Aiesha Freela Poems

He broke my heart
now its raining
try not to rub it in
...

Sometimes I feel like I don't belong anywhere
That it will take so long for me to get somewhere

At times I feel so heavy-hearted
...

Those men, holding us women back
Thinking we're not good enough
Thinking we're not smart enough
I hate the doubt
...

Despair, pain, sadness, heartache
I’m dying inside
Can anyone hear me?
...

All the things I’ve done before this
They don’t mean a thing
All the words spoken before this
Won't be said again
...

there is no one here
I'm in the middle of the street
wounded
hurt
...

I wish I could change
I wish I could change
I wish I could stop saying the same old things
I wish I could be who you want me to be
...

jump, jog, stretch
jog, stretch, blocks
stretch, blocks, baton
blocks, baton, start
...

I don't understand
Why people cry
Why people get angry
Why people hate
...

All this noise
can anyone hear me?

Shouting at the top of my lungs!
...
