Bitter-Sweet


Bitter-Sweet You did the very thing you said you'd never do I keep asking myself now how can I trust you My all was given to you, every ounce How could you bring her into our life unannounced Gave me broken promises True desires unfulfilled Did you do it just for the thrill? When times were good, thinking of ways you could hurt me made me ill But you would make me feel secure So then I knew I would never feel that pain again for sure You knew what I've gone through before My last nigga treated me like less than dirt Nothing in this world is worth my hurt My loyalty, my faithfulness In the end you just made me feel worthless

Aspire to inspire before I expire. Poetry has moved me since my early teenage years as I would even sit in class writing poetry tuning everyone out. I was bullied pretty much all throughout high school & that’s when I really began writing out my struggles, my feelings, & my pain. My inspiration comes from everyday life. This is my peace. This is my expression. This is my diary.
