I've been documenting my soul for a long time now. It's a passion that tickles with fire until I let it out. Born in DC, now experiencing a new life in New York/ Long Island, can't wait to see what life has orchestrated for me. Just looking for another way to blow my trumpet loud for all to hear the music to their ears. I hope one of my poems can reach you on a whole 'nother level. / / © Raymond F Bell.

the feel of your warm hands exploring my very being like Columbus with a plan the knowledge that you care enough to ask me about my day and will register the answer I don't think I need much but I need it often because your comfort is my life force tell me it's gonna be okay even though we both know it's a lie but it gets me to my next night when you're here my thoughts are clear and again I have 20-20 sight we don't have to be an item we don't have to be lovers and no one wants a divorce I just need you around to turn my frown upside down an explosion of emotion like a dancer can you just stay the night so that everything will be alright we both want a devoted fan but at the end of the day, i just want to be held

I just want to be held
If a prisoner was given money to customize her cell to her liking, would that prisoner ever want to leave? I'm sure the answer would be striking For when people get comfortable in a place change is the furthest from their mind But when their number is close to being called only deliverance do they want to find Why wait to find the way out, the plan to escape these golden bars? Don't get comfortable! This is not vacation! and No, we cannot escape to Mars. We must call the One who can pay our bail. To One, how can we repay? By changing our life and working for our bailer And thanking for the gift of a new day Our souls were bought with God's blood So no other should we commit. Seek the Lord and follow His laws It's the least we could do, you must admit.

Golden Bars
Physically I’m here But mentally I’m away I’m out on vacation With my Lord today Praising Him for my blessings Thinking about His forgiving soul Doing good things in His name And learning of my God-given role It’s an all-expense-paid trip But am I worth the expense? I am but a mere sinner That asks for my hands to be rinsed My faith gives Him the credit My baptism makes me His son And if I stay on the right path I will arrive at His mansion when life is done So now you know where I am You should come; it’s not hard to find Or leave me a message and I’ll get back to you If I return to my worldly mind

Leave Me A Message
The waters have parted An unwished dream comes to fruition Will I stay dry If I stand in the partition Should I leave my things behind And risk my old life for a new Can I safely stand in between Or will the walls conjoin and renew Leaving me tossing and drowning in the middle Wishing I had stayed back on the shore Where my life was stable, standing on flat land Always wishing for more I just see a life on the other side of the sea Feeling like that side is better and fit for me But Moses isn’t here to assist me through What would you do?

Red Sea of Love
I’m in a great mood Nobody can bring me down I get out the shower And put a towel around I go down the hall No one did I see And when I close the door There you are right behind me You push me on my bed And rip off my towel You match my outfit And all I can say is Wow Then I saw something shiny … You handcuffed me to the rail You wanted to guarantee That your plan wouldn’t fail You did some dance As if to celebrate your victory But then I started to rise And understood this was some witchery You noticed I was strong And started working my muscle If she was getting paid I would have sworn it was her hustle We both seemed to enjoy What you came to do And when your powers got to a ****** I swore a volcano just blew Then your powers started to fade And you vanished in thin air The handcuffs vanished too And I wonder if you were ever there Now you’ve had your way And again I’m ***** So I’ve gotta go take another shower And now it’s 11:30

Too Early
Hoping for forever Wishing for the best Wanting to tie the knot And together build our nest But we’re gonna Chris Brown crawl to love So that we know that it’s right I can’t even see our end I can’t even picture one fight Perfect in each other’s eyes And that’s when we get humble But let’s put our worries aside And just get ready to rumble Your hand in mine My heart in yours The L word is what This poem refers I hope these poems and letters Make your memory box complete So I would be the last suitor That you’ll ever have to meet.

Hoping For Forever
Electric guitars and drum solos Are filling my night’s sound A battle of the bands with my mind Hoping my thoughts to drown A pounding headache is a lot easier Than waking up from some fear Fear of intrusion, fear of bad decisions Fear of losing someone dear Soon my bed seems unsoft, sleep seems like work But I just want time to fly So I look to music to rock me to sleep And drown out the nightmare of goodbye

Rock Me To Sleep
I see a mirror Of Love, A promise fulfilled By the power above I see a mature woman Who’s endless in worth Who has dreams and goals And a great purpose on Earth I see a soul That’ll hold me close Keep me happy And love me the most When I look into your eyes My search is complete No more looking for love No more girls to meet When I look into your heart I feel God’s grace and blessing My prayers were answered And there’s no more guessing When I see you smile Not a worry do I feel Stress falls to the ground And my anger tends to peel When I see you happy It feeds my spirit I’d even ask if you liked my body Just to even hear it When I see your life I see our great futures combined Nothing but success, love, and peace Fill my dreams and mind When I see into your mind I see your want to be great And you’re off to a good start Many girls are gonna hate When I see into your love It makes me write it down Sing it to a crowd Or preach it on a mound And when you read this Many emotions do you feel But what I love the most No worry about them being concealed

When I Look Into Your Eyes
… Isn’t that a crazy story? Just crazy – me and my friend. Hello, hello? Babe, are you there? Oh no! She’s fallen asleep again. Aw, my cute babe is tired And she stayed up just for me. Her eyes got too heavy tonight Then I guess I’ll just let her be. I hope I’m in her dreams at night. I hope she’s somewhere great. “Hey Sweetie, I’m sorry I fell asleep.” “Oh no, It’s getting late.” I’ll talk to you later so you can get your sleep. You need your energy so turn out the light. I love you, Babe. Good night, Sweet dreams. And I’ll see you in mines tonight.
