I never had to face a situation like I did last night, I thought racism was out there, I didn’t believe it was in my world, in my school, sitting across from me. How can I express my feelings? How can I even speak? I shake just thinking about it. Racism. The poem I wrote [...]

see this skin
this white, peachy skin
it does not rule this world
it does not deserve more or less
it is not above
it is not all powerful
underneath it is
veins
muscles
kidneys
lungs
a heart
when you cut it, pierce it
it bleeds
red
see that man
that man you call a nigger
that man that you consider the dirt between your toes
because his skin
is the colour of mocha
of [...]

leave me behind
with all your lies
all I ask for is
silence
no more whispers
shut up
Shut Up
get me out of here
what did I ever do to you
I feel myself burning up
you’re all fools
but
what if it’s not true
what if the only fool
is me
the heat blurs my vision
all I hear are whispers
Shut UP
SHUT UP!
the voices in my head
reverberate your words
a [...]

“I fought with a stranger and I met myself
I opened my mouth and I heard myself
It can get pretty lonely when you show yourself
Guess I could have made it easier on myself
But I could never follow”

Part Two- The Strike

Speak! (the way you want)

I articulate
because I like to be well spoken
Not to appear superior but to make myself clear
Lately something has been bothering me. I’ve been told I speak too formal, pretentious, high… I really don’t know how to describe it, but it really frustrates me when people say that. I love words, expanding my vocabulary and especially learning. I [...]
Do You Believe In Magic?

In this day and age where people are just strangers on the street, wars seem on the verge of eruption, the world grows hotter and money is the only form of measuring success where can we find magic?
I remember reading stories when I was a child about different worlds, far of places, where heroes [...]

I know at first I was writing about nothing important little observations here and there, but that’s not really my writing or what I’m about. I think its hard to get personal on the Internet, but I hope that that first piece of poetry shows that I’m not just about fluff. I love writing poetry, [...]
