A Kenny K. Royal Poem: Handcuffed

your love trapped me
had me lookin stupid.
or was it all me?
just blaming you for it

confined to just you
not able to stray far
stuck in this lie
even as it fell apart

your love was like handcuffs
and i just couldn't break free
but something has snapped
and I'm gettin hit by reality

your love was all fake
and i finally can see that
I'm takin off these handcuffs
and I'm never coming back

you had me handcuffed to you
and believing all your lies
but now that they're off...
no more lies, just say goodbye.

A Kenny K. Royal Poem- Love... No More!

You took me for granted,
you wasted my time.
talked all this shit
and filled my head with lies.

I gave you the best part of me
for almost 2 fuckin years.
I loved you and gave you all of me,
but loving you always brought tears.

I dont know why I did it,
staying around for all this time.
looking past all the bad signs!
I must of been outa my mind.

looking back on all this,
I know one good thing came out of it...
cuz I'll be DAMNED if I ever
let another nigga put me through this shit!

we had something good... we had something nice... and I bet you thought... I'd be there my whole life... sorry to correct you... but I need you to know... the love I give... won't be wasted on you anymore.

A Kenny K. Royal Poem: Sit In Silence

Don't talk just listen to the silence,
Hear my thoughts race,
And my heart pounding'.
Look into my eyes,
see my sorrow,
Look in to my soul,
I'll lose a little more by tomorrow.
Don't talk just sit in silence
Hear my tears fall
As I sit hear crying.
Thoughts in my head got me confused
Forgive and forget?
....I feel so used!
No one to talk to,
No one to trust,
Just sit hear alone,
Protecting myself is a must.
Shhh, don't talk
My emotions are hiding
I'm just gonna sit here...
Sit here in silence!

A Kenny K. Royal Poem: Confessions of a Broken Heart

My dads Birthday was yesterday. After calling him and speaking with him shortly, I wrote this poem. I don't usually write poems but this just came out of me like water. I hope you guys like it. It's called "Confessions of a Broken Heart"...

"Thoughts racing fast through my mind
as I'm gazing down the aisle.
That my future would mend all memories
torn between father and child"

These lyrics replay in my mind
Showing me the inevitable truth.
The relationship between me and my dad
Is pretty much over... basically through.

As long as my lover is a man
We will never be the same.
But I can't change what makes me happy.
This shit is driving me insane.

I've always wanted to make him happy
I wanted to make him proud.
As I discovered who I really am
Those dreams got shot down.

"I want my unborn son to be like my daddy.
I want my husband to be like my daddy.
There is no one else like my daddy.
And I thank you for loving me."

Beyoncé sang these words
That are very close to my heart.
Every time I hear them
My emotions fall apart.

My dad did love me
I Just don't know where that love went.
After I told him I was gay
I never again noticed it.

But it is true
My father is a good man.
I won't deny that truth
He's an amazing husband.

This is why I want both my son and husband to be like him
Not the "him" I know today
But the "him" he was
And could've been.

I just need to realize
That my dad doesn't like my kind.
And just because I'm gay
Our relationship will fade with time.

So I guess this is where my realization begins
With my dad, I must part.
Just had to tell my confessions,
The confessions of my broken heart.
