“Unzipped”

“This here ain’t no romance; it’s an urban erotic tale, pay back is a b--, and Pearl’s determined not to fail.”
Those are the first words of “Unzipped,” the newest urban drama by Noire (Published by One World Trade Paperback 2010), and from that first line, the story draws you in with promises of revenge, money, drugs and sex.

Love and Pain

my heart lay shattered, scattered on the floor.
one wrong step, and it hurts even more.
I gave you my heart, and you led it astray
what did I do… to be left this way?
and so now I sit here, alone and afraid . . .
sobbing with tears, over the love you’ve betrayed!

time has passed, and I’ve grown stronger,
a fool to your ways, I am no longer!
I will not beckon, I will not fall...
never again will I succumb to your call.

I do not hate you, and I hold no grudge.
