To You From Me

I sit here and reminisce of all the tears I’ve made shed
My depression so deep I wish I could just drop dead
Baby I never meant to hurt you, that is not what I intended to do
So now I sit in this lonely somber room crying for you
Wish I could hold you in my arms because my apology is not enough
Wish I could pave this road smooth because it might be rough
I wish that I could take back the things that I have done
Love you with all my might until we become one
I wish I could give you everything you need, but baby what can I give?
I give my sincere love; my mistakes I hope you can forgive
I know what I did was betrayal, I know you hurt deep within
The regret flows deep in my veins and crawls deep within my skin
I try to break free from this beast that is trying to destroy who I truly am
I sit here breathless, don’t know what else to say but damn
I messed up; I dug myself deeper into a hole
But my love for you will not allow me to let you go
There have been difficult times, but who said love was light
I hold you and this love with all my might
When you fall I will pick you up and hold you up high
When you cry I will be there to wipe the tears from your eyes
I was thoughtless, baby please forgive me
Do not lock your heart; I want to possess the key
I know this will move you a few steps back
But understanding is what I lack

I want to understand you; I don’t want to hurt you
I promise to be more aware of the things I do
With every unspoken word, I grow weak
So baby I understand if you do not want to speak
Just know that I love you
Let the morning’s light greet you with grace
Let the rays warm your beautiful face
Let the clouds anoint you and console
Let Mother Nature reach deep into your soul
Let the green show you its pigment of glee
And hold this poem close to your body, as if it were me
Let each word be pronounced in depth
Let each rhyme take away your breath
Hold each syllable in the tip of your mouth
Devour it all don’t permit even a drop to pour out
Let the temple gently kiss your mind
Make love to every poetic line
Don’t feast on only one, but more and more
As they passionately settle in the depths of your core

My Faith lies in you Lord

Stuck in a box, looking through the glass
Future looks blurry, I gaze at the past
It’s easy to go back because I don’t know what the future holds
But Lord, give me strength so that I may be bold
Grab my hand and lead me down your path
Comfort me with your love; don’t crush me with your wrath

I Wanna...

I wanna dive deep into your body and swim through your splendor
I wanna swim in your profound thoughts even the ones that are tender
I wanna walk up and down your body and uncover treasures
I wanna love you without measures
I wanna stroll up your legs past your knees
Give you my love so good and the pain appease
I wanna know you from the inside out
Fulfill those deep desires that shout
I wanna hold you so tight until we become one
And when I start I won’t be done
Cuz with you, life goes on and on there is no stop
I put you on my shoulders and we’ll rise to the top
I wanna walk past your knees and rest on your belly
Baby I can do all this if you just let me
I wanna caress every beauty mark
Kiss you and capture every spark
I wanna make my way up to your chest
Stare at your face because I’m so impressed
I wanna climb up your chin and taste your lips
That takes me on a trip
I exceed heaven and fall into your eyes
Gripping on your thighs
While you caress my back
Your kisses are my deserts; my snacks
And I’m so glad you took me back
I was empty without you
Baby I was a fool
My nights felt lonelier and forsaken
I thought leaving was what I had to do but I was mistaken
I drowned in misery and in dread
Drowned myself in my tears in my bed
Love music choked me and without you I could not breathe
I was such a fool for thinking I would do best if I leave
My hands were depressed
I could not find rest
My heart could not beat
Cuz without you I’m incomplete
I could not live without your love; without your romance
Thank you for giving me another chance
I grab your hand, stand on the stars and ask for this dance
Bring your body close to mine
I’m ready to make you feel real fine
Just close your eyes and let me do what I do best
Lay down and rest
Cuz you’re about to be undressed
I’ll uncover your beauty just say yes
Close your eyes and let me take control
I’ll go easy baby I’ll go slow
I’ll make your body feel real nice
Cuz this love we share has no price
This love cannot be bought
And our desires will be sought
Fulfilled and satisfied
Just lay back and enjoy this ride
Let me touch you all over; I don’t wanna miss a spot
Baby my desire is not just a small feeling; it’s a lot
Let me kiss every inch of your body and make you moan
Let me reside in you and make a home
No need to fear cuz I won’t do you wrong
But I gotta take my time and make this night long
I wanna make you feel your best
Lay kisses all over your chest
Breathe in your breath
Put those insecurities to death
I wanna take my time and reach ecstasy
I’ll give up anything for you to be next to me

Untitled Poem

I lick my lips; I taste your sweet lips
The taste that takes me on a trip
The saccharine taste that sinks deep into my tongue
Your breath that respires ecstasy into my lungs
The softness of your lips like an aphrodisiac
That keeps me coming back
Your juiciness has me addicted like a fanatic
The flavor of your tongue makes me ecstatic
My lips can’t seem to survive without your taste
Or looking at your gorgeous face
My hands have been withdrawn and left to weep
The pain has resided awfully deep
I lie in bed and try to imagine you there
Holding me as I run my fingers through your hair
My lips tasting your skin
As we both sink deep within
Sinking into each other and becoming one whole
Holding you so tightly to never let you go
I try to imagine us being the way we were
Even if I tried to forget you, these feelings start to stir
A commotion builds up and a storm is created
My mistake of letting you go makes me so frustrated
You have a heart to protect because I might fall off track
There’s nothing I can do because you won’t take me back

He Found Me



I did not find Poetry
He found my hands
I did not ask to be his woman
He asked to be my man

I blessed him with verses
He blessed me with rhymes
I controlled the temple
He gave me more lines

I divided them into stanzas
He donated terms
A page was impregnated
By his poetic sperm

Birthing poems
And I to deliver
He was the voice
That made the readers quiver

He gave me my ring
For a life time to bind
He sat at my fingertips
He sat in my mind
I did not find poetry
He found me
I did not ask to be saved
He set me free

He grasped my hand
Clutching to forever control
Interlaced in love
That will forever grow

Poetry found my hands
And I his depth
He snatched my heart
And stole my breath
