Afro Boy: happy father day 2 the real mutha fukin fathers

THE CENTER OF ME
I have walked alone
For far too long My journey…
Experienced…
Lonely moments…
Empty Roads…
Dusty seats…
Isolated highways…
The yearning inside me
Shouts
Screams
Hollers
For someone
To fill
This Spirit
This Heart
These Arms
Thighs
Core
Center
Did not allow
Door to open
Did not allow
Trust to hold me
Did not allow
Discernment to be manifested
Words mere whispers
Pressed to ear
Tongue wet
Stroking
Caressing
Tantalizing
Teasing
The center of my being
The Niagara Falls to my hunger
The Well to my desire
Creation of
Emotions sprouted
Creation of fire
Softly kissing limbs Inhabited desolate place
Hope watered
Love sprung From nature’s core
Fertilized by empathy for others
God’s everlasting hand
Humbleness
Love for family
Love for self
Tender words spoken
The appreciation of the Reina
The worth of her spirit
Respect given freely
HIS arms cradling me
Keeping my soul warm
My spirit cozy
Like an old worn quilt
Or old sweatpants
Surrounding every part
Of my being
Safely placing me In HIS arms
Defining that HE is….
The one I’ve been searching
The someone without a face
For HE is the one who I place
My Trust
My Heart
My Spirit & Mind
My Body & Soul
HE is the one I confess
Who places ME
Ever so gently In the path of US
Placing ME In the utter Amazement
In the Spiritual Presence
In the Loving Arms OF HIM

REUNITED LOVE
Coming Home
Looking back
Moments shared
A look
A smile
A conversation
Roaring laughter
Coffee
Dinner
Tender moments
Shared by two
Life
Intercedes
Stood before fork on road
Walk
Separate paths
Live
Separate lives
Kiss
Different lips
Embrace
Another
Birth
Children
Look
At different eyes
Smell
Different scent
And yet…
Never forgotten
Always
Wondering
Always
Thinking
Praying
Wishing
One day
Technology
Intercedes
Is it possible
Can I find
The one that was lost
Type
Name
Eyes searching
For
Familiar face
Familiar lips
Familiar eyes
Wait…..
Is it him
Heart pounding
Palms sweating
Yes
Reach out
Words carefully written
Seconds
Minutes
Hours
Days
A response
“Hello… long time”
A rendezvous
There he is
Arms open
Bodies press
Familiar
Scent
Sabor
Familiar
Warmth
Fuego ardiente
Familiar eyes
Familiar lips
The recognition
Of wonder
Of blessings
Of love never lost
Friendship rekindled
Suspiro
Aliento
The feeling
Of completeness
The reality
Settles in
I’ve come home

Thought we were going to your place
Candlelight dinner

Just what you ordered
Just what you like
The sexiness
The boldness
The Latina intensity

The aroma
The delectable morsels
Of soft flesh
Sweet juices
Flowing from
You and I
Double deuces
Bring the loving
Make sure
It’s
Passionate
Laced with love

Heat that burns
From inside the core

Breathless
Gasping for air
Need to expel
Demons
That reside
You know where

Bodies possessed
By
Lust
Hunger
Appetite
Famished

THE TASTING OF THE WINE

Loving your lips
Touching mine
Sweetness
Softness
Fire
Urgency
Hearts together
Billows higher intertwined
Bodies
Heat
Sweat
Urgency
Yours
Mine
Love you more & more
All the time
As we sip
On each other’s lips
On one another’s essence
Like the best finely aged wine
Sip slowly amor
Need time
Moments of necessity
Savor…
Lentamente
Each & every drop
For aged wine
Needs to be savored slowly
Not gulped
Breathe it
Take it in
Whoosh it around the tongue
Close your eyes
Bring forth the essence
From within
Hmm yes…
Just like that
An expert that will outshine
The ones that feel
They got it like that
Don’t have a clue
And only whine
Not of the gulping kind
Enjoy every drop
Allow the essence
To take over your spot
The fermented aromas
That fills your senses
Making your head spin
Giving you a certain erotic trip
Losing balance
Contain yourself
For the ingesting
Of this rare wine
Will have you….
Touching yourself….

Can I watch
Or would that be too much
As soon as you’re done
YO
You needs…
To tear this ass up

Animal Instinct

Watching your stride

Your swagger

Walking across the room

Moving...

Tun Tun

Is it me...

Or do I hear Tribal Drums

I must be tripping again

Let me get back to the culprit at hand

Tun Tun

African Drums

Beating

Capturing

Waiting

Closing my eyes

Body moving to the rhythm

Ya'll hear that

Tun Tun

Enveloped

Captured

Swaying back & forth

Forth & back

Eyes enticing

No longer Blinking

Can't move

Hmm he looks sooooo good

Pulsating

Tun Tun

Wetness

Dripping

Tun Tun

Towers opening

Locking

Need to keep it together

Sweat on brow

Sweat running between

melons of soul

What is he doing

Am I losing my ability to breathe

Oxygen needed

Room closing in

Is it just me

Craving the brotha before me

Animalistic desires from within

Need to walk away

DAMN! Craving too strong

Like vultures to rotting meat

Pulsating

Tun Tun

Its that drum again

Calling me...

Tribal inclinations

Pouring out of me

A Warrior spirit

Waning to conquer my prey

Hunger taking over

Salivating

Hand through hair

Hand across brow

Cracking of knuckles

Neck (Crack) first right then left

Lips liced

Muscles locked

Arching back

Ready to pounce

Will strong

Able to do it

Window of Opportunity

I'm on it

Going for it

Yeah! Nowhere to go

Incapacitated

Tun Tun

Drums again

Beat... Hypnotic

Blink, Blink...

Back to reality

Animal planet

is soooooooo overrated.

CARNAL KIND

In my bedroom
Thinking of you
Wondering
Contemplating
Reminiscing
Of times
Shared
Loved
Cared
Wondering
What you’re up to

Why do these thoughts
Ponder
Like a hammer to a nail
Pounding the head
Of questions unanswered
Of answers unsaid
Of emotions never touched
Of what could’ve been

Your laugher
A melodic tune
That captures the spirit
A place
Pure peace
Elation
Contemplation
Your pain
Your journey
Your words unsaid
Do you think of me
As I do you
Do you crave
Our bodies entwined
Like vines to a tree
Like roots 10 feet deep
Like One not Two
Moments shared by YO y TU

Wrapped arms
Legs
Around hips
Closer
Deeper
Stronger
Strokes
Inhale
Breathe
Taste lips
Essence
Of you

Here I go again….
Damn why do I trip my head
Mind working
Creating colors
Images
Provoking
Pulling
Stroking

Body on fire
Once again
Need release
Carnal fire
Burning deep
Within me
Lubricates my being
Hmmm
Passion
Desire
Fire

Need water
To Quench this thirst
So parched
So dehydrated
Need your essence
Need to be filled
With nourishment
Of the carnal kind

GO BACK...

Go back...to a time when all was simple

the only worry were the tests of the day

the clothes to wear to school

basketball practice

Go back...

when happiness was true

Friday nights

Movies

Chillin with your girls

Walking by the pier

Go back...

to moments of splendor

of ripe juicy candy apples

melting with each morsel you partook

dripping down the side of your mouth

Hmmmmmm

Go back...

The walk to the bodega

to pick up your limbe de coco

Masarepa

Coco Rico Soda

Go back...

To the pasteles en oja

Arroz con gandules

Pudin de Pan

Flan

Coquito

when there was money

a feast of great proportions

prepared by our mom

Go back...

when music was meaningful

Bomba

Plena

Merengue

Salsa (real salsa)

R&B the oldies but goodies

melodies were contagious

full of meaning & love

Go back...

to walks in the park

watching children play

holding hands with the One

innocence

curiosity

wonder

delight

Go back...

to a time that was simple

no drama

no worries

no sleepless nights

One...

Two....

Three....

A few steps more...

Do you see

Do you remember

Reminisce In the Splendor

Of what was pure paradise...

DESTINY

Spirit realm, who is there

Ancestors watching over me

In chaos

Despair

Guiding the journey of my life

Standing beside me

Energies fill me

My destiny before me

Powerful energies surrounding me

A path calls out to me

They reach out

Talking

Sharing

Guiding

Energies

All around me

Occupying the space

Right beside me

Walking toward this calling

Meditate on teachings of my childhood

Truth in words

History of the greatest book ever written

Words untold

Experiences taken

Tears rolling

Laughter rocking

Growing up in the hood

I stop

Question again

Who am I

Who will I be

Where shall I walk

Who shall I love

What is my destiny

Pre-written

No coincidences

Just Real Talk

Real Words

Real Love

Real Guidance

RABID HUNGER
Can’t breathe!
Trying to compose myself!
This yearning is burning out of control!
Mental visions of our bodies ever so close.
Feel heat coming from my very core.
Need emergency attention
For this sensation
That is taking me
To the breaking point

Primitive yearnings of you and I
Dancing, moving, flowing to the same erotic tune
Hips, thighs, hands, arms
Encased in sweat and charm
All part of this tortured mess
Mess within me
Need to make this heat subside
How do I restrain from ripping you while you’re at my side?
While I refrain from this animalistic sensación.
That takes over my body, mind, spirit & stride.
Not sure if I can control this temporary insanity.
Of wanting to straddle myself to the object of my desire.
To move with you with a slow beat
Creating a tune of pure, delectable heat.

You’re face, your voice, and your scent.
Pulls me toward you not making any kind of sense.
Geeeez trying to vent
This intent
Starvation
Mutilation
Copulation

Let me have a taste
To subside this immense hunger
Don’t fret bring it here
I’m harmless
Until I contain
This rabid hunger

Eager to Learn (The Sequel)
A student who catches on quick
Not looking for anything bland
Need flavor, spices, of all different types
Needing to be devoured
Caress me
Bite me
Pull my hair
Handle me
The way only you can
Live up to the offer
Ride me
Give me pure ecstasy
In this universe, you’re there
Touching me
Hollering my name
Providing me
With the “ALIMENTO” that I need
That I seek
Hunger is burning
Need to feed
To appease this hunger within me
Arms open
Ready to receive
Walk toward me
Join me to consume this meal of pure ecstasy
Mixed with rawness & lust
Is this a crush
I’m ready to bust
School me
Pleading with you
Emotions stirring
Boiling
Almost there
No other
Encircle me in yours
Teach me
For I am
So desperately
Eager to learn

On My Mind
Many thoughts
Emotions
Creeping in my head
Thoughts of you
Floating
Toward me
Arms open
Heart exposed
Happiness transcending
Love encircling
The feeling of sitting
By a warm fireplace
Snuggled up close
The lingering scent
Of your body next to mine
The smile that illuminates
The darkest of rooms
Your tenderness
Your intense stare
Your amazing wit
Still...
Feel your lips on mine
Sweet nectar
Soft -- yet firm
Bodies pressing
Needing . . .
Feigning . . .
Wanting . . .
See you soon.

Special Friend
My head is so full
Of you that is
Thinking of your
Wondrous spirit
Your amazing heart
Your flow
Your vibe
The way you looked
Into my eyes

I watched you move
Across the room
The bounce in your step
The sound of your laughter
With each and every breath

As you create words
Of endearment
Making sure I'm okay
Showing me that you cared
That you are at peace
With your ways.

You left me in awe
Struggling with what’s
In my head
My heart
My spirit

It was always easy
Not to feel
Just enjoy the moment
& Not make a big deal
Of the man
Sharing my time
On long walks
Conversations
Or a few rhymes

But here you came
From out of the blue
Never expecting
The kind of man
You represented
Or what you were
Up to

Thank you
For the second
We shared
It felt amazing
To know you
Were there

Be safe
Take care of you
Never falter in your step
Believe in your dreams
Never lose faith
For good things are to come
When you least expect it

Our friendship
Will forever endure
You are a peaceful spirit
That I want to keep secure
I wish you well
In your future ahead
She's lucky to have you
My Dear & Special Friend.

Your Arrival
You arrived in my life
Like a thief in the night
Capturing me
With magic in your eyes
Bringing forth words
Amazingly whole
Your flow is just right
Amazing me with
Intensity and insight

Never thought
For one minute
For one second
That this would happen to me
Sharing my inner self
The emotions
The experiences
The love
With thee

Emotions are all over the place
Not understanding
What has taken place
Our spirits cling to one another
We gravitate toward each other
This pull that we feel
Was created long ago
In a different time
Different place
It’s beyond the norm
For there is no explanation
As to what is happening
Between us
I can’t make sense of this
Can you
For if you could please
Share, do what you do

My body reacts
By just hearing your voice
Sitting at your side
Listening to a verse
Of you that is
No longer know
What this truly is

Only days have passed
Not years
Not months
How can that be
This closeness I feel
I must be hallucinating

But what a hallucination it is
So beautiful
So intense
So amazingly whole
To know that you are there
To hold me close

Don’t know what the future holds
Don’t know if we have
A second
A minute
An hour
Or even tomorrow
Don’t know if you’re
a season, a reason or a lifetime
Do know that I care
Do know that I want to share
Emotions deep within
As you and I carry this further
Than it’s ever been

Feeling safe with you
Is so easy to do
For you open your arms
Letting me in
Without a second glance
Of where we’ve been

Thank you for finding me
For listening to our guardians
They led you to me
Showing you
That life still holds
Hope
Laughter
Love
Fulfilled dreams

Your arrival …
Right on time…

LOVING & SEX
My heart starts beating
With every touch
Kiss
Caress
As you whisper
Words of endearment
Eroticism
Sex

Grinding on my body
As we kiss
Deeply
Passionately
Nibbling
Biting
Sucking
Tasting
As we explore
Our very core
Making each other
So amazingly sore

The heat of our flesh
Sizzles with each touch
Melts with each kiss
As your tongue travels
Through unknown
Valleys & peaks
An exhale escapes
My swollen lips

Wow I feel you deep
Yes love
Leave it there
I don’t want you
Going anywhere

The emotion I see
The mirror of your soul
Are exposed
To my receiving spirit
Speaking a language
All its own
Multitudes of emotions
Pouring out
Surrounding me
Protecting me
Receiving me
Wrapping me
Close
In your arms
Ever so tight
How can this be?
This pouring of love
From you to me

You say, “Babe you fit”
As well as you
My inner self
Craves for food
But not of the ingested kind
The food that only comes
From you being mine

My body….
Wants
Feigns
For you
To place it
Right there
Between my towers
Caressing my flower
Full of sweet nectar
So delectable to your palate
Good to the last drop
With every moan
Of ecstasy that escapes
My lips
As I pop

You capture each sound
That escapes from my lips
Moving to my rhythm
Pressing hip to hip
Moving in unison
To this beat that’s
Created by two
Only known by us
As only we can do

As we lay
In each other’s arms
We glisten
From our sweat
Welcoming a new day
Of more loving & sex

My Destiny
Singing the song
Of freedom
As I pursue
The dream
That consumes
Me

Obstacles are placed
Opportunities are erased
But I move on
Toward my destiny
My place

My step may falter
I may fall
Picking myself up
Dusting myself
Off

I am in control
Of my destiny
No one can deter
ME
From the ultimate dream
Of goals
Love
Happiness
Realities

Daily activities
May tire me
Both emotionally
Spiritually
My will is strong
Determined
To walk toward
My destiny
Climbing stairs
Of impossibilities
Never faltering
In my step
For I have my destiny
Sketched before me

Bringing forth
The ultimate synergy
Completely
Totally
Positively
Amazingly
Whole
This Latina Queen
Will achieve
The dream she
Set forth
So long ago

This song will be heard
Without the help
Of these wannabes
For they are vultures
Devouring words of
Poets
Writers
Blowing balloons
Of different shapes
And colors
Promising dreams fulfilled
And coming back
With empty dollars

This beauty
Is in motion
Magic words
Will materialize
To the naked eye
Ya’ll better not blink
For I will whisk you
With the words
Of a poet
Blend you “un jugo”
Of infinite wisdom
And flava

My belief is to accomplish
Plain and simple
There may be detours
Roadblocks
Signs that continue to come up
But it’s all good
When I muster
This strength within me
To scream words
That I need to let out
Not tomorrow
But today
Changing my destiny
Is what needs to come
To play

Trusting others
To create concerts
To hear the lyrics
To my song
Big mistake
From my part
When you want
Something done
You have to do
It on your own
To create your own flow

Destiny …
Hear my words
Destiny…
Read my words
Destiny…
Feel my words
I am coming
To rock
This world

The Person that is You
Baby I've tried to hide
This fear that lives inside
What if and what will be
I lose myself in you
Trying to explain this
Yearning
Desire
Which has enraptured
This burning fire
That lives within me
Who are you
To bring forth
This energy

This fire that
You alone want to
Put out
With the lance
Of past kings
Promising satisfaction
And delight
Appeasing
My appetite

What a feat this is for you
For this lady is hard
To get close too
Her armor is strong
Her will even stronger
But you’ve weakened
A part of her
That she chooses
To ignore
For her stories have been
Sad, painful & long

Life put her in this place
It was safer to deal
For in that
It was NOT required to feel
In the heart that is
Just carnal satisfaction
No emotion attached
Sharing of two bodies
In this way & that

Hmmm come here
I want to feel
You inside
The moist tunnel
Of my being
My soft spot of yearning
Where love trickles forth
Drops of pure ecstasy
Where you'll explore
As the settlers of our past
Excavating a new world
Of love & lust
Enter at your own risk
For this tunnel is full
Of eroticism
Pornographic images
Sweet paradise
Engorged fruits

As your body
Responds to mine
I surrender to you
In body
Not mind & spirit
Those belong to me
To give those to someone
He must TRULY be
My friend
Confidant
Lover
Boo
If and when
That comes to play
I welcome him
But in the mean time
I enjoy my place.

So make me hiss
Make me moan
Show me places
That I can roam
For I will give
100% of my body
So bring it
Show me
What you got
I bet you a dollar
I’ll turn your ass out
Nah babe
Don’t be intimidated
By my forwardness
It’s cool
I just want
To enjoy
The person
That is you

In All Good Time
Our friendship blossoms
A new flower
With each passing day
You have touched my life
In such an inspiring way
With the love of music
The love of self
The love of life
The love that helps
Me move
To a special place
Of no time
No space

Capturing dreams
Inspiration
Happiness
Ultimate elation

A gift from
The heavens above
A reminder
That I am truly loved

Such a giving spirit
Never expecting in return
Energy that is pure
Rare

Taking this moment
Thanking you for gracing my life
With your friendship
Your love
It means so very much

Looking forward
To a new day
Sharing sunsets
Blue waters
Rides by the oceans
With my feet on the border
Of dreams
Created
By you & I
As this friendship blossoms
And brings new light

Created in a place
Way back when
In the back of our minds
Which will be brought
To the forefront
In all good time.

DO YOU FEEL ME TOO
How do you see
What's within me
In a minute
A second
That you shared with me
The door to my soul
Has been closed
For far too long
It's a comfortable place
Safe & warm

To open myself
To someone
Who just walked
Into my life
Is difficult
Even impossible
The road has been
Painful
Full of
Tears & Sorrow
I'm reminded
For a fraction of a minute
What I have been missing
In the years
I have been living

I have yearned the warmth
That surrounds me
As I'm being held
By the one that
Comforts me
Feeling safe
Once again
Bringing forth
Tears
Hope
Happiness
Forgetting
The pain
That's changed
Me

I lay back
In your arms
I know
That you will
bestow no
Harm
You
Protect
Me
From the
Raging storms
That will come forth

"I got you" is what
comes forth
from your lips
as I look in your eyes
I see the truthfulness
Behind your words
For you have nothing
To hide
Nothing to lose

Looking forward
To be given
The chance
For you to
Remind me
Once again
Of what is there
Before me
As you hold me
Tight
Within
Your arms
Keeping me
Close
To your
Body's warmth

I meditate
On what I feel
As I am being held
I realize that
If given
The chance
I want to share
A moment
A second
A fraction
Of a minute
With You
My question is
Do you feel me too?

Take Heed
My brotha of different flavas
Surrounding me
Sharing their insight & laughter
Songs of different lyrics
With the same tune
Promising the impossible
The rarity
Of their seed
Waiting for their flow
To be heard
To take their lead

Their goal is to conquer
This Latina queen
To grab what is lusted after
What they need
Tapping this Boriqua’s ass
Is what they seek
Not what resides in the heart
Soul, mind
As they try to creep
To my love spot
Which is warm & deep
Seeking only their release

Trying to hit
What’s between
My thick thighs
So smooth
So hot
Bringing forth
Screams
Moans
& Erotic pops

That’s what my handsome
Brothas seek
Not what this queen
Represents
Or
What she speaks

I feel the need
To express my wisdom
& Knowledge
To my faltering brothas
Who feel they have
The power
To conquest
A sistah
With a smile
& A dollar

It’s not the physical
We initially seek
It’s the lovemaking
In the mind
That starts off
The emotional beat

Take heed to the wisdom
At hand
If not my advice
Will dissipate
In the warm
Grainy sand
Lovemaking starts
In the head
Not between
Our luscious legs

So approach us
Correctly
With much respect
You’ll be surprise
At the end result
& What you’ll get

Friendship
You don't need
Money
Or luxuries.
Be there
For your friend
Whenever he
Needs a hand.
To know
He can depend
On you
Means more
To him
Than you’ll
Ever understand.
To be a friend
You don't need glory.
Friendship is a simple story.
A story
Of interaction
With one another.
To share the storms
The rainbows.
To hold on to each other.
Enjoy each friendship
Put forth effort.
For in the long run
Your reward will be great,
You come across
Many people
Not everyone
will take that place.

Yearning

You yearn to feel

My lips on yours

& yet

Something stops us

From breaking this fear

The fear of being close to you

Is something I keep close

For it reminds me of times

That were destructive & coarse

I yearn to love again

If given the chance

But the memories of the pain

I endured stops me

As I lower my glance

I need to know I am safe

From the harm

& and the pain

Don't want to be there

In that chaos

So I refrain

From the closeness

This kiss will bring

As I walk away

I choose to ignore

Your stare

As you try to figure out

the woman you want

to keep so close to your side

That is for she runs away

From where she's been

& where she hides.

I Exhale
Spending time
Thinking
Of the blessings
I have

The peacefulness
That surrounds
My spirit & mind
I exhale...

The love
Before me
The comfort
As he envelopes
Me in his arms
Whispering his love
I exhale...

The scent of him
The mere sight of him
Hmmm
I exhale...

His walk
His talk
His stride
The dimple
On the side
I exhale...

His words
That are expressed
As he lays down to rest
I exhale....

Laying beside him
Watching him sleep
Realizing that he's for keeps
That my love runs way too deep
I exhale...

My partner
My best friend
My lover
My everything
DAG, I exhale...

Laying beside him
While he sleeps
Cuddling & fitting just right
Wrapping my arms around him
Ever so tight
I close my eyes...
I breathe him...

And Exhale....

Emotional Roller Coaster
He says he loves me
Wants to be with me
Lets create a future together
Is what he says
Never apart
Always together
For we can create
For the better of this world
Yeah right
Brotha please
Tell this to someone
Who will listen to your plea

Don’t you see
That all the words
That flows out of your mouth
Is a created fabrication
Of what you want to believe
Can be

Don’t you see that
No matter how many flowers
You throw my way
I question the judgment
Of your crooked ass ways

The trust is no longer
The movement is but further
From the reality we once had
You don’t create the music
That played in my mind
Like a symphony
Blowing my inside

The time has passed
We can’t go back
To what used to be
It’s a done deal
A dream unfulfilled
No longer my present
Definitely my past
Don’t you see
You no longer fill
The need to
Scream
Jump
Cry
Gasp
To tap
Heart
Spirit
Mind
Like that

You played yourself out
No longer
Want to have
You on my bed
Or on my couch
Just tell
Your lies to someone else
Who’ll listen
For I’ve stepped out

I hear what you saying
No longer interested
In what you have to say
Please step aside brotha
And let this Boriqua
Be on her way..

Hunger
The pulse that I feel
Between my thighs
Does not want
To subside
The throb is like no other
Bringing forth pain & hunger

Awakening me from
My sleep & slumber
Looking for that
Lumber jack that
Got my lumber

As my body & mind
Puts me on that singular track
I turn back & forth
Forth & back
Seeking release
Seeking escape
Seeking satisfaction
Seeking passion
Without moments of distraction

My body …
Wants
Needs
Craves
Satisfaction
From this carnal
Distraction

More than words
More than height
The body & mind
Is seeking special delivery
Of the rough
Loving type

Waiting at the door
With nothing on
I hear his knock
Its time to get it on…

Playa
You're my woman
I'm your man
Is what he claims
after days of disappearing acts
Baby, you know you're my heart
my world, my everything
Yeah I can see
the true identity
of the playa before me
of the hustler in my mists
His tongue full of sweet
words, macking bon bons
of different flavas
special treats

You thinkin you have me
feigning for what you got
Baby, let me inform you
of something if you forgot
you're NOT the only one
that carries that
or who can hit my spot

My lovemaking starts in the mind
not between my legs
or my luscious thighs
The physical
is not the only way to satisfaction
Capture the mind
the heart
the soul
and everything else
Will soon follow after

Your playa ways
do not impress me
Thinking
you're slick
that your macking is tight
Guess again papito
sorry to disappoint
your slickness & vibe

Its time for a reality check
this female
needs a lot more
than you throw out
to be impressed

You need to capture
the top
the bottom
the side
of this ripe fruit
called my mind
pick my brain
see what’s in flight
before you
throw me your
tired
old
line
your limited vision
only allowing you to see
what you have created
not the true reality

Do me a favor
save your lines
for someone
who's willing to listen
to your created lies
Don't insult me
with your bullshit & cries

It's cool babe
I'm not hating
just move your flow
to someone else
who's waiting
for the tickets
to your show

You & I
You awaken
A hope
That was lost
Buried
Deep
Within me
A fire
That was
Extinguished
You have
Made it
Burn
Once again
My body
Responds
To your voice
As you create
Words
Lyrics
Music
Poetry
For my soul
You play
Musical notes
To my song
Playing the strings
To my instrument
Beating the drums
To my heart
Soul
Spirit
Mind
You know
The verse
Tender words
Spoken
Softening
My inner core
Rivers run
Deep within me
Lubricating
The flower
Between my thighs
Allowing it to
Flourish
Giving forth
A gift
Of divine ecstasy
I hear
The beat
That devours me
In the dark
As I place
An image
Of your face
Close to mine
I imagine
Our bodies
Intertwined
Absorbing
The warmth
Of each others bodies
Pressing against
The smoothness
Sharing togetherness
Wholeness
Sweetness
The taste
Divine
Euphoric
Catastrophic
Amazingly erotic
Looking forward
To meshing
My spirit
With yours
Created under
A star filled night
Holding each other
Ever so tight
Sharing a moment
So divine
Which brings us
To a different time
Of tranquility
& Love
While you & I
Become one.

WHERE WERE YOU

Where were you

When things were tough

Where were you

When I had enough

Where were you

When arms were empty

When I needed

To be comforted

& carried

Where were you
As I sought
Love from you

Needed to be
Uplifted by you

Where were you

When the emptiness

Consumed me

When I needed someone

To converse with
To share verses with
Time & space

Separated

Destroyed

Removed

The love I felt

You were no longer

The one I sought

Comfort from

No longer the arms

I found shelter in

No longer felt Safe

No longer were you
My protector

No one knew the depth

Of the pain within me

Of the ache that tore at me

The solitude that was felt

When I laid alone with self

I craved for arms to be filled

The distance --

Embraced our separation

Time sealed the creation

Of no you – no us

The wounds healed --

Scars remained

Memories locked away

As our time has come to an end

I welcome the future ahead

I embrace the new me

The reigning queen

So the question remains

Where were you

The answer…..

Nowhere to be found

MOANS & GROANS
A collabo by Aminah Love & Narosis

I wanna hear your moans & groans
But not of despair
In ecstasy
When I smack that ass
& pull your hair

My ass backs up to you Papi
As you touch me there
Make me scream your name
As you bring forth
Ecstasy with screams & despair

Forceful minus malice & spite
By the flicker of a candles light
We join like the ingredients
To a cake
Rising to the occasion
Of meeting satisfaction
With delight

As we mix our batter
The forcefulness
Consumes our very soul
We move to a rhythm
All our own

Stirred not shaken
Mutually given not taken
Out & in
Over & over again
And again
We enjoy our thrusting & heaving
Laughing after listening
To our heavy breathing

As we take a moment to rest
To enjoy that feeling
That has been left
I turn over & thank God
For the man laying beside me
For the man I got
I’ve learned that there is so
Much more than the lovemaking act
Its the sharing & giving
That brings it back

In the now & the here after
Moans & groans becomes
Shrieks & laughter
After a little rest again
The mood is set
To just the right tone
As we return to the practices
Of sharing the occasional
Moan & groan.

OUR ETERNITY
It is clear
these words
expressed
like a song
that was sung
at a time past
yet recognized
in this realm
where we reside
sharing this moment
in time
sharing
thoughts
lyrics
a time
familiar
to my
heart
spirit
mind
soul

As we walk
toward each other
our destiny
is created
by an artist's
hand
carefully
painted
with
vibrant colors
as he waits
for it to dry
he knows
this is his
best work
a masterpiece
of rare proportions
our destiny
laid
before us
waiting
for
our eternity

THE COMING YEAR

A new year
is upon us
leaving behind
the old
welcoming the new --
New hopes begin
to flourish
dreams begin
to form
goals begin
to grow
plans begin
to create themselves
wondering what
the New Year
will bring
The anticipation
of what's to come
is a welcoming mat
for those who need
something to believe in

As the year
comes to a close
we reflect on the
year passed
things we would
have done differently
words that we wish
were never said
actions never taken
shared moments
with that special someone
new individuals
who have touched
your life in a moment
loved ones who have passed

What awaits us
in the year we don't know
but whatever it may be
we ask God to carry us
through the difficult times
thank him for our blessings
pick ourselves up & dust
ourselves off when the
need arises, and live
life to the fullest

SON
Little one
Every day
You bring
Great joy
Your smile
Lightens
My life
To have you
By my side

You’re
Unconditional
Love
Helps me
To face
Each new dawn

You give me
Strength
To conceive
Dreams
Aspirations
Motivations
Exploration
Allowing me
To give you
Direction

Your innocence
Reminds me
Of all the beauty
That surrounds me
Those eyes
Precious
Glowing
Expect
For me
To make
Things right
I will do
What’s in my
Power
As long as
God give me
The might

Yet …
When I am
At my lowest
Your love
So unconditional
Brings me
Solace
Reminds me
That I have you
To fight for

When things
Are rough
I know I have
You
I do
What
I must

Thank you
For the cuddles
For the kisses
The hugs
I am blessed
To have you
Close to my
Heart

Your words
“Mama you are
A beautiful wildflower”
Fills my heart
Reminding me
How lucky
I have YOU
For a son

Never forget
I am here
For as long
As you need me
Our goal
Is for you to
Succeed
And be
All you
Can be.

My Prayer to Aeryn
I believe
Our little one
Can survive
What’s near
I believe
I have faith
I have a lending ear

She’s been
A fighter from
The start
How can this
Be the end
For this
Precious girl
For this
Precious star

I believe
In miracles
I choose
To push away
Any obstacles
That stand
In the way

I believe
Anything is possible
For God
Has to process
All the prayers
Supplications
Shouting of nations
Screaming to
Be heard
For they all
Want the best
For her

We are not ready
To let her go
We refuse to hear
The verdict
Of this precious
Little girl

This beautiful princess
Before us
Who wiggles
Her toes
Who’s tickled
By the crinkle
Of her Daddy’s nose
We are not ready
To let
this beauty
go

You should see
Her smile
How she encaptures
You with her
Spirit
Strength
Eyes
Bliss
Who sparkles
Who lights up
A room
With her laughter
She Captures
Every tune

This being
Grabs the very
Essence of perfection
As small as she is
She’s taught us
A great lesson
To love & forgive
Those who are
In our lives
Not hold on
To negativity
& cries

She gives us hope
And shows us
What she’s made of
No one can remove
Her blessing to us

My friends
Need you God
To help their
Little girl start
On the path of
Healing
To help them
Have the
Strength to
Fight for their
Little girl
So that she
Can continue
To bless us
With her warmth
& unconditional
Love

TO MY LYRICAL SISTA
(YOUR RESPONSE)

My sista
I feel the need
To write you
To place
Pen on paper
To create
Words that
Will guide you

I understand
The turmoil
The anguish
The frustration
You’re going through
Emotions that
Consume your heart
Spirit
Mind
Which create
Confusing lyrics

Lyrics that you
Can’t comprehend
Lyrics that describe
Men

My sista
Your lyrics
Need to flow
To guide your
Inner soul
The one that
Shows you
What is right & wrong
The one that brings
You forth to a new dawn

The men that pass you by
Are like a breeze
In a cloudy gray sky
Not what you are seeking
Someone to converse
With
Someone that’s speaking
The song that you want
To hear
Remember that we cannot
Expect for them to appear

Faith is a strong
Powerful emotion
Without this
It will
Be hard
Even difficult
To locate
What you are after

We come across
Leaches
Wanna be brothas
Who claim they
Are kings
Angels
Saviors
Etc…
But their words
Are filled with
Chaos of different verses
Verses that confuse the mind
The soul
The flow

We need to be careful
Of who we give
Our energy
Our bodies
Our longing
Our everything

We are precious
Jewels
Rare commodities
Of a different race
We wish to escape
The drama
The pain
The love
That is insane

I understand
Where you’re coming from
I know your pain
It’s difficult to find
Your soul mate
The flesh is weak
We tend to want
To feast
On what
Is there
Something that
Will not fill
The need
Of despair

Man cannot fill
That need
We must find
Solace in the
Love of ME
Not someone
Else
We need to be

So believe in
YOU above
Everyone else
You will see
That you will
Conquer this
& will not need
my help

So do you sista
Do what
Feels right
All things come
At the time
that is right

STILL
Your body haunts me
When you are close
Remembering
The passionate nights
We shared
Makes me long for
What is there
STILL
Between us
How can it be
When there is
No us

This fire
Between you & I
Pulls me to you
Every single time

To see you walk
Across the room
Fills me with a
Craving
That is driving
Me crazy

Your scent
Makes me want
To climb a wall
As if I were an addict
Ready to fall

I watch your face
When you speak to me
I can’t help but to
Want to scream

From the passion
I feel
Am I to be
A woman
Without will

The scenarios
Play in my mind
Like a rerun
From an old movie

I stand up
Walk out of the room
For I feel I have
More control
If I am no longer
In the presence
Of you

Looking forward
To the days
That I can look
And not want
To touch
For this agony
Of wanting you
Is driving me nuts

Your Journey

As our time
Comes to an end
I ponder over the
Moments
Seconds
Minutes
Hours
Of knowing
You

What a blessing
It has been
To have shared
This time
With you

You are beauty
That's what I see
When I look
At you
Looking at me

Your heart
Full of goodness
I am truly blessed
To have stood
In your presence
For you’ve
Reminded me
Of what true essence
Is

Your eyes glow
When you speak
You wear your heart
Where I can see
Your words are measured
Not too much
Not too little
Just enough
To make me giggle

You begin
Your journey
Soon
I understand
What you
Need to do

I stand behind
Your decision to do it
Your reward
Will be great
When you pursue it

Your presence
Will be missed
Conversations
Laughter
Moments we kissed
All the things
That came after

We knew
This would not be
Forever
Yet the moments
That we shared
Were rare treasures

Remember the moments
Remember these lines
I will never forget the
Rare & special times
For they were special
To me
Every single one
As we came
Together
In this
Union
Of bliss & fun

May your journey
Be filled with love
Happiness
Blessings
From above
I wish only
The best
For the friend
That I love

Be blessed hazel eyes
Keep in touch
Remember to
Remember
What was special
Between us

Beauty

It's in the eyes of the beholder
To gaze upon a human face
Is to look in the eyes of our creator

People on this earth
Gaze upon you
Judging the cover
Not the heart
In looking at the heart
You are blessed to know
The TRUE beauty of
The person inside

God's Blessings
My Son's Health
Security for my child
Family
Beloved friends
My job

I realize
I am truly blessed
God watches
over me
when I am stressed.

He opens the door
Let's me in
Reminds me
Of the love
I have within.

Struggle

The struggle
Of racism
Is an every day
Thing
You read it
In newspapers
You hear it
On TV

When will this be enough
The struggle
Escapade
Bringing forth
Anger & rage

Are we not all
Children of God
What’s up with
This division
Of chaos & guns

So many years
Of cries of
Freedom
Sacrifice
Death
Stench
Repentance

We are all equal
In the eyes of our Lord
This is bullshit
This is absurd

Because I am
Different than you
Doesn’t give you
The right
To light my fuse

We will all die
The same
We will rot
And have the maggots
Have their way

Don’t be
Racist toward me
I am the same
It’s a shame
You don’t agree

Step aside
Keep your racist way
I will not tolerate
Your ignorance
Your charade

I am beautiful
Just as God wanted
Me to be
Your ignorance
Has nothing
To do with me

I am free
From the binds
Of slavery
For my ancestors
Created a way
That I can shine
With bravery
To keep up
The faith.

Hazel Eyes

Hazel Eyes
Encaptures
Motivates
Stimulates
Me from within

His humbleness
Captures
Enraptures
Delivers me
From chaos
I see clearly
I feel serene
He’s the ice cream
Of my dreams

The beauty that transcends
From him
Folds me
In a warm
Cozy blanket

His calm spirit
Creates waves
Of peacefulness
To my spirit
He makes it easy
To share
A lifetime
In his presence
In his care

His body moves to a rhythm
Of unsaid words
Folding me
Closer to his universe

His voice
Words
Expressions
Are serene songs
To my soul

His touch
Caress
Look
Laughter
Shows me
What he’s truly
After

His touch
Is smooth
As silk
His hunger
Brings forth
Fire & ecstasy
As he takes me
He tears down
My will

Lindo
Definition
Beautiful
Precioso
That’s about right
For this unique
Kind of guy

It’s an honor
To know him
To be in the
Presence of this man
For this I am grateful
To have had
A moment in his life
Until the day
We say goodbye

But until
That day comes
I will enjoy
Every blessed moment
We share as one.

Goodbye

Reminiscing
Experiences
Love
Hurt
What could’ve beens

How did we get here
We said it would be
Forever

What happened
To the
Promises
We voiced
Why do we hurt
Each other
With all this noise

Our union was
Created in a different
Life
We were together
As man & wife

Being apart
Has taken its toll
On you & I
It’s been an
Emotional roller coaster
An awful terrifying ride

Your warmth I crave
As I touch the spot
Where you laid

I watch you from afar
Trying to be strong
Not showing you
That something is
Truly wrong
My heavy heart
My soulful cries
The memories I
Choose to put aside

It’s the only way
I will heal
If I can push aside
What I truly feel

No future for our love
Far too much damage
Has been done

I wish you well on your journey
In life
A life without me at your side

Thank you for the special times
We shared
For the intimate moments
That showed you truly cared

Goodbye my love
May you always be well
See you in the next life
I hope you’ll be there

NO

What gives you
The right to
Disrespect
Disgrace
Violate
My body

Who gave you permission
To
Destroy
Spirit
Heart

It’s mine to give
To
Share
Explore
Surrender
Not yours
To take
At your will

NO means NO
Not yes
Not Maybe
I have worth

Who are you
To push yourself
On me
Who are you
To take it
To that degree

This is a violation
Of my body & soul
Don’t you hear & feel
My screams & elbows

Don’t want to be here
Don’t want to do this
Don’t you hear me
No
No
No
God, please help me

The aftermath is horrid
How did I end up here
What did I do wrong
I trusted a brotha
To hear my song
I opened the door to a
Stranger
That I didn’t really know
He pushed on me
As if I was a HO

I am left used
Violated
Numb
Destroyed

The experience
Memories
Feelings
Never leave your mind
You have a choice
To move forward
Or to die

I choose to live
Survive
Move on
No longer a victim
Is what I am
I am here to
Lend you a hand

To guide you
Through this dark road
Reminding you that
You are not alone.

Crumbs

He calls
I jump
Let’s meet
It’s been a minute
I hurry
Get dressed
He's waiting
We see
We kiss
Have dinner
Make love
Spent
A moment is shared
Always busy
Never has time
Throws me a crumb
Dares to say he's mine.

To be used
When he’s horny
Is this fulfilling
No
The crumbs that are thrown
Is not what I want
I am but one
Of those
That he uses
When he's on the spot

Do I accept his offer
When it's thrown
Or do I walk away
And leave him the
Hell alone?

Crumbs are for those
You have no emotion for
or are not attached,
I am much more than that.

A full meal is what I crave
Not starvation that fills me
With loathe & decay
Of an individual that cannot
Fulfill my needs
For he has only crumbs
To feed.

The Process

We talk

We meet

We like

We share

We stop

A moment transpires

We Kiss

"Goodbye, I'll call you.."

No phone call

I call

Voicemail

No call back

The process ends.

The Conqueror

I process all information in my head

the fact that I'm single all over again

Am I ready to be a contender

to the wanna be's that are prowlers

ready to jump on their first prey?

Do I want to put myself out there?

Like an animal to a slaughter house

knowing what would be the outcome

of exposing my inner self to the contender

It doesn't appeal to me

to expose my vulnerability

to the brothas that are on line

to devour my heart

I don't want someone to have power over

emotions

thoughts

body

soul

I want to have control over me

not some loser who is full of

make believe

Let me decide

if he's worth my dime

to laugh with, love, and spend time

Its on me to control this situation

without contradictions or reservations.

I choose to grow in all facets of life

as a woman, mother, wife

There is no ending to what I want

for I will succeed in this game of

cut throats & playas

I will gain my composure & not

be fearful of what's to come

'cause I will be the conqueror

I will be the one.

No Us

The breeze kisses my body
sunlight touches my face
the ocean hits my feet
grainy sand spreads through my fingers

The mere thought of you consumes me
many questions
no answers
empty arms
no you
no us

I awake in the middle of the night
feel your body next to mine
reaching out for your warmth
no you
no us

Your image passes by
your scent lingers
the imprint of your body remains
I open my eyes,
I am reminded of..
no you
no us

I will never forget Saturday, September 15, 2007. My first poetry reading! What an experience. Prior to the event I was so nervous, didn't really know what to expect. I was prepared to showcase my paintings for the first time that in itself was an experience that I will never forget

I want to talk about the emotions I felt when I read my poetry to everyone there. Wow! what a rush! My knees were knocking together. LOL! Everyone said that I didn't look nervous at all, that my poetry was awesome, and that my words flowed, I was even called vivacious.

The accomplishment that I felt after, was amazing. For years I have written my words on paper, and never shared with a group of strangers. My dream was to read my poetry at an event. The moment was worth more than I could ever express on paper.

The selling of my paintings was another accomplishment of that day. I sold 7 in total. That in itself was proof that I was on the road of my destiny.

I want to take a moment to thank Cathy Delaleu, for being there for me. For letting me help her with the fine details of the Tavern of Creativity's event. For giving me that extra push that I needed. I love you girl!! God put you in my path.To my friends & family, thank you so much for the support you showed me. (Angie, Isa, Roda, Charlene, Neyra, Gina, Pattience) I love you all with all my heart. My world is a better place because you are in my life.

I'm looking forward to the next poetry reading, which will be September 28th! I am also looking forward to the new paintings that will be created. I will be scanning the painting that I have to share with you. If you're interested in purchasing please send me a note at aminahloveforever@yahoo.com.

Peace & Love for always.

Wait

Wait....
Listen....
To the beat of my heart....
As you press your body close to mine.

Wait....
Feel...
The heat....
That transcends from my body
as you touch mine.

Wait....
Taste....
The sweetness of my juice...
That you will drink...
as you devour me.

Wait...

Wait....

Wait....

The climax that comes
from you loving me.

Get to Stepping

I'm tired of this mess
I need to take a rest,
from you that is,
no longer want this chaos
that I'm living in.

Leave me alone!

Don't approach me anymore!
Get to stepping, depart from my side
I want to be free, to fly, to explore!
Stop being a thorn at my side that is
I'm tired of your bitching & moans & what ifs.

Isn't it enough that I've given
you years of my life?
To have sacrificed so much --
For what? For You?
Someone that didn't appreciate
the words that were true.

I will take back what is mine
for you tried to beat me down
you no longer have the strength
to keep me from flying through
the clouds.

Get to stepping
Flee from my side
I want more than what
you offer -- don't let the
door hit your behind.

I'm happy spending time with myself
I have a whole lot to offer
So hear me Scream!
Hear me Roar!
You will be in awe
when you see me soar!

Bodies In Motion

I walk toward you
You open your arms
Look in my eyes
Place a kiss on my full lips.

I open my lips to you
Receive you deep within
As I taste the nectar of your mouth
A wave of emotions stirs my soul
I wrap my arms around you
Welcoming you into my universe.

Come closer baby, yeah that feels right
Chulo, touch me there
It feels so good
Explore my body as only you could.

Papi, remove my clothes
I'll remove yours
We’re ready to explore
This emotion we’ve stored.

A night of loving is what we have in mind
As we lay at each other’s side
There are no words to voice
Our words are expressed through
The emotion of touch & noise.

Our bodies are in motion

as we move to our beat
We sweat to the flame

of our own heat.

Fill me with your loving negro,

don't stop!

Give me pleasure

until I pop!

The motion of our bodies

are like the rhythm of an African drum

as you, and I

become one.

Love

Such a simple word.
What an impact it brings.
Far overwhelms the heart.
Fulfills our needs.

The love of a mother toward her child,
Is unselfish and complete.
I've been blessed to know this in my personal tale,
For she carries me when I am weak.

The love of a daughter toward her mother,
how important that is.
Never forgetting the sleepless nights she gave me,
remembering that it's "MY" arms she now needs.

This love carries me through chapters in my life--
As I watch her now, I cherish the love she bestowed

At the time she knew how.

Brotha

Here's a man who blesses me with his works
he thinks of me often,
& never let's me feel alone.

Takes a moment of his day,
to tell me how much he cares.
Sending me words of comfort,
so that I can float on air.

Thank you, brotha,
for remembering me,
for sharing your loving,
& kind words.

Which brings a smile to my face,
and illuminates my universe.

Past Love

Encountering a passed emotion
A passed memory
Moments we once shared

His touch
His breath on my skin
His manly smell

You begin to feel the “familiar”
That you felt so long ago.

A chapter that was never finished
Curiosity consumes you
The yearning of seeing him once again

How will you react?
How will he react?
Will emotions & passions be re-ignited?

I welcome his presence once again
To see what he’s doing
And learn where he’s been.

My Past Love ---
Welcome home.

I look at you from afar

I see how much older you've become

remembering your struggle

to raise us one by one.

Life has been hard for you

this I know.

Yet your struggles have empowered

you to move forward

to go on.

How I wish I could have

given you a better life

No more struggle,

no more worries,

no more strife.

Know that I love you

with all that I have

you've been the greatest

mom, and I want you to

know that.

Where We Need To Be

Having you next to me –
Traveling life with you by my side –
Has brought ultimate peace from inside.

Your presence brings great joy –
To spend a moment encircled in your arms
Is to live in a world that bestows no harm.

Your lips the taste of sweet wine –
That drunkens my spirit, enraptures me to a different time.

This place that only you & I exist.
While our hot bodies mix.
Exploring each other as if it’s the last meal we’ll partake,
Hmm, that’s it baby take.
Take as much as you can,
For this is served buffet style
As many meals as you can muster
Just come & feast on this treat.

Fill your tummy with my love feast.

Yeah baby, we're feeling each other’s energies.
Capturimg the moment,
Praying that it’ll never end
While our cosmic energies are molding
It embraces us with yearning.

All that we crave is right here - within our reach.
Baby it is clear where we need to be!

Don't you agree?

When The Years Come To Pass

Cherishing you as I always have.
Watching the baby that I carried become a young man.

Your heart shines through your brown eyes.
Your smile glows as a sunrise.
If only you saw what I see, the amazing boy that completes me.

You are MY miracle
My handsome son -- what would I do with you, my little one?
You are my blessing from above.

As I carried you in my womb, I knew you were the “one” person to change my life.
To bring me great joy, happiness as you spread your wings for flight.

Remember I love you, how important you are to me.
I pray that in your teenage years you see.
I believe in you, love & cherish the moments we have.
Hope that there are more, when the years come to pass.

Will I Ever?

Will I ever love again?
Will this loneliness in my heart be filled?
Will I have someone to walk with in my older years?

Will I ever trust again?
Will I settle for what could’ve been?

Is there a soul mate to walk the road of life with?
Will I share thoughts, moments, secrets and bliss?

Will I ever feel that skip in my heart?
You know the one that reaches my core?
Will I be the one who they choose to ignore?

Will I ever be happy with someone in my life?
Or am I destined to walk alone in this moment
We call “life?”

2007-08-16T14:09:00.000-04:00

Why?

What power do you have over me?
What makes you change my mind?
I decided there is no “us”, no you, & I.

Your presence encaptures me
Your essence turns on my feelings
Feelings of you & I together
Sharing a moment in time
Not surrounded by clouds… but sunshine.

You claim you love me
You share your inner emotions
Why do I doubt your intention & devotion?

Believing in Self

Believing in self is the key to move mountains.
It's the ingredient that’s needed to accomplish your goals,

dreams, and aspirations.

When you believe in self, all things are possible.

All things are at your reach.

Positive energy transcends from within
It will come across in actions.

Obtaining the positive is a difficult task,
Especially in this chaotic world we live in.

Be calm within yourself,
This will allow you to make the right decision
Meditate, and ponder your thoughts.
You will find what you sought.

All things are possible.
Believe that you can accomplish your goals.

Be humble, love self, and love your neighbor,
Forgive trespasses life may incur on you.
Believe in You -- Believe in Self.

Perception of Life

Sitting in my living room,

contemplating on life,

how time passes,

how the years fly.

Friends have come & gone.

Good times have been shared

Children, responsibilities occupy our lives;

creating memories, moments in time.

We reflect on relationships passed.

What could've been different

People who touched our lives,

changed our perception on the emotion,"love."

As we get older, we realize

what was important, is not.

Our perception of life are our own experiences

passed through the years,

placed in a box to sort through in our older years.

Special Token

Should I give it all up or should I stay?

Betrayal

You don't remember our love?
How can you disregard our past?
Seven years, I have put into this relationship
How can you play me like that?

We have shared ups & downs
Not once have I thought to bounce.

An argument propels you to make a mistake.
Forget the vows that we were to partake?

You lie about where you were.

You expect me to believe your word?

Relationship is damaged.

My hurt is intense.
My trust is gone
No more is left.

Journey

We travel a lonely road.
It spreads far and wide.
There is no end to our sorrows,
to our cries.
We let out a sigh.

A lifetime to walk.
A lifetime of passages
that seem overwhelming at times.
The need to remain strong,
to know all will be alright.

You might think I'm crazy,
even lost
our strength is most important
permit to be taught.

The journey we take upon ourselves
is a most difficult one.

Let it build your spirit.
Let it give you strength.
Be loving, kind, respectful
Work it to the end.

You'll be rewarded
trust me when I tell you.
God has a funny way of showing you
your own reflection.

So go through the JOURNEY of your life.
Keep it real!

Keep up the Fight!

Your shoulders are heavy.
Your burdens are great.
Yet you continue forward,
without despair, but with grace.

I admire you for everything you've done,

and will do. You're a rock, and I love you with all my heart.

Things are hard right now, I know this to be true.
But I have faith in the future, and you should too.
The day we lose faith, that's when all ends.
We need to remain strong, hopeful, and keep believing.

So baby girl, hold on to my hand.
I'll help guide you through the storms.
Remember our bond that's so strong.

My Time To Scream

I'm screaming inside
It's so loud that it's driving me insane I see no light
I try to calm my inner voice
It continues to rage.
An anger that consumes my very soul
And brings me back again.

These words unsaid are filling my mind.
The words need to be heard --
Yet I am unable to quench
This undeniable thirst.

So much chaos surrounds my head.
It's a turmoil that consumes my inner core.
It goes all the way up to the ceiling, and
Then right back to the floor.

These words want to be formed.
Created for others to read,

To understand what I'm feeling - -

to share my world, my need.

It consumes me night, and day.
As I try to calm this beast that wants
To rage, and not go away.

Should I give it wings to fly?
To form it's own mind?
Many people would be affected by my words.

Yet they need to be let out,

before I flip the hell out!

This is MY time, to shout, to scream,
To sing -- no one will stop me, be assured.

Whomever steps in my path,

watch out, hold on to something secure.

For I'm on a rampage!
Words are pouring out of me like a faucet to a drain.
It will not detain what's to come out, for I refuse to refrain.

So hold on to your seats people!
These words are flowing from this soul sista!

My time to SCREAM, that's right!

MY TIME --- TO SCREAM!!!

Eager to Learn

Who said I want you to be my man?

I just want you to devour me and caress me the best way you can.

Can you handle me?

Can you live up to the offer?

I hope so cause I want you to ride me,

and give me pure ecstasy.

In my universe, you're there.

Touching me, making me feel like a queen.

Can you provide me with the time that I need?

For I have a burning hunger that, I need you to feed.

My arms are open to receive you.

Come toward me and you will be in a sea of ecstasy.

Is this a crush, or is just lust?

School me baby, I plead with you,

for the emotions that are stirring within me are unknown.

Are they for you?

There is no other man who will be in my circles,

as long as you are there to encircle my body in yours,

and teach me your knowledge.

For I am, most definitely, eager to learn.

Butterfly

I crawl through my life, struggling to make things right.

Wanting and waiting for the right time to bless my life.

I walk through the fields of green

I realize that the beauty is right before me,

surrounding me with hope, life.

Changes will be made, for I wish them.

I will not let my fear of life overcome my spirit.

For I believe God has opened a path for me to walk on,

to transform into the beauty that is locked within.

The Happiness Within Me

I reflect on my inner self
the troubles and insecurities I have carried for so long.
How I yearn to erase them from my being.
Where do I begin to erase the negativity?

I yearn for greater things;
for dreams to be fulfilled.
The chaos of my past haunt me,
it rips inside my core.
I need to face what I choose to ignore.

I need to eradicate this demon that limits me
to pursue what I yearn -- what I need.
I need to reach for the happiness within me.

You will be rewarded trust me when I tell you.
God has a funny way of showing you your own reflection.

So go through the journey of your life.

Keep it real you'll be all right.

Evolve In Me

We have talked – him, and I.
On pressing news that we can no longer hide.
Words, emotions that have been bottled up inside.
Words that needed to be shared between us have been voiced.
Painful as they were to hear, they were his choice.

The journey between us has ended.
We'll find the strength to move on.
To a world that is new to us, a world that we'll walk alone.

With each day that passes, it gets better. I have faith.
But it will take a few steps back, and then forward to fully recover
This sad, and lonely place.

At this moment, I can't imagine sharing tender moments with anyone.
I need to take the time to become who I am, become whole again, and
In doing so be who I truly am.

As I look at the stars in the sky, I have hope of what the future holds.
For I believe that all things are possible through the strength of the Lord.
He'll help me through this path that I am on, for he has come through
In more ways than one.

Individuals that surround me want a moment, a second, a minute if given.
Yet I flee away from what they offer for I choose to close my feelings.
I need to heal, to recap, on what's real on this, and that.

I'll be alright! Both spiritually, and emotionally. I will evolve in me
When the time comes to be.

My Son

For my son, Fausto Micháel Santana

Look at my son, how precious he is -- the
innocence that transcends from him. The love
he displays to me is so special, and unique,
I wouldn't trade it for any treasures in the
deep.

He looks at me for direction in his life.
How can I not be there for him, when he'll
need me for the rest of his life.

God loved me so much that he gave me my son.
He didn't think twice, because he knew I
needed one.

My son is so special and divine. I am so
glad that he is all mine. I know that one
day he'll grow up to a man, and that he may
not need me the way he has, but for the time
that he's small, I will treasure it 'cause
he's my beloved boy, who shares with me his
unconditional joy.

Truly Free

The saga continues as another day passes by.
We've made peace once again I continue to ask, "why?"
Why can't we end this, and move on? It's like we're both
magnets that become one.

His energy pulls me, his body encaptures me.
As I lay, and wonder what happened.
We're on the roller coaster once again --
Did I pay for the ride? Was I asked? Or did my
subconcious decide that was that?

Why do I yearn his body so?
Why can't I just leave it alone?
This raw passion I feel when I am next to him.
This heat that I feel when he's close,
brings me to a point where I want to be coaxed.

I want him to take me the way that he does.
This raw passion that seduces us both, it's like an overdose.

He's a drug, that I'm addicted to.
I need to detox, but what do I do?
How do I rip him from inside,
when all I want is for him to lay by my side.

I need to scrape him from my skin.
So that I can start healing from within.

God if you hear me -- Give me the strength.
The power to move on without him I am hell bent.

Help me seperate him from me so I can be truly, and utterly free!

Questions Unanswered

I look at you, wonder what the future holds for you, and I.

I look at you, when you're sharing a moment with our son.

You're not aware of my glance; or my thoughts.

When we share a moment of intimacy, I feel your love.

The closeness we share, as I touch your face, entraps

us at that moment of time and space.

What do you want from Me?
As the woman that I am, I wonder what you seek?

Do you want to share moments in life?

Do you want to be my friend, or do you want me to be your wife?
Do you want to share moments in bed, or just chill instead?

Will you listen with a soft spirit?

Will you be my strength when I most need it?

Will you hold me with a tender touch?

Caress my body, and spirit with the intent to truly love?

What are your TRUE intentions toward my spirit?

Do you wish to help me grow as woman, or just pass me off

as a second glance?

Many questions unanswered in my mind --

What the future may be for us three, these are answers

which I seek.

Will you and I ever cross the threshold of husband, and wife?

Or will we continue this relationship with a fear of saying

good-bye?

These are the questions I present to you at this moment in time.
As I lay back, and envelop you in my spirit, and mind.

Spirit Realm

The spirit realm, who is there?
Are my ancestors watching over me,when I am in despair?
Do they guide me on the journey of my life?
Do they stand beside me?
Do their energies fill me, as I walk toward my destiny?

I feel their powerful energies all around me --guiding me toward a path that calls out to me.
Why do they reach out for me? What is it they they're trying to say?
All I feel are energies that surround me; that occupy my space.

As I walk toward this calling --I meditate on the teachings of my childhood.
The truth in the words, in the history of the greatest book ever written, ever told.

I stop, and question again......Who am I? What is my destiny?

BREATH AWAY

When I open my eyes
I see you there.

Gently, you bring me close to you.
protecting me from the rain,
As I touch your face
You carress my soul
Your lips touch mine
And I'm reminded
That you're just a
Breath away.....
