BIOGRAPHY

A MOTHERLESS CHILD

I feel like a motherless child

She’s been gone for quit awhile

That’s the last time you saw me smile

I walk alone going the extra mile

Where’s the love that used to pile

I see that it’s gone out of style

She always been carefree and wild

Treated me like a reptile

Always bitter and hostile

Always being in denial

We will never be able to reconcile

When you have a mother living the life of a juvenile

Shattered pieces from a broken heart

that’s so fragile

No one comes between her crack vial

Whatever happened to a mother’s love for her child ?

I will never know because, the judge ruled mistrial

By: Beverly R. Carr

ALL OF ME

I gave u all of me and got nothing in return

Not playing with fire, and still got burned

As the years go by; I wonder will I ever learn

My first, second, and third love that I had all turned out bad

Having bad judgment in men

Relationships that make my head spin

Letting them get beneath my skin

again, again, and again

When will it ever end ?

I should’ve listen, when Tina Turner has spoken

Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken

By: Beverly R. Carr

BORN TO SURVIVE

Born to survive and willing to sell

my soul to stay alive

The way homeless people are living

brings tears to my eyes

No where to go

No place to sleep

Eating out of garbage cans

and living on the streets

Begging for money to buy some food

Some people don’t understand they’re

so damn rude

Some wear extra clothing

while, others are practically nude

I give them some spare change, to

show my gratitude

Nobody chooses to homeless

Living in the streets are very dangerous

It can happen to me or you

Not all dreams come true
