Race

Uncategorized 1 Minute

Do you ever feel like you’re in a never ending race ?

Running fast but you’re stagnant even when you change the pace

& you won’t dare give up cause you see your mamas face

oh how dare you give up or come in second place

You been running all your life, all these dreams you need to chase

Can’t even catch your breath because your future is what’s at stake,

Do you ever feel like you’re in a never ending race?

Late nights you stay up, black circles on your face

& the fam calls but you can’t tell em that your life is a disgrace

That you really wish you could drop out and simply leave this place

That you don’t see the point, but you won’t rest your case

You’ll burn your stress in that spliff you’re smoking to the face

& put on that nice smile so your misery they can’t retrace

Do you ever feel like you’re in a never ending race ?

– It ain’t easy, is it ?

Hey i’m Rachelle Garcia! Almost sure that if you got to this page you somewhat know me but i’ll tell you guys a little about myself anyways. I am 19 years old and i’m from the Bronx, Dominicana! I am currently attending the University at Albany. This blog is long overdue but a recent occurence in my life pushed me to actually do it, writing has always been the way in which I believe I best express myself and it always seems like a release when things in my life are a little too much to handle. I have been writing poems for years but yet I never had the courage to share them so please bare with me. I don’t have a set description to this blog yet but I am leaning towards life experiences and heartbreaks through poetry at most. I want this page to be your sanity when the world feels a little too heavy to handle. I thank my friends for the support and the encouragement, and I thank you guys for visiting as well. Hope you enjoy!
