Jeanette Matthews Poems

Tell me what does family mean to you
Is it all the little special things one another do
Or is it the bond that one another has
Maybe its the love from one generation to another one it pass
...

I am apart of history
History lies deep down inside of me
I am like Martin Luther King
Just like him I'm going to let freedom ring
...

A single mother working two jobs was you
No one in this world could stand a chance to do what you do
You worked hard to put food on our plate
Showed up to every school game not once were you late
...

Should I wait for you to fall in love with me
Or should I just forget about it and let it be
I don't want to wait for heartbreak
Because you and I both know this is something I can't take
...

I feel stupid for letting you go
And L feel even more stupid for you coming close
I feel as if nothing in the world are promised to someone
And its either fall in love or be stuck dreaming all by your lonesome
...

You left this world and I didn't share a tear
I don't know why I didn't feel pain but I felt fear
I felt as if you belonged where you were
And God arms surrounded by nothing but love and care
...

Committment, how could that word not mean as much to you
Tell me why don't you show it to me as much well like I've shown it to you
No, no don't jump to conclusion because I'm not saying that you don't treat me right
I'm just saying you should have warn me and we would have avoided this whole fight
...

How could you lie to me with a straight face not caring about how I feel
How could you lay there in my arms and tell me that those feeling were so real
And how could you tell me that everything was okay when you know that it never exist
Just tell me baby how could you say that we were in love when all you did was simply resist
...

I waited for your call but the phone didn't ring
I can't believe your definition of the word mean
I cried for two whole night's and you don't care
And a shoulder to lean on is something you don't share
...

I surrender to love with my hands in the air
Because I have found someone who will truly be there
Love I am ready and willing to do as you say
I really don't care about the price I have to pay
...

You knocking at my door but should I let you in
You were here once before your my enemy not my friend
Quit knocking at my door no one is here
Leave me alone, PLEASE don't come near
...

I have been number two that I can't take this any more
You don't love me because if you did there would be no one before
I'm too exclusive to come second in your life
If I have to wait on love then I should wait on being a wife
...

Stand up straight, never slouch
Always glide when you sitting on a couch
Please do not do that
And greet royalty as royalty greet you back
...

Tell me why did you lie when I already knew the truth
Out of curiosity I have to know am I that less important to you
If you wasn't ready to be in a relationship you should have let me know
Because I'm not the type of person that don't quite understand the word no.
...

What happened to the chemistry
Remember when nothing could seperate you and me
How we laughed at simple things
And how I was you queen and you were my king
...

16.

I'm sorry if I hurt your feeling and made you cry
But I couldn't tell you the truth so I had to tell you a lie
You mean more to me than you think you do
So I lied to you to protect the fact that I love you
...

Shaneka told me you was creepin
And how you would always leave while I'm sleepin
You said that it wasn't true
And I'm your girl so I believed you
...

What all I am to you, is what I need to know
Do you see beyound the way my eye glow
Tell me what makes you feel the way you do
Please tell me how did I first attracted you
...

Is I'm the reason you are not having fun
Is I'm the reason that your job and life bum
Tell stepdaddy am I'm the reason why your pay is low
Is I'm the reason momma don't treat you the way she did years before
...

I'm questioning myself about love
Because I'm starting to woder do we have what it consist of
I'm asking myself whether we should stay or take some time
I mean how things are going I think we should just clear our minds
...

The Best Poem Of Jeanette Matthews

Family

Tell me what does family mean to you
Is it all the little special things one another do
Or is it the bond that one another has
Maybe its the love from one generation to another one it pass
Family is more than a six letter word
It is a word that often need to be heard
Family is more than realitives they are friends
Friend that will stick with you to the very very end
A family bond is stronger than ever
Because it can overcome any stormy weather
A family stand tall no matter how hard they fall
Uniting as one when their backs against the wall
That is simply what a family do
Helping you become a better you
So when you think about the word family
Think beyound just the background history
Like they say a empty house is not a home
And a true faithful family never stands alone
