By Candace Simmons
I've traveled
seen
smelled
tasted much
knowing nothing
pieces of me everywhere
even behind I love you
And you're beautiful
And will you marry me
never wed
or even seen a ring...
can't bury what's not dead
just pass it on
and hope that they treat me well
when they leave
and take me
Candace Simmons (also known as "Daki"), is a graduate of Bowie State University with a Bachelor's in social work. When she isn't writing poetry and prose, she works as an educator in D.C. public schools.
