Poems from brooklyn6timesplus

This is my description of myself and my poetry. My name is Brooklyn Six aka The Brooklyn Six Project. I was born on Monday, August 26th 1974 in New York City. I graduated from DeWitt Clinton High School in June 1992. I served in the United States Navy for nine years. While in the Navy I have lived in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Portland Or, and Seattle. I currently live in Lynnwood, Washington about twenty miles north of downtown Seattle. Poetry is my written medication whenever I feel stressed about something. All of my poems are about life, love, happiness, sadness, triumph, and tragedy. Hopefully, i will be able to captivate others with my poetry. Take care everyone.
It has been seventeen years
Since that dreadful morning
Thousands lost their lives unexpectedly
Hearts are still grieving
The events that...
Sometimes we search for answers
That we can not find
So cryptic and puzzling
And justifiably unkind
Pain and darkness rears its ugly head...
Be there for her
Hold her in your arms
Always guide and protect her
Give her those loving charms
Be the one who stays dedicated
Carry out...
Always forge ahead
Do not fall behind
Take your schoolwork seriously
Be diligent and kind
It is really up to you
To be a success
Learn as...
Stormy clouds may appear
But, they do not have to hinder you
Rise above those dangers
And fight your way through
No one said that things...
