Family
Never had I known what family was.
Had an idea, but never had the real deal.
Thought something, knew something was missing.
Can you feel the heat
Can you feel the heat
From the beat
The beat of my heat
It is strong and resounding
I remember cuddling late at night
I remember cuddling late at night
And I remember, he undressed me once
I remember, lovemaking on the vanity sink
And I remember, we danced together once
How dare you say I’m not that much
How dare you say I’m not that much
Of a woman as you thought I was.
All I know is survival
I don’t know how to quit
I don’t know what it is like to give up
I know you’ve been waiting for me
I know you’ve been waiting for me~
I’m coming, best believe~
You’ll see God
I stand on the sidelines
I stand on the sidelines and watch the goings on.
I see happiness, I see love, I see a family.
I yearn for a strong black
I yearn for a strong black
Man to just hold me
To love me, to understand
Me, a black woman
It has been 2 days now
It has been 2 days now
My heart aches
But I don’t want to cry
My mind continuously thinks
And sometimes I want to die
It’s late; very late
It’s late; very late
But I can’t sleep
I lay with my hair
Sprawled overhead
Loneliness, it seems so infinite
Loneliness, it seems so infinite
And so do these tears
My eyes can’t focus
I’m blinded by the fear
Save me, save me, I beg
My head rages with thoughts,
My head rages with thoughts,
Feelings and ideas
Thoughts of how to return or unite
My Pen is mighty & fast
My Pen is mighty & fast
I write down all my feelings
Then at last ~ I can breath
With relief that they are out of my head
