Help (Poem)
I’m surrounded by plastic
They stick around like they elastic
But not here when it get drastic
That’s classic
I hate people that’s not long lasting
This life is fast you got to keep up
I been trying to make a come up
But you left me all alone
I got a lot roaming through my dome
I was never in the streets like a cone
But it feel like it
It’s like I had many around me
They tried to change me
Then they left me
It’s crazy how your around snakes all your life
This don’t feel right
Pops want to help me out
How do I talk to the one who put me in it
My feelings is tinted
Meaning they Dark
You turned your back and it hurt my heart
You left your mark
Now leave
Just let me be
Cause me and you can’t see eye to eye
Got me dying on the inside
And lighting a fire on the outside
I was thrown out in the water and I ain’t no Michael phelps
I didn’t have no help
I got to do it myself
Help is the last thing I need from a enemy
Cause family is overrated
And I hate it
It’s all about K. Exum
New Years Resolution (Poem)
I don’t know what 2019 holds but I hope it’s blessings
Lord knows I been through enough stressing
I just hope I see many blessings
But if there is nothing already set then I’m going to work till I get mine
Spent too much time waiting on the sideline
For a time that the little arm never touched
Spent too many years relying on people to be my judge
Had me looking like a cripple with no crutch
Just falling off my game
Some days I just wish it didn’t take this long for me to learn my lesson
But I guess it all comes with time
I just been trying to grind
But some days it just feel like I’m scared to shine
Always been the type to be quiet until someone approaches me
My comfort zone is something I just need to leave
I know I can make it if I just put the work in and believe
But comfort is the thing that can’t be in my life right now
The things that I create i already know I can stand out
But then again I’m just one of the many artist in the crowd
And I’m not shit until I step on the stage and speak out loud
Always been the type of kid to be in the crowd
Not the one to be standing on stage
My New Years resolution is to perform
Abused (Spoken Word)
Some people are physically abused
See that’s the difference between me and you
I was mentally abused
And I don’t know what to do
I just want to be through
Then I look to god like when will I be through
I never get an answer that’s when the suicidal thoughts start to play through my mind
I often dream about making it to the grand stage so I can shine
But I can barely escape my mind
So how will I ever let it all go and really grind
They say wait for your time
But time is the only thing I’m scared won’t last
I’m held back by the past
And I just wish I can finally let go
So much shit that I regret
So much I wish I could take back
I wish I was man enough to stand up for myself
But I wasn’t and I looked for everyone to give me help
And no one reached out now I just blame myself
I’m just so trapped in my own mind
Behind The Scenes: Dark Poems
I feel like my poetry be so dark and moody because I went through a tough time but I didn’t have a voice back then. So now I’m letting out those feelings that I had back then when I was voiceless. Other than that I sometimes do storytelling that’s emotional in a way to attract the audience and give some type of feeling. You know a poem that connects your situations to the character in the piece. I don’t know why I do it like that. I guess because that’s what attracts me to certain poems and song is the passion displayed by the artist or actors in the video. You know when that certain song play where it just grabs you and pulls you closer and make you fully understand what’s going on. That’s the feeling I try to create in some of my pieces.
