DIGNITY

Mr Amazing

Today you spoke to me in a voice I never heard come from your lips…

After that I cried.

What was I supposed to do when you told me not to be myself?

Next time tell me you don’t want me and I swear I will stay.

I will stay because in a field full of daisies you were the only rose.

And when I picked you I hadn’t seen anything so amazing in my life, you were Red.

But not just any red, but the red color you would see while standing in the brightest room with your eyes shut.

And when I would open them all that I would feel was God.

So I plucked the rose peddles and tore them apart.

Then told God I didn’t want it.

What in my dreams told me that my life could change for the worst?

I knew you were coming, but I’m not ready.

You are perfection in every way the man was supposed to be made.

You take your time each day to tell me tha...

HE IS NOT A KING

He takes his time and preys on young women like you
Women who have past life issues that were never solved
Women with a family that never prayed together for strength
With fathers who have other families and made siblings she has never met
And black mothers who worked hard day and night to feed their children
So there was no time for you
Young woman, you have always known you were beautiful
So when he first saw your shape and makeup that enhanced the physical attraction
You knew he would approach…

She takes her time to get to know him
The young man she now cares about after only 3 weeks’ worth of text messages everyday.. Those good morning messages he sent when he would awake
The young man who built his life around living and never growing
With a family he would kill for
A woman he loves and respects… but is the only woman he respects, his mother And a father who he no l...

SAY YES

Didn’t meet him when I was supposed to.
Didn’t want to show my interest to soon.
My friend said you should see him.
Buff and brown guy,
Nice height, and did I mention his smile
Swear you can see it from a half mile. So bright it made me feel so light.
On my feet.
Made my knees fall weak.
Made my soul take flight.
And his touch
Was just right, just right, but this is not love.
Since that day we met, every night before i close my eyes i thought abbout you holding me.
Cant forget that night we danced with the stars and I went to Jupiter and you went to mars.
So close we were far apart.
But the sun ignited a flame.
While stems spread like they were cut with a blade my blood flowed through my veins quick like a stream.
Nothing stopped me.
Not even that look in your eyes that surprised look in your eyes
This continued naturally.
Nothing bu...

DIGNITY

DIGNITY

Scales weight and we lay on the separate end of the beam. meet my needs while I stare blankly at the walls playfully tugging with my morals… saying why do you even think about his his …. His needs, I don’t. I bear not to agree with my mind thus far although we never face I know what I want.  what I need is for him too dig into my soul and take what I carry. Erase my worries and leave the truth bandaged. And there it lies by the bed right next to affection love and protection. Meet my needs then return my dignity….
