I noticed

I like to take my time.

I'm very meticolous.

I'm very observant.

One may even argue that I'm asstute.

I don't intentionally go looking for flaws.

I just look for the truth.

I'm fully aware.

I took my time and I noticed that you actually care.

I noticed you going up to bat for me.

I noticed you looking out for me in my times of need.

I noticed you noticing that warm light  I'm emitting from deep from within me. 

You see something special in me.

You want to bring it all the way out of me.

Let me tell you that I'm trying but it's not an easy task.

Thank you though.

It's becoming less difficult.

I'm starting to shine with ease.

I noticed you noticed that about me too and that makes you pleased.

Well I just would like to take time out to say thanks for noticing me.

Maybe its you

How many haters do have?

How many people do think generally does not like you?

If you love yourself the way you claim you do then thier shade shouldn't effect you.

What if I told you that no one is coming for you.

What if I told told you that none notices anything you do.

Would you still say that you have haters?

Would you still feel that they are targeting you?

What if I told you that "you" are the mean one.

You are the mean one.

Its always been you.

They wasn't flashing you the stink eye.

They didn't even notice your post.

They only asked you a question because you seemed intelligent to them.

They asked what are those because they wanted a pair.

You are indeed special but you not the center of the universe.

Half the time you think someone is hating on you....they really do not care.

Your not that important to occupy a space in someone's head.

Stop accusing people of throwing shade.

 Try focusing on yourself instead.

Look yourself in the mirror and say it's me.

After you've accepted that truth then your you'll begin to notice how more simple your life will be.

Silent response

 If your waiting with bated breath for an answer then stop waiting and start accepting.

Sometimes silence is your answer.

If you request something and get no response...then the deafining  silence is your answer.

If much time passes and they do not check in then they've moved on and checked in else where.

That space you once shared is now an  empty  void.

All  the things you once shared are now just faded memories from different spaces.

Once a dependable face is now just a blurry image in the dark.

You once were in sync now you can't get a read on them.

You went from daily communication to being phased completely out.

Sometimes when they say nothing they've said everything.

The circumstances have changed.

Thought processes have evolved.

Neither one of you are the same person you once were.

It's evident that their not looking back.

They started out their journey with you and now their headed in different direction on a different path.

LET ME POLISH YOUR CROWN

 I sat back and watched it fall.

I played a significant role in not upholding you in your highest regard.

I was present while you were being mocked and shamed.

I think at times I even joined in the fray.

I did nothing to protect your honor.

I can't speak for all brothas but I can speak for me.

From this day forward I declare and decree that you will be shown your proper respect by all especially in the presence of me.

Black woman you are a Goddess and nothing short of perfection.

Life begins with you.

You alone hold the key to the kingdom on the physical and spiritual plane.

You deserve to be adored for all your majestic  splendor.

You've had to be strong for way too long.

You deserve  to allowed to vulnerable and be handled delicately.

I vow to give you my all and defend you with my last breath.

Black woman you've given the world everything.

You deserve nothing less.

Now let me adjust your crown.

Let me restore it's luster.

Let me add one jewel for every time you were made to suffer or feel pain.

I vow your crown will never get tarnished again.

MY WORLD

Everyone wants to make an impact.

Everyone stives their best to turn the tide.

Life is a fickled journey.

A never ending ride.

I come in contact with so much information and brand new faces.

I often feel like I'm traveling the desert in search of an Oasis.

I'm parched and need to be revitalized.

Sometimes I become overwhelmed by the suffering I'm constantly seeing.

I want to become a  beacon.

Give hope.

Offer healing and reassure one's whom are filled with sorrow and doubt.

Then realize I'm only one man.

I can do only what I can.

I'm not a superhero.

I can't save the world but I can reshape my mind and move with vigour.

I can choose my responses wisely.

I can motivate myself.

I can change the room by changing me.

I can escape any form of oppression by believing I'm free.

I can be pro prosperity.

I can attract everything I desire and need simply by believing in "me".

NOT YOUR BROTHER

 He went to the same academy you went to.

He received the exact same training you did.

He pledged the same oath you did.

He swore to serve and protect just you you did.

He promised to have  your back and you promised him the same.

You both wear blue but that where it stops.

You believe in justice for "all"  but he does not.

You do it by the book.

He makes his rules

You turn it all in.

He skims his of the top.

When you see a man who is black you just see man.

When he sees a black man he sees a potential suspect.

He wants imditate action.

He views him as a threat.

He won't call for back up and doesn't believe in speaking to them nice.

As far as he's concerned he's saving the taxpayers money by ending a black life because they don't matter.

All he needs is your cosign to seal the deal.

What should you do?

He is a cop but is he like you?

He's not your brother.

He's a disgrace to the badge.

He the opposite of everything you stand for.

He's not like you.

You owe him no alligence.

Your concious tearing you apart.

Don't uphold the brotherhood.

Listen to your heart.

He's slime and not worthy to stand next to you.

If your superiors say he acted justly then ask yourself if that outfit is still for you.

Take a stand.

End Police brutality.

I got me.

You don't see the bigger picture.

You can't grasp my motives.

Your oblivious to my methods.

When you look at me and listen to me all "you" see is madness.

You think I'm a nut.

A weirdo... big time.

You counted me out in your mind and left me for dead.

Well I'm here to let you know that you can go on and go right ahead.

Stay over there with your doubt and distain towards me.

I don't live for your cheers and I'll never cry over your boos.

I don't need your approval or accpetance.

Its really alright if you think I'm extra, basic, or way over the top.

I don't live for you.

I live for me and I'm never going to stop.

So stay in your box and keep on silently judging me like you've been doing from the jump.

I promise you I don't care.

I never needed you.

I'll never be in need of you.

I expect nothing from you.

If I have to walk alone for the rest of my days than that's alright by me.

If anybody in the world's going to have my back it'll be me.
