Jasmine Moonrise Poems

had my body cut open and spent 2 months on bedrest

chronic pain ever since I can recall 

but the thing that hurt me the worst in life

was you 

said you’d never date a white girl because they’re annoying 

then caught you exchanging saliva with my so-called “friend” at the club

as white and karen as can be

you even let her karen me

she’s the devil and you know it inside

only the devil would do what she did to me

I wouldn’t wish it upon my worst enemy 

getting together behind my back

then you let her report me to HR just for being upset 

said I threatened her, what the hell? 

the heartbroken one ended up being scorned even deeper

I wasn’t allowed into work and had to quit on the spot 

one move by her, I lost everything I knew

a job, friends, coworkers, housing, health insurance, savings

did you ever think my feelings through? 

karmic justice isn’t just a saying 

the truth will always come to light 

every wrong will be made right

every person involved in this will pay 

cause you should never hurt someone you care about

in such a cruel and despicable way 

had to leave to get as far away from both of you as possible

had to move back in with my parents for a bit

started a whole new life brick-by-brick 

maybe it was a blessing in disguise

but you threw dirt on my name

and the trauma remains
