Telling that story reminds me of this quote, "Don't break a writer's heart and think ink won't spill..."

[@RDH1986]

❤️

[@RomeoBarnes]

As a writer myself I can confirm this. You WILL be written about its just up to you if its good or bad.

[@loladior1]

So I watched "This Woman" then came back to watch this. I love her

[@yolandajerome9561]

I'm doing it in reverse. I heard she made a sequel so I had to come here and listen to this one first before I could check out This Woman.

[@kyramckenzie7556]

Same

[@AnActualGem]

Still listening and saying it word for word in 2024

[@MsOhSoFancyMUAGirl]

nothing is like the original.... i love the brave new voices version

[@ILuvJDior]

well obviously there was more emotion when she performed it wayyyy back then

[@MsOhSoFancyMUAGirl]

That is why it was so moving. She performed it from the heart.

[@amandamandy7849]

Yes she had more emotion But still I love

[@PreshyM]

i love alysia with all my heart, now the poem that girl does it for me but not as much as the happy couple or the death poem.. love her to the moon and back

[@Domistarr]

Every time I hear this poem I shed tears because I can relate so much. Being "That girl" hurts to no return. The feelings of hating the one that makes you "that girl" can be heavy on your heart, but you seem to always forgive them.

[@coreymitchell432]

you came to my school and i read my poem to you and you said " that was amazing " ... like those words replay in my head every 30secs. love you xooxoxoxooxoxoox

[@amandamandy7849]

Corey Mitchell ohw my god that is so cool I wish she would come to my school💞💞 I love her

[@jo-annzekoe8240]

Still listening to it in 2018. Nd ive been listening to it since 2009. U deep girl

[@nonkululekolekota1804]

This is the first poem I heard by Alysia when I was 27, that was 10 years ago now. I remember the events described in this poem. I am also a poet. I learned a life lesson from this poem and I kept it with me. Thank you for these beautiful account of some events which can play out between young woman and young men.

[@teresaanya]

Watching her poem "This Women" and then watching the Brave New Voices video and then this video... Is pretty fucking powerful. Like Damn she really grew and is now glowing.

[@frechescathwala800]

" I just don't understand why its not ok for you to love me"😓

[@bwilkerson813]

This is a great example of why I love spoken word.

[@victorialee2626]

Oh Gosh I am shaking. "No one knows you hold my hand." I don't want to be That Girl. This is amazing.

[@popstarcutie2011]

The first time she did it I REALLY felt that emotion.

[@katokebofhe738]

[@Batlady31]

If you like this poem you have to see it on the HBO show she is talking about. her being so emotional made it so much more powerful.
