True Love

You love me in spite of myself
You love me even after smelling my morning breath

You love me exactly as I am

When all my make-up is gone
My hair is tasseled and not combed
You love me with all my imperfections and quirks
You love me even when it hurts

You love me…when I don’t love myself
You even love me in bad health

You love me during that time of the month
When I’m bitchy,
moody,
irritated,
fatigued,
bleeding,
crying
and an emotional wreck
You still love me

You love me exactly as I am
You love me when I am weak
You love me when I am vulnerable to the world

You love me regardless of my vanity
You love me….the real me
Through the core of my flesh….my soul and spirituality


You love every strand of my hair
From head to toe
You love my smile
Hell, you even love me, when I fuss and pout

Through all my attitude and silly moods….you love me
You see past all this tuff, rough exterior
You love me inside…the me that the world does not see
In spite of all my imperfections

You love me.
True love

Fabric of Life...Poetry

I wear my poetry Like a panther wears its fur It is the fabric of my existence Paper is the thread The beginning of procreation Its threads like Strands of gold Woven into words Of imagery My pen be the needle That weaves my words Into form The shape of life Like the first breath given to man In the beginning…….. There Was The WORD And the WORD was So As in its infiniteness I AM Eternal For I AM The WORD And the word Be the skin that I wear And I wear it fierce fully Like my flesh That adheres to my tissue and bone We are inseparable Indivisible Unattainable Like the sand that passes Through my hands Beyond comprehension Like words of the Most High Brought creation to all in existence So do words Bring creation to my being Poetry be the fabric That shields my nakedness Poetry be the Fabric That brings me and all that I AM To LIFE

Passion and Desire

When he walks into the room, My heart flourishes The quiet storm begins The roar of my desire Blows boldly through the wind My stomach becomes the most vibrant tornado He’s the hurricane Taking part of my spirit, each time he goes My thoughts are of holding him Feeling his flesh The image in my head that our bodies will mesh I hear the horns blowing, with every footstep he takes The god of my dreams My love and soul mate. Passion and Desire are what captivate me by him I lose all power My body becomes limp Passion for his words, his voice, his thoughts Desire for his body, his hands, his touch Longing to feel more than his spirit I want to study his mind Man all I can think of is this man is soooo fine. His smile is like a sound wave to my soul Every time I see it I have no control My heart smiles too you see For he is all I want I dream of him, think of him, He motivates my charge He is the passion of my desire The one that I admire And he ...
