Confessions...

Exhalation...

Exhalation

I exhaled today
Exhaling all the hurts, disappointments and dirty deeds of all my yesteryears
I exhaled all the phony friends, fake comrades and senseless associates
Who never sincerely gave a fuck one way or the other
Who never truly wanted to see a smile spread across my face
Who are actually so miserable in their own life that they are wanting, willing and ready to knock another down
And I exhaled again
Exhaling all of the failures, missed opportunities and self-doubt
I exhaled all of the what-ifs that the mind constantly battled over
All of the misguided interpretations of others' definition of happiness
All of the "to be" lists that materialize to satisfy others' perception of perfection
And I exhaled again
Exhaling all of the cataclysmic catastrophes that once engulfed my mental and emotional
All of the foreseeable bullets that should have been dodged to protect my physical
All of the metaphysical conundrums that discombobulated my spiritual
And I exhaled again
Preparing for my inhalation

High On You...

High On You

You got me on a natural high
That makes me feel like I can fly
You got me feeling free as a bird
Able to truly be me
And be accepted completely
You have made my smile contagious
I can't stop smiling
Just the simple thought of you
Brings a smile to my face
A smile so huge that can light the night sky
I am falling in love with you... Mentally
Mentally connected to you
As though I already knew you
You digging me and I'm digging you digging me digging you

...I Feel You...

… I Feel You …

your stares upon my body

running wildly from

head

to

toe

your scent places me under a spell

again,

I’m intoxicated

by

you

the warmth of your mouth

causes

a volcanic eruption within

me

your touch sends

an erotic shiver

up my spine

Don’t

Stop!

I

Want

More!

at my pleading

you

thrust

your all

inside

of

me

showing

no mercy

but giving me

Pure

            Subliminal

                                    Ecstasy!

Untitled 16

throbbing...

aching…

wanting…

to feel the warmth of your mouth

kissing me ever-so softly

just the way i like

thoughts of the last time

fantasies of the next

have taken over my mind

there’s that heartbeat

getting stronger and stronger

with every agonizing breath

my wetness is overflowing

wanting to quench your thirst

the waiting is driving me

          insane

          impatient

to the point of oblivion

i need you now…

i want you now…

One Sista to Another

One Sista to Another

You go around frowning up and rolling your eyes

Why?

You don’t even know me!

Am I a threat to you?

I’m not even your competition.

Getting your man in bed is not my mission.

You don’t know me at all,

Not even my name,

But yet you straight hate on me,

That is a shame.

I’ve never done you anything to you…

So why do you dislike me so?

Is it my complexion, my hair, my eyes…

Or is it the way I walk, talk, or smile?

Instead of you giving me my props,

You are trying to keep me down.

We’re suppose to be sistas,

Not related by blood,

But related by culture.

I don’t need my own keeping me down.

It’s a cruel enough world as it is.

If we don’t have each other’s back…

Then who will?

Like An Ocean

Like an Ocean

I want my love to flow naturally…endlessly…

always overflowing…

Knowing no boundaries…limits

Flowing ever so freely…never-ending…only running over

Careening over…through…obstacles

Never to be outdone…

Always uplifting…wanting…giving…

Receiving…never being too much

Never hurting…drying out…being convenient

Always caring…fulfilling…unconditional

Unworrying…reciprocating…rejuvenating
