New Poem: "King In The Light"

The King
The LightThe Darkness
The Prince

King In The Light
A year and a half ago I'd be all too ready to body someone lyrically
 I'd calculate every bar, punchline, simile and metaphor
 and make them hit so hard that they may feel it physically
 I'd MAKE them hate me
 I'd MAKE them have to see me as a prime target and enemy
....then I'd drop verses that'd show that they'd have no choice but to give me the victory
 my mind would be consumed with war games and schemes
 commiting arson with the pen towards any in they team
 but....I'm not that man anymore
 the one consumed by nothing but anger, rage, and hate
I'm not that man anymore
 the type ready to wild out and challenge all
 and be quick to get up in they face....
I keep saying that, but its still far too tempting...
to attempt to kill, murk, destroy
 and utterly ANNIHILATE all who oppose me
 who I know are below me
 sometimes, it honestly feel like not retaliating is phony....
but still, I hear God's voice in my ear as I write
 saying you getting listeners, but u aint doing it right
 why be a dark prince when u could be #King in the light...
why be a dark prince when u could be #King in the light.

Poem: "The BreakDown"

Happened to find this in the archives, its an old love poem that I wrote nearly a year and a half ago
let me know if y'all like it tho.



The breakdown

As our souls slowly drift from each other's reach
Both confused
Unsure of what we need
In life
You may think that our union was light
But truthfully I began to see u as wife
And it is for this reason
That despite it all
Our rises
Our falls
Our mistakes
And faults
All the hatin'
Outside insanity
Situations that kept us from coexisting romantically
I am still so called stubborn and so called bull headed enough to say
I love you
So despite all the drama
Despite all the pain
The haters and the lames
Friends broads and the dames
And despite everything
In my heart the word love will remain
Synonymous with your name
So miss lady
My once and yet coveted rose
My comfort in the midst of my highs and my lows
Who's moods and mindstates afflict my soul
Just know that
If and when we meet again
It shall be the moment our love begins...
Again....
