My freestyle to you ♥
i've spent the past few weeks citing poetry in my head
At times stopping with my peeps, allowing them to listen to the words that seem to drip off my tongue like a leaky faucet that makes a lovely lullaby beat
making you refuse to get it fixed
The words and tunes seem to be fighting with my hand
As i attempt to keep from writing whats in my head, a simple request to get back into the swings of things and all I can think about is.....
Ohhhhh Momma i wanna siiiiiiiing!!!
My sister use to sing it around the house.
Her voice so sweet she was my Nike and i wanted to not just do but be like her
So i would listen and tune into her voice
My mother would sit with me for hours and teach me how to breath
See back then money was tight and it was only she that could show me to my dreams
In the choir stand i didn't know i was so loud
My members would tell me to stop screaming and to settle down
When i would speak they would sshhh me to
Telling me that no one wanted to hear from you
i withered away quickly becoming silent in Gods plan
Seeking some peace and quiet
i found it but that fire in my spirit i couldn't find that damn pilot
i would holler in the store, in the car, at my house and yours
Not realizing that baby, sometimes the things you hide, you cant keep from yourself
It oozes out of you like blood from a flesh wound but its beauty is like the rose in full bloom
Smells sweeter than your grandma's perfume
i aint got a band, a piano, or even a drum
but this tune in my head has got me on the run
And though i know this
i surrender to not knowing anything at all
As my left foot goes, i pray that my right doesn't make me fall
And that's just the reality of life
As with my last breath i will shout and dance
Just to make my life with God right
All with you.....
