my mind knew.

heart beat so loud, supplying
the room with the rhythm of
the mood.......slow soft hands
find their way up my thighs
....surprise! i've been waiting
for you...wet, dripping pouring
with juice. trembling legs part
to welcome you....hello, nice to
see you.....glad we could meet
(been dreaming of this man all
week in my sleep)........slowly
penetrating my core my being
my sweet smelling with something
po-si-tive-ly glowing breathing
deelpy in my ear as we align in
perfect symmetry....toes curled
fingers digging into this brotha's
back........lips gently nibbling my
neck....."ummmm, feel good babe?
does it really?" thrusts harder
to remind me....ringing phone
goes unanswered in his shirt jack
he's where he wants to be, better
believe that and i am too as this
moment fills me....temperature rising
so fast it's scary....i saw....i conquered
i came..to nirvana. i could lie with
this man for the rest of my life but
we have to part ways before the sunlight.
so it goes, out the candles he blew last
night i cheated on you but only
in my mind....

Be.

I am Poetry
‘picture it, you and I juxtaposed’
and the like, maybe you’ve heard of me?
i have the power to evoke joy in a ripple, sadness at the same time
i have within my belly an embryo of adjectives, a handful of rhymes
when i speak i send shudders down your spine, past your behind
and i can take your breath away with just one line…
i birth words in my vocabulary grapevine
I am......Poetically inclined.

Hello, it's me, Dance
i can bring you to your feet with an Oscar worthy performance
with a contemporary flavour, an injection of funk in my stance
contorting my body in ways to wrap around your imagination's glass
just one beat can change my mood from a high to low to mid teaser
with the passion of a latin lover, so catchy i give the cold a fever
but don't stretch out your hands if you can't catch me
I am a believer in Dance choreography.

My name is Music
but my middle name is Jazz
and i can seduce you with the melodic beats my sound has
i can set the mood for some "under the sheets" type menage
and i can create in the soul a psychedelic visage, i'm that kinda
addictive music, you wanna shoot up your arm and tempt the fate
of those who listen to it just one note can move you beyond cognition
with pizazz. i am Jazz, but some called me
Musically had.

who am i?

in the limelight....

sitting there,
wishing he'd just whisper
sweet somethings in my air
words that would carry enough wind
to rustle my hair
lips close enough
i could feel him breathe
i just wish he'd kiss me
miss me caress me
i need his energy
in my atmosphere.
but instead we
just sat there
listening to that guy
play the guitar...

a reminder to those who pine...

i am a prisoner of my past
confined by memories that cut the glass of my subconscious
this pain resides within the atoms of my being
and i can't describe the devastation that is this feeling
imagine falling and forever falling no ending
yet wishing you could just crash into something
anything....to break the monotony
so fearful of sleeping as images jump out at me
even with my eyes closed no sleep
awake in the maze of a vision i can't forget
sigh* i regret even bringing this up
but i sometimes wish i could close my eyes....

i feel like i've been
ringing the same old doorbell
with no answer

i feel like i've been
banging the same wall
forever

i feel like i don't
deserve anything at all
like i'm worthless

yet i long to give
mind heart and soul
to someone else

can anyone hear me?
can anybody understand what it feels like
to be stabbing your own heart with a knife
tiny jolts ring through my body and never let go
usually, on any ordinary day....i feel so low

i am, indeed, a prisoner of my past
a prisoner of a memory that resides in my subconscious
a captive in the heart of my soul's core
kidnapped and bound by threads i don't
even know how to let go or run from
as the pain overfloweth my cup
sometimes i wish i could just close my eyes....



(and never wake up)

final words and parting gifts

i'm saying good-bye to you...but not without leaving a few words...

good-bye to the sun shining on my blues

good-bye to those dark eyes that see me through

good-bye to the screaming voices in my head

good-bye to warm bodies lying in my bed

good-bye to iced tea chilled to perfection

good-bye to an almost invisible reflection

good-bye to lost love and growing old

good-bye to new mornings and sunset's gold....good-bye to colours

good-bye to mistrust and pent up anger

good-bye to gazing in the eyes of a stranger

good-bye to familiarity and quiet talks

good-bye to spontaneity and long walks

good-bye to smells, tastes, words and sounds

good-bye to just wanting you around.....we didn't need a reason....

good-bye to eyes filled with tears that don't move you

good-bye to insecurity and warm arms too

good-bye to loneliness in this crowded room

good-bye to dreams that never came true

good-bye to falling on deaf ears and seeing through blinded eyes

i'm waving good-bye to grieving skies....letting the sun shine through the clouds...

good-bye to the silence that is deafeningly loud

good-bye to tomorrows and forever afters

good-bye to the epiphany in your laughter

good-bye to all the bad vibes and negativity

good-bye to the bright ideas and creativity

good-bye to all the good times and the happiness

good-bye to the be-bopping of my heart in my chest....when i saw you...

good-bye to my lowly heart breaking into two

tonight, i'm saying good-bye....

good-bye to you...but not without leaving my final words...

i wish you all the best...

peace.

mind trip (prelude)

can i

fly with you?

inhale your air till i'm high off you

candles burning, soul music playing low

grab the spotlight with the eyes of a miracle

elevate your mood with a sunshiny attitude

bringing peace to a spirit with a lighter shade of blue

like the backdrop of the never-ending sky you

and i glide.

can i

flow with you?

feed you...with good lovin' from my plate

wipe your tears and light your creative -

mind with a fresh rhyme and rhythm of a beautiful hue

singing lullabies to capture the realm of you

so inspired i even wrote a song for you...it's called music

spreading love's seeds into your soft bosom

gently holding your heart at ransom.

can i

grow with you?

from a crawling babe hold your hand

mould and build a beautiful God Gifted Man

draw from you that energy to keep breaths breathing

lie next to you to keep dreams dreaming

whisper words that would make love's loving blush

i'm getting hot just thinking about your touch

and your psyche, so bright you might blind me.

can i

walk with you?

arms draped across my shoulder

feet lazily caressing the sands of our time

as love begins to flow from your veins into mine

pumped! pumping beats...heating the room

tattooing hearts of me onto you

can i draw for you?

tell you

how you have set me free?

so open now i love wearing my emotions on my sleeve

unashamed...no more disguising my heart in costume

as my melody steadily dances across the room

to where you are, you are my guiding star, my food for life

my light and my favourite being

can i

become

the woman you're seeing?
