But a Dream

The saddest thing about being me is the fact that I can't see past my misery I linger on what could have beens and what ifs instead of living in everyday bliss bitchin about what I don't have and what I cant see instead of making life into what I want it to be but I digress it isn't as simple as it seem no one will give a chance so life is but a dream no I'm not a yuppy ,a park slope kid brownstone having uptown party guy but living is not living when the perks are never given hard to make ends meets when the ends never meet justify me but putting me into a never ending statistic , black male But I digress it isn't as simple as it seem no one will understand because life is but a dream

New Poetry : Substance

Substance

by Antoine Clyburn Jr

I just don't get the meaning
behind objects of Affections

Correlation meaning
suicidal subjection

IF you ask me , there is no
Substance to go about any of it

Guy chase girl only to sleep with her friend
girl takes him back and cheat with his brother ben


your too thin, or your too fat
people brainwashing people
whats up with that ,

being me is a crime because its
not who you are

living in ignorance being blind
is the right

but ignorance is bliss
when it helps hug your pillow at night
the substance is gone , inside it feels so wrong
