Unloved Beloved
standing hand in hand
 my brother is my love
 unwanted children 
 tagged like cattle
 my teacher 
 my wisedom
 bigger than the love she showed
 softer than the words she spoke
 lifted to the holy home of grandmother
 smokey summer night air
 our laughter was the melody she hummed in the mornings
 holding us close to her heart
 as we hid from the phantoms
 war cries
 hell fire
 man destroying man
 abandoning  grandmother
 her earthy scent
 of spring rain
 still held in my braids
 waiting for the mother
 who left us silently
 without a face
 a smile
 to remember
 without a trail of crumbs to follow
 entering the city of stars
 which shined brighter in her eyes
 when her love stroked her beauty
 penetrating her heart with honey words
 holding her near the dark corners of his mind
 penetraiting me with his eyes
 lechery is not left unnoticed
 my voice became the blunt istrument
 that ended his breath
 can a simple hello bruise?
 i will not take the chance
 oh but how the words of the masters 
 spoke to my silence
 but not my beauty
 did i reflect my mother?
 ignorant love
 left my womb
 a fluttering heart
 a gift that settled and turned
 inside the cozy home i made for him
 kept him safe from the lecherous
 castle
 caring for the woman
 with tears still held in their stary eyes
 hearts that of a child
 keeping my master of lovehappy
 carrying the roles of tainted money
 limping from the soreness between my legs
 a new pain over came the other
 as my love punched into my chest
 breaking the gift i thought he'd handle with care
 falling to my knees trying to find the pieces of my heart 
 will i always be 
 the unloved beloved
