From the paths of the paths to the heart of my demands is the love that i give to the best of my ability from my sheltered life away from the homeless strife my mother could not cure to save me as i walk in this life alone i take my own hand i walk hand in hand with myself do i need anyone elses help no i do not for i see it on my own from my mistakes to the things i break i see them no need to show me i no the rights from the wrongs the good and the bads im not an ox no need to guide me a child i was no longer am i im a woman after her own heart to the man that wins me from the one that lost me you never had me from the start mother, father thank you for who im today i would not be if you had not met from your light skin mom to your dark skin dad i love you i dont know much about you i see you in photographs so lovely was she so handsome was he but not even you own me for who does cept my angel who walks beside me daily in you i rest my daily walking in life i learn something new i try new things im not afraid of the change that life can bring to me in and instant sometimes i spit fire other times i spit love if i wanted you to you i would go if i needed you i would say so if i had to have you i would my confidence is high but humbleness i show but from all my crimes to my childhood lies to the body of my soul from my head to my toes my heart i lead with down the path from the path of the paths til the last day i laugh take my soul use it as you might for once i wont put up a fight I do not need shine or wealth, just a pen and some paper for my health |

This was a very deep poem with an intimate and personal touch that only the author could completely understand, yet we as the readers can only begin to understand... something like words = a crystal ball into one's life. "If this grand panaorama before me is what you call God... then God is not dead." |
