Lyrics of Love

By Blaque Diamond

Love is such a small word, but it has so much meaning. The heart is the centerpiece of every living creature, so we all have the ability to love, because love comes from the heart.

This collection of well-crafted poetry explores love in many different forms. From the ups and downs in relationships to delving deep into the importance of self-love. Some poems touch on how God's unconditional love for his children is immeasurable, and how the love of a mother for her child can't be duplicated.

Blaque Diamond explores love in all its dynamics in poetic proses and verses that allow the reader to envelop themselves in the emotions of love that leave footprints on the heart.

Blaque Diamond

Blaque Diamond, born Bianca Johnson in the fall of 1989, always had a love for reading. Instead of playing outside with the other children, she could always be found with her head buried in a book somewhere. She enjoyed the magical adventures her books took her on every time she turned the pages. When she was eleven years old, she was urged to pursue writing as a career choice by her fifth-grade teacher. Blaque Diamond always wrote poetry and children’s stories as a hobby, and also as a form of therapy. She did not have an easy-going childhood, so writing was her way of escaping her harsh reality. Her teacher took note of her ability to tell a story and encouraged her to explore and develop her skills more. To Blaque Diamond, writing was her only way to express what she felt inside without saying exactly what was on her mind. Writing poetic proses and creative stories allowed her to make her voice heard through her own words.As she grew older, Blaque Diamond began taking her teachers advice. She always involved herself in writing related activities in school, especially creative writing classes. She was always interested in learning about different forms of writing and the different styles. Her love for reading the written word, then became her love for writing. She loved the idea of creating her own stories. She took pride in the passion that poured through her words. Blaque Diamond took the first initiative to get her work published in January of 2017 when she submitted some of her poetry to be published in an anthology. Blaque Diamond submitted four poems, and three of them were chosen, hence her publishing journey first began. Since then, she has went on to publish several more publications as a self-published author with many more publications to come.When she’s not writing, Blaque Diamond enjoys traveling, cooking, spending time with friends, mixing up her next batch of homemade body butter, reading a good book, shopping, and anything else she has a mind to get into. Blaque Diamond categorizes her genre of writing as Contemporary African-American Fiction, which could fall under genres such as urban fiction, African-American romance, urban drama, or African-American fiction, and of course, poetry.

A Mother’s Love

This miracle growing inside of me,

Brings joyful tears to my eyes.

I never knew another love like this,

Until the day you came to be.

Your tiny kicks of life,

Reminds me every day that you are mine.

A creation only God could have a hand in,

Is you my son, my baby.

My heart filled with so much love,

It’s ready to burst on contact.

When I think of you my child,

I imagine all the things you will do,

And what you can be,

And what you will achieve.

Nothing has ever made me feel this way,

This ever-present inner happiness.

It’s all because of you my prince, my heart,

You bring out this side of me.

The day we meet my sweet boy,

Will be the first day of the rest of our lives.

So much we have to learn about one another,

And so much of life we have to experience.

Our bond will be unbreakable,

The hearts of mother and son.

I can’t wait to hold you in my arms,

Your sweet essence engulfing my senses.

There are so many plans I have for you,

The world is ours to explore.

These tears I cry are happy ones,

No need for me to feel sad.

I have you forever my love,

And that’s a reason to let the rivers flow.

This feeling I feel is all-consuming,

But I don’t mind it at all.

I never want to lose this joy,

Because you are the newest love of my life.

No matter what obstacles life may put in our way,

Nothing will get between my love for you.

You are now my highest priority,

The one who will
