who are you
Slow songs of love
Melodies of church women
Soft humming of kids with tears
Sorrow being the common feeling
All with smiles be faking
Pretending they're strong
Hoping they're not wrong...
For acting up
Death who sent you?
How are you always in our view?
Accident or purpose
You are a burden
Smiles are rare in your presence
You got no patience
Read the rest of the poem Show less
Is it a coincidence
Are you a product of God?
Pain seems to be your food
Broken hearts tend to be your snack
Sometimes you take the whole pack
Sometimes you take the most important
On Some occasions by an instant
You always constant
You give us disappointment
You just come with no appointment
You don't struggle with commitment
Id say I'm flattered
If only you didn't hurt us so much
Please let us know our mistakes
We'll do whatever it takes
Just for less heart breaks

"I know this is a difficult topic for many people, but many people can relate. It reminds me of Gwendolyn Brooks' poem "the mother". I suggest you read it if you haven't. It is also controversial and difficult to read, b…" - November 2017
