This poem is from my 2018 project, Poetic Gift. It’s the intro to my project. I’ll leave the written version below the audio. It’s still available on all streaming platforms. Tell me what you think in the comments. Poetic Gift
Lost:
I done had family and friends turn on me for a piece of change
So you’ll never understand my pain
Never understand what I go through
Once I thought I was the shit
I seen so many treat me like shit
In the same breath try to cheer me up
I swear everyone I’m around is so bipolar
Mind so fucked up make me want to turn my body to the color rojo
Have you ever had your mind put on lock down make me feel like I’m drowning and my legs just kicking like a dojo
I can’t bare to feed em no more I got to get my dough up
Before I grab a nena and make that bitch throw up
Can’t tell the real from the fake
So I just stick to myself
So many wonder why I’m depressed
Cause so many tried to put my gift to rest
So all I’m left with is this stress
Everyday feels like I’m about to take my last breath
I’m just so lost in this world
But with this poetic gift I know one day I’ll be found
