Your Fantasy

See the curve in her lower back,
The way those heels hug her feet,
The sway of her hourglass waist
You see her,
You glance
Across the room, across the way,
on the street

 In your mind, on your thought

 Her long silky legs
You could have looked closer

 The words from her caramel lips,
A cry for help
But her thighs,
Exactly how you imagined them
Her chest wide open
Her breasts
Not her decree of desperation

 So you came over
You said hi
She said yes
She is not easy
She is hurt
Though a lot of fun
 On her back
On some bed, in some house

She keeps coming,
Just a little kiss but
She keeps calling,
Just a tender touch then
She keeps stalking
Just one night
Call her baby
Now her turn
with your baby
Only fantasy
Not abortion
A lifetime in sorrow
Always ready to die
Her cry for help

Now your fantasy
Now your turn
try again
look closer
A vicious cycle
A victim of the victimized

My First Love

Like my shadow in the night time,
He is with me
everywhere I go,
He shines on me,
He is my own, my moon, now I can see
so I softly embrace Him

gently...

He is with me everywhere I am...
He goes eagerly
When I run from my imperfections
He stays,
He's here
uprooting the foundations,
the seeds planted long ago
to keep me insane

Eventhough, I didn't want Him there,
when I'd rather laugh in my darkness,
He beams for me relent-
lessly

intercedes for me, unflichingly
He is with me, judiciously

religiously

He is for me,
see Him through me

He never leaves...

Art: Watching Over Me by Frank Spivey

Peace of Mind

Deep darkness;
A prison of my own making;
I thought I could breathe

I was blind and could not see…my enemies
Didn’t have to stab me in the back;
I gave them the knife

I allowed their opinions…they’ve dominated my will;
I thought I was safe;
I thought I could breathe…
