Carvens Lissaint "Beauty Part 3"(Inspired By Mega)

[@authenticteecee]

I used to and still love this so much

[@HopefulHustle91]

This peace never gets old I miss the old strivers row collective. Those poems got me threw college and then some. This peace will forever be timeless

[@goldenlyfe23]

I almost dropped my phone. The vulnerability of a man is so powerful and strengthening and beautiful...this was amazing.

[@AKMproductions13]

I listen to this everytime I'm feeling depressed. It reminds me that things will get better & that I'm not alone with my problems. Thank you Carvens, I needed this. You and Jasmine are actually the ones that inspired me to get serious with my writing. God Bless.

[@drtash21]

THAT was probably one of the most emotional poems I've ever heard. Incredible. He really wrote that from deep within. I'm amazed. I wish more men performed more raw deep poems like this. I have profound respect for any man that's not afraid of his emotions. BRAVO.

[@LAdyLAq]

I finally found it! I've been looking for this piece since being at the show that night. Wow. Still gives me chills.

[@preppygurl428]

This is possibly one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen...

[@mzsaforo]

Takes me back to elementary school days and even high school. Brings tears to my eyes. Thankful to God that I've overcome those days.

[@ThatGirlWithAVoice]

This poem touched my soul. Thank you Carvens so baring your soul to us like this. I've truly been inspired in so many ways.

[@mathewsnyirongo397]

Wow!! Just Wow Carvens...I'm still watching your poems and they still touch me like they did 8 years ago. You're a true gift to the world, and "you are beautiful!"; I say that to myself everyday. You really changed my life.

[@ambishay1]

[@thandojay]

I related to it so much. thank you for sharing this. this poem inspired me to write the most honest poem I've ever written in my life. its people like you that inspire, encourage and influence people like me... people that can take the ugliness of the past and turn it into something beautiful. again, thank you so much Carvens!

[@myotherjob]

Thank you for getting 'the fuck back up' and giving us something so incredible.

[@fufuNubianQueen12]

I've seen this so many times, and Each time, I get goosebumps and tears flow... Now that's what u call hardfelt poetry. I pray that his future wife will be a blessing to him and a source of healing. :)

[@MrJsmallz32]

Man if this doesnt strike some kind of emotion in you then you cant be human.. Just seeing him cry as he perform this defines his humility and how emotionally intact he is with his writing

[@mrocksjesus]

This poem is my story...word for word..sound for sound..heart for heart.

[@furahanahaki3730]

[@WhenTheNincadasCry]

My science teacher suggested this group of poets to me when she found out I liked spoken word. Now I've found this poem, and I'm in tears. I can't believe her suggestion was so on the mark.

[@poetsfinest]

I sat in front of the computer screen speechless .... One of the most beautifully written poems I heard

[@DestinyDope]

This brought me to tears! I can relate to a lot of what he said. I turn twenty tomorrow and the first thing Im going to tell myself in the mirror when I wake up is "You are Beautiful" Carvens you are beautiful, sexy, intelligent and all the above, thank you for sharing this poem I pray God can bless me with a man in my life that resembles you in some way :)
