"I Write (SLam edition)"


  

          

i write cuz i'm sick
cuz i got diseased infested words
that ooze like puz from my pen
see the reason i write is because
my vocal cords got cut by that
nigga that didn't want me to tell him
it was ova.
when i write i release all my demons that
constantly seek to sodomize my
soul.
It ain't all good. mainly it's pain.
hurting aching type pain. The type
pain that keeps u alone in the house.
When i write
my pen cries cuz i no longer have
the tears to shed. I am cracked like glass
vases dropped on linolum floors. Shattered

When i write
i die a thousand deaths seeking solace in
the stillness at the end of my poems.
Like china blossoms on spring days.
I fall effortlessly off a cliff into nothingness.

i wanted to taste of heaven
but instead i was served bitter fruit
on a bed of regret.

i can't keep shuffling backwards
over the same sour grounds
Suckling excuses like nectur from
the breast of misery.

So i wrote.

my head is pounding like
death knocking at the door
in Beethovan's 5.
So i write to silence that noise

infidelity is all he promised me
hidden lies, sequestered truth

See i know the uglier truth of what
shoulda been said.
This is not just a poem
this is part of the life i’ve led

Mainly i’m just a lazy ass nigga with a fetish
for poets and emcees and a talent
for writing

my path is littered with half-written love poems
and a mouth full of forgotten metaphors i called
out in my sleep

if u've ever read my writings then i'm sorry
cuz i aint that deep

i coulda been more but i aint
shit
i was slashin wrists as i wrote
this

see...i told u i was sick

*silence*



i simply want to be the love song dangling from her lips-Saul Williams

Thats kinda where I am. I don't think my writing has the same effect when I spit it. I'd rather write it & let the reader form their own interpretations. Plus I don't think I do my pieces justice when I read them so I usually have other people read em'. Thats the main reason I have yet to do an open mic.
I feel ya..... Keep Flowin'......

maad feelin' you on this...

"i can't keep shuffling backwards
over the same sour grounds
Suckling excuses like nectur from
the breast of misery.

So i wrote."

and concerning reading our works, yeah...I sometimes think it is best for others to read it, be the voice for us instead of the actual writer reading it all the time...

Peace

Damnnnn!

You have an "artful" way with words that aligns the imagination with thought patterns -- Like Feng Shui! ... :^)

Good reasons for writing too!

your words flowes with such strenght and emotion, the second and forth stanzas just stood out to me, stay positive...
