Poem Commentary

This is a response to a fellow poet named TARAINK.  Please read Taybear first.

Taybear, Goodbye!

She says she wishes she never met Taybear;  but I’m glad she did.

 

He came, he saw, he conquered.  Now she feels, she has no more, to give.

 

She claims she can’t get away from him.  Well I’m writing this to tell my friend,

 

Stop being ‘confused’ when it comes to your heart.  It’s your mind caught in a whirlwind.

 

He didn’t sneak in.  Like many of us, we let someone into our psych.

 

Don’t single yourself out. We all are susceptible.  Don’t believe the hype.

 

 

Ok, you’ve met Taybear.  Hell, he met you too.

 

You are never, anyone’s prisoner.  Only you holds on to you.

 

He’s not keeping you close.  You’re not letting youself escape.

 

Of course you can leave Taybear.  He doesn’t have you duck-taped.

 

 

You say you’re with Taybear.  Sounds to me that you’re not.

 

We complete ourselves, cause sometimes we’re all we GOT!

 

Wutta-ya-mean, you’re not yourself?  Wutter-you, some kinda robot?

 

You got yourself thinking, he’s the provider of what you need.  Well, he’s not.

 

No one can hurt us.  We allow ourselves to be hurt.

 

Your success is because of YOU!  What are you, some mindless skirt.

 

When you fail, hell, it’s because you didn’t do something right.

 

Taybear, he’s gone.  Go on, with your life.

LE$, I love the message that you scream through this piece. We are the author of every frown on our face. We allow the enemy to take over our cheerful spirits and convert us into miserable people! You hit the nail on the head with this one! Very insightful, very inspirational!

Thanx EB, when I read her poem, it just raised my hairs. It had nothing to do with Taybear, it had EVERYTHING to do with a person claiming they are not in control of their feelings and emotions.

YOU know what you are definitely right. the part where it says " you are not letting yourself escape" is so F***** true Because i think i can get away if i really want to. im just hanging around thinking that he'll come around.

I'm glad you took it the way I meant it. Just like I told RyneishaB, I would tell my daughters the same thing; and they're are older than you. You're too young for that. You better live girl! Phuk dat nigga! Why? Cause it seems like he said phuk you a long time ago.

I love this because its so true...we tell ourselves that we need someone in our life but truth is we dont need them we want them & people make the mistake of trying to change a person we cant...we are in control of ourselves and we have to know that....Very great poem!!!

Thanx for the feedback. I hope she doesn't take this the wrong way. I would say the same thing to my daughters.

Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
