Can I Have

My Cake

And Eat It

Too…

-

What if I just want to eat, without you…

-Happiness isn’t always about 2, maybe it’s -me first then you.

By Katie Rosario on Unsplash

-Your steady waisting

My time…

Making a mockery of the past…

🚫

Without you

There would be,

-No one to lie…

-No one to cry about…

I will exist,

Habitation Alive!

-

Not Hiding Myself,

So You Can’t

See How Big,

I Really Am…

No Tea 🫖🚫

No Shade🚫

Can I Have My Cake

And Eat It Too…

By Tamara Gak on Unsplash

I'm Ready To Take Up Some Room!

Freedom does not happen when Stress is Involved…

I'll Eat My Cake Just How I Like It…

I’m Talking About

Big Slices

For Myself

And I Ain’t Even

Leaving Crumbs… 🍰

A simple taste of bitterness can ruin a sweet treat-

So Can I Have

My Cake and

Eat it Too?

-Because That’s Exactly What I Desire To Do-

🎂One Day I Will Touch The Sky!

    Yummy poem! I love the imagery and diction there. As a sweet tooth myself, this relates to me very much!

  • Mark Graham2 years ago

    I to like the images that you chose to explain the words.

  • Rasma Raisters2 years ago

    Loved this with great imagery of a chocolate cake in front of me, Just remember to have something beneath you to fall on when you finally touch the sky. You'll want to keep on being famous so there will be no time to fall.

    Heck, have your cake and eat it too, just have lots of cake. Such a freeing poem. Now I want cake. So wonderful.

  • Cake is good as is your poetry

    This is very deep and spot-on Lonzo. There are many times in our life's where we need to take care of our own heart first no matter how much it hurts.

  • Lamar Wiggins2 years ago

    Nice! I loved the line “A simple taste of bitterness can ruin a sweet treat.” So true in many ways. This is great! 💖😍

    A stunning piece Louii - we should all get to touch the sky! oh yeah and mmmmm cake!

  • 🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂💋

  • What a great poem about shaking a bad partner and focusing on your own needs for a change. It’s such a stupid phrase, you can’t have your cake and eat it too…what’s the point of that? Thanks for sharing this with us!

    Well done, Lonzo. (Hey, what is the point of cake if we cannot eat it, anyway?!) I love your clever banter and wordplay. Very creative!

  • Rasma Raisters2 years ago

    An awesome write and to quote an old song just don't leave that cake out in the rain because you'll never have that recipe again.

  • Love this

  • Moe Radosevich2 years ago
