my poetry

Differences lie solely between our mind and feet

Our soul has yet to be induced with inspirations from afar

But as time evolved, our differences became clear

Echoes had no resonating effect

It was as bold as if you were whispering in my ear sweet syllables of songs

You spoke to me through inclinations

I couldn’t climb alone

Your voice drove my soul into a bursting flame

If I could I would grasp your hand

Let you feel my warmth

Because this is what you’ve done to me

You ignited a flame so great that only

You can feed

It was all due to your being, your writing

If I could give you this pen in my hand

You would transcend into dreams you wish you had

With me

Because you know our dreams will come true

Through destiny

And tomorrow would be a mistake

If you weren’t by my side walking

I only stand for who you are to me

Take a step with me and together

We’ll discover untouched memories that will live on

But if your memory were to cease

I would spend each day

Reminding you of the story of you and me

I would let my voice carry years of happiness and sadness

Through your ears

You’ll always remember this

There is always someone to live for

Through patience you’ll see what you want

Through yourself you’ll find what you need

I’m here down on my knees with you

Differences lie solely between us

But respect intertwines us

Pages of poetry have no effect if your heart is empty

Let me dab my life into yours and paint

Red, purple, blue and yellow skies

To articulate for you the endless possibilities of words that will inspire your mind

Let me take melodies and beats

Mend them together to create food for your soul

Let me grab your heart infect it with my motivations

So you can live again

If together we speak

Our words will amplify our voices

You’ll stand for yourself

Because you know I could do this for you

And if ever you were to crumble

My cut hands will do it all again for you

My being will be poured into you

You will be molded by your soul

You implemented into me

Because that’s who I am

That’s who you are to me

I would not go back home to my family

I’ve got my own

Because to me you are my home

You are that little girl that stood with steel fists

Breaking down barriers with a flick of your wrists

You are that little girl whose voice intensifies as you speak

You are the girl with eyes engulfed in beauty

And if I could find the difference I have grown to be…

I would say

She is my difference

Because I write for her…my poetry…
