Broken Love

Broken Love

A Poem by Andre Waters II

Undoubtedly I'm the hottest to make it out yet
But logically They like homie you not out yet.
I said no im free of the evil
Deceitful so see through
Unlike the other cats still out here on the streets though.
No other options, sell drugs pour alcohol
Make mornings useless to what my uncle was doing at 4am.
Benz on the news, gunmen on loose
All cause a girl told him come over i want you.
Love can be a bad thing if not done correctly
Problem was these dude give damn cause they're petty
I could see he loved his kids but his girl didn't love him.
Love wouldn't want you to go and break up a family.
Your family themselves can go through same insanity.
The back is killing with the problems at dead weight
The legs shaking after a dip in icy lakes
Body aching from the food you never ate
Eyes shaded cause you sleeping is sleepless
You're sleeping with sirens, they keep you wake.
Running on coffee, headache is coming often
Poorly prepared but hopeful to be spared,
Poorly equipped but immune to the dispare.
Your own strength is your pure strength, nothing compares
When did it ever come to metal piercing through thin air
I pray no bullets tag me, pray they go well passed me
Well wide of my loved places filled with loved faces
Love makes those memories go through minds like races
I just imagine a world where we wouldn't face this, a world where no one is faceless.

I've used warning signs, focal points and makeshift gauges. I've moved further than I ever thought I could, but I'm still missing a lot more than I thought I would. That doesn't stop me from moving cl.. more..
