I shiver at your touch
Adrift in a sea
Of distant memory.
It sounds like too much
But I cannot believe
How swiftly I retreat
Like a turtle into its shell
I’m scared of what will become
Of the heart’s evolution
As we revolve around the sun.
As we float on
This shabby raft of destiny
I know how fine we’ll be.
Four bobbing souls of gold
Intertwined at the seams
We’ll find security
Like a turtle into its shell
Aware of what will become
Of the heart’s evolution
As we revolve around the sun.
I want to
Be comforted
And consoled
But for some reason
You’re so cold.
As I age
And see my light fade
I look to you
But you’re so cold.
When The timing’s right
To heat up the night
I must ask
But you’re so cold.
What I want
What I need
Inflict more pain
After the deed
I can’t align
With your vibes
And sadness grows
Evermore each day.
The rift began
So slowly
But soon strikes
In ways swift.
I hate asking
So emasculating
To beg, plead, and coerce but
be turned away.
I feel numb
To your touch
Because you’re so cold
But it hurts more every time.
The pitter patter of little feet
Searching to and fro
For something yummy to eat
When they are gone
How I miss them so
Without them
I wouldn’t know where to go.
Love overflows, so gold, like a rolling ray of sunshine. so divine kissing dew who knew how weak but so strong love can be, righting wrongs, composing songs, it’s magical. This babe so sweet like a marshmallow treat, I’m in love. Congrats and her I can’t wait to meet!
I’ll tell you about one of the wildest PG-rating days I’ve ever seen. I used to carry in the projects in Richmond, Virginia, 23223. It was a light day so I was out there early. At 08:45 am, I was into my first relay when I first heard coming my way Detroit muscle revving followed by distant sirens, thinking ‘Oh, boy. This oughta be good.’ I then saw two cop cars chasing a white Charger, and they were flying! I kept going and caught up with Mrs. Williams, who had been living there for five decades, about an hour later. She told me, “Them boys gonna hear it from me for waking me up. A girl needs her beauty sleep.” She had me cracking up.
I am an addict
But
Aren’t we all
From the drinks
to the attention
We’re all bound to fall
Life is what life brings
With flowers so sweet
And days so searing
We’ll do all we can
To achieve chemicals
So the heart sings
I struggle with drink
And chewy plant
I once thought,
‘I’ll sub drink with herb,’
But found myself
In a ménage a trois
So seductive
So alluring
I can stop
Said every addict
Until it was too late
But knowledge glows
Only from the throes
Of pain and life aligned
So
Here we are
Just another day
In my life
When I think
There’s gotta be another way
I’ll quit
The downers and uppers
The alcohol and the caffeine
Everything that brings joy
And everything in between
To build a stronger life
One with wisdom
Acquired from strife
To be a better model
For J and P.
Tomorrow begins day one.
No caffeine, no booze, no herb
Wish me luck
