Love is universal and it knows no boundaries and communities. In this era, love is even being made more universal by celebrations like Valentine’s Day. At this onset, every community, be it minor or major, is also participating in disseminating these celebrations. After all, the divine feeling of love is above racial bondages that man has created. Love can happen to anyone with anyone. People around the world celebrate their love through different means and expressing it through Love Poems is one of the most endearing ways. Every community has got its unique collection of Love Poems and Black Ghetto Love Poems are no exception.
By Beto
For the days you drove me to school in your blue
Chevy work truck
Built like a mexican tank
wooden beams
Hammers and bricks
Neat mounds
Stacked up like the heavenly
mount Olympus of obreros
Pulling up to school driveways
Roaring engine of your trocka
Rattling warm like clothes in the dryer
Among sanctioned family four door vehicles
From you papa
Built like a mexican tank
I get the strength
To be a poet.
By Osmond L. Oliver Jr.
Love so deep you will never understand
To bad things didn't go as they were planned
I lay at night and think of my life
Wishing I had the chance to make you my wife
You came in and took control
Not only did I fall in love with you, I fell in love with your soul
Loving me daily without any questions
I told you before, girl you're truly a blessin
You understood all of my ways
You brought joy to all of my days
When I think of what a Black Woman should be
Please believe you're the first face my mind can see
Unbelievable, the love that you gave
Joined as one riding our love like a wave
Even if you were paralyzed from your feet to your head
I'd carry you every day from the car to your bed
Knew it was special right from the start
Love so deep I'd write my vows to your heart.
