crushed
society demands
a different kind of woman
a different kind of man
poverty
raped violated molested
starved and hurt they hid
they lie they shun they shadow
in greed to numb their minds
‘cause life is hard
and hard is waking up
at two in the morning
unable to recognize the face
in the passing mirror
another knock at the door
its you
another woman smitten
scant clad and scent on him
she cries she screams she sobs
and is off searching for him
again
the poet in sigh
journeyed morning to night
rumbling from sundown to morning light
a ladder emerges
creativity a trinity in sight
needing someone
to pull you though
to battle the demons
you vigorously love to hide
in the ‘soul of you inside’
finding the words you say you lost
I didn’t give up on you
You gave up on me
