Black Poetry : Bet You Thought...

[Angela22]

Bet you thought I'd care

Bet you thought I'd feel bad

But man, I swear, that attempt was so sad


You say you hate me

So tell me

Why you still looking my way?

Keep my name out ya mouth, bruh

I'd bet you'd have nothing to say

'Cause from then til now

I own your thoughts

Like the sun does the day

But like your words, they're trash

So Ima throw 'em away


Your insults, they're weak son

Just like that thing you call a personality

Scratch that, you have none

You're void, just like your reality

Keep sleeping, stay snoozing

You and ya boys all losing


I'd say, you think you know

But I don't even know if you think

Bet you've perceived less in your lifetime

Than I do before a single blink


From the inside out

A Phake Philosopher

All you've given is rotten

Wait til life catches up

And leaves you

Like you should me

Alone and forgotten

 

[Angela22]

Ya boys validate you

On all you do and all you say

Y'all stay stroking each others "egos"

Funny, I ain't know you swung that way

But I don't lose no sleep

Not for losers, nor for creeps

Keep messin' around with me, you gon' find I don't play


If you looked exactly like your soul

Like the sickness you spew

I bet you still wouldn't understand

Why you're told you have no clue

You're an infinite joke

And you ain't even funny

Like the corniest punchline

By a comic and his dummy

Too bad there's no curtains

No calling for another act

It's your same humorless theme

Back to back to back


There ain't no way in this world

Someone like you could be taught

You thinking you got it to teach

Oh I bet...

You thought

(Continued...)

Low life, no life

Bummin'

Buzzing around where you ain't wanted

You're nothin'

Bet you thought you was more

Check again 'cause you ain't

A loser, you is

Nowhere near a saint

Tell yourself you got it

Live in your delusion you liar

All fake ish

Eventually comes to fire

Fired off from your mouth

Straight to oblivion, unknown

As worthless as your mind... your thoughts and your poems
