In your pretty smiles I've found comfort. In your ravishing eyes I found happiness. In your softest heart I find peace. In loving you I found perfection. In your purest soul I found myself a refuge. My soul fortresses in your true feelings.
"She's skinned in night portray. Only the light comprehend her. They said she's
beauty, and
power, for the
treasures hidden
underneath her skin, of no measure, she kin with pleasure.
Her mind make
Unlike the south
We are
From the Congos
We all emerged - Beautiful
Our feet stamping the grounds and breath humming
With our tongues
We spoke words that shocked the havens
The devil starts now,
Set loose, bound by its vow,
Heaven will come down, like aliens bow,
We in the low, to safety, they will tow,
Where my mind is walking, on common grounds,
People know me, they hear my sounds,
Taking part in parcels, my eyes see farther,
Asking whit you know, the path gets darker,
For one and all, so the sayings go,
Trembling, timid, twisted
Rebellious, reckless, ruined
Ebbing, erring, ensnared
Amuck, anxious, afraid
Sporadic, stressed, sinful
Ugly, unsure, umbrageous
Restless, ruthless, recalcitrant
As a best friend then brother, now potential life partner
These feelings… These intense, powerful feelings.
As infants grow to become teenagers into adults…
A typical crush grew to become infatuation into love.
Within Grandma's holy sanctum resided an altar
before which I was in awe, would stand tip toe in worship
adoring the lines of her ornate hand held ivory mirror
and silver hair brush; hands not folded in prayer
they say that nothing gold can stay
but what about the other metals seen as precious
in the eyes of man
you are my silver lining
The Dragons, they soaredAbove Mountains, through cloudsEach guarded a hoardClaws sharp, and teeth baredThey’d fight to the deathProtecting what they treasured most
A thing that not many can endure
The pressure
You treasue
Once knocked at my door
Small and brittle
My heart ripped in four
What love was for certain
I wasn't quite sure
Warm feelings
Memories of smiles
And outrageous laughter
With silly wiles
And for some
A happily ever after
Drowning in ecstasy
Waves of joy
Washing over me
Crushing me in bliss
More important than air
Although His absence is not so immediately felt
More valuable than treasure
Although treasure hunters ignore Him
More a friend than my best friend since 4th grade
My eyes flutter open
to a world draped in a haze
a sight so unclear and undefined
that I am left in a daze.
I blink and adjust to the warm light peeking from my windows
In a world of screens and lights,
Life goes on in days and nights;
But in each and every soul is
None other than purest gold!
While the species manifest, just
One of them stands from the rest;
All we own
All we want
We forget
What we got
This stuff
Not worth a penny
It’s all loss
See the reality
You can take my money
Take my stuff
I know you are the type who likes people that knows about you head to toe,
I may not know a lot about you
If you think my love for you is infatuated,
it's not.
I want you in my life
Read between the lines
Behind this words I hide
The truth I keep inside
Others must seek their rainbows for the treasures that they hold,
but darling, you are my rainbow and your love....my pot of gold.
To find something worth standing for,
To stand and and not give in,
Is to find something worth living for.
To find something worth living for,
To live and never from it rest,
Beautiful Princess
There was once a night,
That darkness came to light,
And only beauty was in sight.
A pure beauty was found,
Her looks so profound,
Yet her life turned around,
-What is true?
-you?
-me?
-us?
-Yes!!!
-This isn't perplex!
-you......
-me.......
-we.......
-It looks like we were meant to be!
-and what is true about you?
Shattered beer bottles are what's left of our fight
Since the bumps and bruises rarely last long
I can always feel the tempest coming
But I always forget that you are stong
We are at each other's throats constantly
My words are written
in the book of life.
Whether it be that they
contain joy or strife.
I am what i proclaim
all myself to be.
For the only one to stare back through the mirror
Man,seems like this generation is changing
kids killing parents well this generation is amazing
racism still racing, families break up and now daddy is on vacation
Those were “my girls”, Those were “my niggas”.
I didn’t care about what no one said about me,
Stream of consciousness.
A fill of void and mess.
Generalizing my distress
in a field in which I won't digress.
Yes,
we are all in this world together.
She's got rock star style with that beauty queen flare.
She has my full attention with just the flip of her hair.
She's got a lot of class, I can't even deny.
It is my serenity
My escape when reality is too much to bare.
Freedom among that unexplainable
And you are the guide.
You guided me here,
To this vast wonderland of beauty.
The soft touch. the sweet gaze . What makes me fall and be so enganged ? Every kiss every touch makes my heart beat ever so much ...
The lone days of summer that alters your attention to yourselfSummerThe days that will last for hours and create new memoriesSummerThe season on which you will learn how to say goodbye Summer
In a subway, in a bike, walking or in a car
we go to work
to pay for our habits and love
we go to work, every single day
awake and without sense
we go to work, without a choice
I’m afraid of myself
I’m afraid that I will never succeed
I’m afraid that my parents will be disappointed in my decisions
I’m afraid that the world will not accept me for who I am
Sitting at the house of light in the dark
Looking on the ocean
Finding a bottle of dreams being lost at sea
Look above me and you will find
An unfinished song forgotten over time
The notes are perfect in my heart they will collide
Some sounds are echoes
Some are whispers
Some demand to be heard and possess your mind
Some just flow past you like a chill
Some sounds hurt you from the inside out and make you want to crawl out of your skin
Love of those around you goes deeper than one may know
Love is seeded in the heart and stronger than anything
One love stronger than any you may find is the love of a grandmother
She wipes your tears
You and I,
we are like the tides,
you and I.
Yet,
ups and downs,
we carry on.
Sadly but true,
this love is felt by few.
Sadly,
but true.
Yet,
You’re so mesmerizing; you’re the definition of desire.
My heart throbs at the sight of you.
You’re layered with sensitivity and covered in morality, which defines you.
You were the one who was gonna save my heart
Instead you broke it into a thousand parts
Every time exactly the same
But I thought you were different the first time you said my name
I fell but you didn’t catch me
A huge deception
Held out too far to reach, right in front of us
Even by those we trust
It’s behind all the tears that leak out of our eyes
Our sighs, our cries of desperation
And frustration
A Treasure.
So beautiful. Desired at first site.
Corruptive to the soul.
Corruption of the marvelous.
Or the zealous.
In the old world
full of dust and bones
a traveler short and tired
wandered into my home.
In his bag he carried
books and trinkets that
glistened and sparkled
in my dirty home.
You can see them,
Sittng there staring at the same at the sun,
Growing old together, as if the days won't run
They enjoy each others presence.
One knows what the other is thinking.
When I think of words
I think of numbers, or knights
Or of nights
When the sky is an inky black
the kind your fingers
Almost slip into
Like a sleeve, or oil
Treasure, there is little treasure I keep.
some odds and ends, a trinket or two,
but there is one thing, that out does most.
It's a simple thing, a little thing.
yet it boasts among the most treasured.
Im slamming through these rhymes like it means nothing,
Some say its a crime, yet im not doing the time.
Some say its intense, but I see it as common sence.
Some say it comes from the heart, yet they dont know the start.
If I can't close my eyes and imagine the endless metaphors
there is no need for these eyes of mine
If I can't sway to the flows and effortless quotes that glide from mouths
They say that we should treasure what we have today, that we don’t know what tomorrow will bring.
It could be life or death, good or bad or life changing.
(poems go here) A True Treasure
Hidden you are
Waiting to be found
Covered by the dirt
The rocks
Can’t breath
Cannot even make a sound
