No title, but about talents and self-appreciation

Untitled

 

I have a lot of talents, but finding a man isn’t one of them.

Thoughts come together with a paper and pen,

But my mind is chaotic when loving ‘em.

 

My voice sings with clarity,

But it screams when exasperated.

My words are penned with sincerity,

But crooked when infuriated.

 

I was born with a lot of talents, and

This is how I stay sane.

It’s God’s way of bridling my emotions,

And hiding away all the pain.

 

But sometimes I would like to learn the art,

Of how to find a man.

And not have my assets get in the way,

Overwhelming them because they can.

Where his eyes meet my mind, and appreciate

My intellect and soul,

And in each new rhyme I don’t have to write

About losing self-control…

 

Or why I can’t get a guy,

Maybe it’s their loss I pass them by?

Because my talents shine with or without you,

and I stay strong through everything you do…

 

I have a lot of talents, but finding a man isn’t one of them.

Yet these minimal, simplistic minds can never equate,

to the words I create,

The voice that sings, of love and hate,

The novels I develop,

The intensity that never waits….

 

For I do, hoping to find the right man,

But in the meantime I create masterpieces,

Because I can.

Self-love and appreciation is what gets me by,

Until the time comes for me…

 to meet the right guy…

aaahh, writers block sucks. But, I hope this will be the end of it. It's true though I can sing, write novels and poetry, dance etc. but I don't a thing about finding the right man.

Sweets I really think the problem is you try to hard and focus on it too much... be yourself, do your thing and most importantly love the person you are and it will eventually happen. You are a wonderfully lady deserving of someone who will love and respect you.

Writer's block is horrible-I've had it for months! Keep trying and you'll find the right man!

I would love to learn the art of finding a good woman who thinks I'm interesting. I've never been able to do that--never even come close. "Self-love and appreciation is what gets me by". For me, it's much more simple: hope. Hope that things will defy all odds and get better. Maybe I will get somewhere in life.
Maybe I'll be loved.
Maybe.
Your words are truly beautiful. I agree with your info page about how women have a natural, God-given beauty, and they have all the power that goes with it. Women have the power to make or break their men. To make or break any man, in fact. It's part of their spirit, I think

Writing is my catharsis, my way to bridle my emotions. I am an intense person and being an artist, I see life through a different set of lenses, and many can not comprehend my view on life. Kena me.. more..
