5 Star Poetry from Soul Survivor Vol.1: Life is Poetry - Walk w/ Me

Adversity
Rising above Caribbean sized tides with pride
Hurricane pain
On My Campaign
Overcoming hiccups
Eyes not yet on the prize
But on the goal to attain the
Commodities of Ancestors
All things coming full circle
Round the circumference of clenched fists
Raised High
Celebration of achievements
Symbolism
Bereavement
Powerful figures in Spirit
Live infinitely
Cascading messages with purpose
We so persevere
Descendants of chosen tribes
Our time is near

Hidden Ladder
Moving on up
In my attempt to build a portfolio
In this ordeal called Life
You Know
Diversify, reallocate
Insurance for when
The conditions of mankind don't equate
No escape
No wonder me and economy fall under depression
If lucky recession
Proliferating regression
Bells sounds
At the end of sessions
Meaningless tickers move across the screen
It's no wonder wealth is hiding
From me

12
Not even a wrinkle in time could define
The ripple effect of neglect
A negative legacy abound
Desolate hope
A cry for help, the reverberating sound
Hurdles and Mounds
Some make it through the 100 meter dash
A rare instance
Those who traveled 300
Report stories of glory
Strides off the beaten path
Avoiding the trap
Perpetrators wrath
In a blood bath
I ask
Why not strive for the finish line
Deeply rooted in the Divine
Where they played games
Socrates took knowledge from those just South
DNA of man before the fall of Atlantis
Patriarchs and Matriarchs
Origin of civilizations
Wake up to 12
A piece of Salvation

The Cycle
In all efforts to succeed
I always went harder
On my physique was a Starter
Low key Colorado purple rocky
Funny how we used to sweat
off the hottest colors and
You my brother
Preference was a 3XL Goose
While in our grown man stage
It's off the same species
We get loose
Guidelines for a boost
A wise man once warned of a
Second childhood
So when we wear hoods we stifle the growth of
Heads being held high
First signs of maturity
Cast away the big logos
Washing away of insecurities
80's baby jewelry
Clearing room for blessings in Life's Lessons
Infant, Preteen, Adolescents
Influence of the occult
Tainted Adult
Wise senior citizen
The Cycle begins again

Fundamentals of Love
She brings me back to the
Fundamentals of Love
Where intrigue is valued and
The desire to satisfy curiosity
Sets the tone for a fine friendship
Or Courtship for that matter
As emotions scatter
Longing to be aligned
In a zone of comfort
Where Hearts heal with
Blissful rejuvenation
Gotta be the reason she smiles
Never a frown
From words spoken so emphatically
Their semantics profound
Even in the absence of physical interaction
I'm there when she's down
Only to bring her up
Sippin' from my cup of
Love
Where there is more in store
'Cause my Angel eyes can't guarantee
Heartache will exist no more.
