The softness of your ebony skin
Must come from the angel that you have within.
The beauty of your radiant face
Would make any man's heatbeat skip out of pace.
The laughter that is contained in your soul
Would make a shell of a man once again feel he's whole.
The sparkle of life that resides in your eyes
Is like the twinkle of stars on a black velvet sky.
I find you attractive and I cannot deny
That I get butterflies every time that you walk by.
Come sit beside me, let's talk for a while.
You'll keep me enchanted every time that you smile!
To the residents of Detroit,
I will be concise. Some of you may have wanted the Mayor to resign and he has stated that he wont! For those of you who did not get your wish, I just have one thing to say..... REMEMBER THIS AND EVERYTHING ELSE HE HAS DONE DURING THE NEXT MAYORAL RACE!
To the person who runs against Kwame next election,
pound this episode and every other scandal he has been involved with on home. Do not let this escape the consciousness of the people. He will have to answer to the people come election time. Okay, I have stated my peace. Have a nice day!
In the quiet of Winter
Among blanketed Earth
I do roam
O'er the snow frosted hills
To the village
In the late midnight hour
To meet with my sweet love
Under cold and starry skies.
Cuddled close together
We walk through town
And conversate late into the night
Over hot coa coa
Looking into store front windows
And dreaming of a future together.
I walk her home
Among this powdered landscape of white
Steal a kiss and leave,
A Shadow in the Night!
This is another one of my poems. Doesn't rhyme, but poetry really doesn't have to. What I was trying to capture in this poem was A Norman Rockwell esque type of love in a Norman Rockwell type of town. Hope you enjoyed it! Thanks for reading. Adieu.
I saw you in the distance.
I want to know your name
Cause you really piqued my interest
And I hope you feel the same.
The way you looked so lonely
Made me want to find out more.
It's not because I'm horny
And I'm just looking to score.
Please give me a moment
Cause I have a greater purpose
I want to know if what's inside
Matches what is on the surface.
So come with me, we'll just talk
I want to get to know you.
Let's go take a little walk
There's a place I want to show you
Where we can sit and watch the sun set
To all the colors of the palette.
Peaches, oranges, reds and pinks
While we watch the sun sink
You can tell me the things you think.
You will not have to worry
About me trying to touch you.
I'm not in a hurry,
I'm not trying to rush you.
I want to know your essence
I want to learn your mind
I just want you in my presence
To find if you are truly Divine
Someone whom I could call mine
Until the end of time.
I do not want this love
To be about some sex
I want something that's more
About a mutual respect.
I don't want a relationship
That's based only on lust.
I want something that's based
In honesty and trust.
So open up your lonely heart
And let it all spill out
Cause I think it'd be a real nice start
To find what you're about.
What have other men done
To hurt you in the past?
I promise you'll be my only one
and that I learn quite fast.
You will find I'm not a phony one
I want this love to last.
I'll share with you
The sentimental side of me
That resides and hides
Deep down inside of me.
The side that I show to nobody else
Except to the better half of myself.
I'll always keep alive
this flame that's called romance
If only you would give
This longing heart a chance
For our two souls to slow dance
To the rhythm of love
A union that was planned
By the God that's above.
Vivid mental landscapes still give me no rest
And my fantasy lives within my breast.
I breathe her through my mouth and chest.
She' s the woman to whom I freely confess.
The woman I want to undress and de-stress
From the daily mess that tends to get her upset.
I want to be the one who makes her wet.
I want to make her forget her deepest regrets.
I want to treat her with the utmost respect
And rub her shoulders and neck
When her body's a wreck.
I want to feel her warm breath upon my skin.
I want to protect her from death and the hurt felt within.
I want to be the one to take away all of her pain.
I want to make love to her while we stand out in the rain.
I want to take her on a long train ride through Spain
While I take my time with her body and drive her insane
And as the night turns to day, the Spanish guitar plays
While we lay and we say that we will always stay a team
But it's all just a dream.
Just a fools scheme.
As elusive as a pocket of golden moon beams.
I think about my fantasy all of the time.
I find myself asking "What if she were mine?"
She's so goddamn fine
With a body designed like a Goddess Divine
And a beautiful mind
Could we be two of a kind?
If ever you think so just show me a sign
Or drop me a line.
You never know what our two hearts might find.
I'm just stating things that I have pondered
My private thoughts when my mind starts to wander.
Lady so sweet, I'll make you something to eat.
When you come home from a hard day
I'll be there to greet, to pull out your seat
And rub your sore feet until you're falling asleep.
The one who would then carry you up the stairs.
The one who would show you that he truly cares.
The one who would always lend you his ear.
The one to alleviate all of your fears.
The one who would wipe away all of your tears.
The one you grow old with the rest of your years.
