I want to lay in the corners your smile
And sleep between your laughter of eternity.

The past is like an unwelcome guest
That sleeps on your couch and eats all your food.
You can’t get rid of her because you’re the one
that keeps inviting her.

Decorate your sadness with flowers
And make your wellbeing a beautiful garden.
Don't be afraid to blossom in his comfort.

His hair beams dark gold glitter
like it memorizes sunshines.
No wonder why it always feels like summer
when my fingers surf between them.

I searched for you in the alley of conversations.
In the backyard of a smile.
Between the walls of simplicity.
I searched for you in the corners of affection.
In the garden of butterflies.
In the unsafety of my dreams.
I searched for supernatural, divine encounters.
For beating hearts and shaky voices
For mindblowing realities.
I searched for God in a man.
Instead I found sincerity
I found differences
I found fear and jealousy
I found mistakes
I found acceptance
I found human.

For what it's worth i loved you.
Even when my eyes were too afraid to meet yours.
I just wanted to escape the breathlessness of being near you.
I was waiting for the rain to pass over our circumstances.
My heart was like a never ending earthquake.
The beautiful landscape of your mind was never the reason.
For what it's worth i really loved you.

i'm not a slave of compliments.
I won't overdose on injections of racism.
The only addiction i have it of the melanin in my skin.
My heritage is not a sin.
My womanhood has always been the evidence of excellence.
My faith is not a bad habit I need rehabilitation from.
If discrimination was a drug i would be high every day

If you ask me how my mind works,
I would have no words to define
No poems that can describe
You would have to step inside
My mind is a maze.
Guided by maps of conversations
Lost between walls of questionmarks
If you ask me how my mind works,
I would invite you in.
But there's no guarantee you'll find your way out.
Bon voyage.

I am black coffee with curves of sugar.
I am a spoon of chocolate
I am soul food
I am a wombed man
The rib of an african king
The golden crown of the cosmos.
I am full moon or a sunset
I am light,
I am a spark,
a flame,
a bonfire,
I am fire works.
I’ll leave traces of smoke in your nostrils.,
Just so you’ll recognize my presence when you’re seeking me.
I’ll shelter myself between your veins just to make your heart beat a little faster.
I am the revolution of love.
I am a silenced desire.

You are the oppurtunities you need.
You are the miracles you seek.
You are the stars you're trying to reach.
You are the proclamations you speak.
You are the treassure you're trying to find.
You are the mountains to climb.
You are whatever you decide.
Because God resides in you
