You

I needed to see something different

I had it all but something was missing

I prayed, I waited and you came

Undeniably heaven sent

You showed me all things beautiful

You did that for me

Can you blame me for wanting all of you just for me?

More than physical

I love your soul

I see your heart

There are no words to express

The peace I feel in your embrace

Flashbacks of your smiling face

The last thing I see before I go to bed

Sweet dreams of my head on your chest

Listening to your heart mimic my beat

It’s almost religious

How you were exquisitely designed just for me

I prayed and you came

Undeniably heaven sent

All I see is beautiful

Because all I see is you

You came

You left

But what we had will forever remain

Eternal love

Him

Him

Hombre

Incredible

Manly

I know nothing about him

Yet I know everything

And I knew I was in love

His presence exudes sexuality

His lips

His touch

His heat

All of him

Just for me

Just maybe

Carnal Bliss

His kiss on my lips

On all of them

His gentle strength

Heaven in his embrace

I thanked God

I thanked deities

Blasphemy at my peak

Skin to skin

He gives me life

And yet

He kills me at the same time

Cranberry And Love

We can hardly breath

Caught up in the moment

While he kisses me to sleep

His heartbeat was my lullaby

And I was his tantalizing peak

We live for the nights we can’t remember

With the ones that we won’t forget

Tonight we will remember it all

Waking up without a hangover

Overdosed on him

We made our own music

Moving to our own beat

New scene

we’ve been here before

He gave me a feeling

It’s what I’ve been looking for

He calls me his baby

We belong together

If we keep this up you won’t be able to breathe

Without me next to you

I can’t help that you have the same affect on me too.

The Act Of Love

We played our role

Academy performance

Perfect couple

You and Me

Always together

Picture perfect scenes

Me and you

Like a novel

Like a play

Practice makes perfect

And we couldn’t let them down

The audience

Always watching

Took no chances

No double takes

Scene one

Cut

Straight to the chase

You and I

We took a bow

As I forgot our vows

To love you forever

Show stopping

Putting on a show

For the world to see

To see us

As we should be

And now I see

I forgot the most important thing

I forgot to love you

Dimming lights

Empty stage

I did almost everything right

Perfect hair

Remembered all of my lines

But I forgot to love you

Perfect lips

Glossy like you love them

Didn’t miss my cue

But I forgot to love you

Now the credits

I was the leading star

I took the applause

I took the glory

This was my show

And I glowed

I basked in the lime light

I had it all

I had you

Red carpet

Elbow rubbing

A star

Amongst the stars

I missed my wish

Amid the mist

Of my ignorance

To your significance

I forgot to love you

Poetic Affair

I was his

His personified muse

He was my heart

My love letter

We never slept together

but we made love

I was his

Passion on paper

I left my mark

on his heart

Tattooed

on his left ventricle

He carries my face

Engraved

in his memory

Latenight

Whispers my name

Sweet

like the Hennessy

on his lips

Like the scent of him

Strength

mixed with blunt truths

Kush breeze

I was his

I am his fix

His soul calls out

Bleeds for me

Innocently

evoking

Intoxicating

Passionately

Explicit dreams

Of his ink

dancing with my ABC’s

Love dream

turned love story

Love story

turned

burnt love letters

Morphed love

Now ash embers

Love You Too

Love
Why do you always have to play
Love games?
Pretending like all is okay
But I can’t ever have what I want
Lazy love
Always half-assing
It’s always something
Makes me want to break up with you
If only I could
I’d run the other way
Instead of wanting you to stay
I’d change my address
And my number too
I’d even give you a fake name
To keep me away
Far away from you
Then you’d never find me
Until you catch me off guard
Like you tend to do
When I least expect it
Or maybe I let you find me
Seems like I keep on falling
But always for the wrong type
Foxx knows my pain
So I let it burn
Usher no regrets
Someone always told me it’d be this way
You love someone
but aren’t reciprocated
They’re too busy
loving someone else
While you’re too caught up
Can’t see the one that has you on a pedestal
Losing is inevitable
Trying to play love’s game
Unfair advantages
Of Love’s blind ways

And We Say Goodbye

And we say goodbye for the one hundred and
twentieth time,

Or so it seems

you and me just can’t seem to reconcile our differences.

Every time we make up and break up,

So repetitive

I made it into the chorus of my last song

It seems wrong to know each other for so long

Only to say goodbye so long

But sometimes things just don’t work out the way you want em to

I should know

look what happens everytime between me and you

Your out doing you and I’m here doing me too

It distracting cuz even then I’ve got you on my mind

Where’s the rewind button

I’d take it all back

If I only knew it would make you come Back to me

But your too stubborn

You remind me too much of me

We can’t Ever be wrong

And this is the outcome

You and me not together

when I just want us to build a happy home It’s too late

we crossed that line

All that’s left is to rewind

pause and replay our memories

Lingering thoughts and feelings about you holding me

And all the times we’d sing to random love songs together

The first time we made love to the songs I wrote for you Remember?

-unfinished
