You bring out the best in me.
Triggering feelings and emotions that expose hidden attributes within thee.
Inexplicably the component of natures identity that motivates me.
The energy from you that radiates I can't escape.
I wander in your presence my blood curdles when I see your face.
Your aura activates an elegant but primal reality validating my duality.
Fascinating intervals of my innocence becoming a casualty.
Our time together is priceless I could never spend you lavishly.
Under your influence I'm misunderstood but i'm too saad to be sad -I could never be mad at me.
When your around I move happily!
I feel you internally.
To you I respond unanimously capturing every moment together with you collecting your deposits and storing them away into my life's closet.
Until the next time we meet again I capture mental images of you my very very very distant friend.

Run, run, run, spiritually, psychologically, and literally.
Run as fast as you can.
But I still see you.
I still feel the pain that you left me with.
Your body heat I can still feel you.
Your stench I can still smell you.
Can't wait for the moment that I am able to exorcise this demon you  left me with.
Never thought I'd breathe again as you tried to execute life from a body that God's spirit was still with.
Lying dormant as you stood over me defenseless like a rabbit under a ravenous wolf.
Set to devour and consume me licking your fangs flawlessly  benefiting from a successful ambush.
Now you run, run, run but you can't  outrun divine justice better known as karma.
Your out of sight but I  still see your treachery barreling down on me in an attempt to exalt yourself through an act of dishonor.
Repetitiously the scenario plays and it's like I die everyday and try to scream, "run!" as I look on at the impending tragedy but it's always too late.
God protected me and I  survived what was supposed to be my demise.
Your untouchable and out of my reach but I feel you even to this day.
As you run, run, run, your destiny now drags what survived of my former self along anyway.
You can run, run, run but I don't think you'll ever be able to get away.

My first time with you had me petrified.
Long deep pulls of the best of the best grade.
Floating through the clouds on cloud 9.
Wasn’t as cool as it may seem.
I was fried.
Paranoid and scared promising to never do it again.
But I lied.
Took me three or so more songs dancing with you to catch your rhythm.
Before long I was in step, step by step with your isms.
Back then it was cigars smoking with you.
Spiffily splitting the spliffs and rolling up on you.
In first hour room spinning like a helicopter.
Then me throwing up from you.
But I still ran back and each time to your ways I got wiser.
Up until that time when me and my frienemy were no longer cooler.
Cutthroat, turned you against me.
Poisoned you with manure.
With the intentions of me consuming you and wasting me like trash in the sewer.
Damaged caught off balance the toxins my system couldn’t manage.
With the grace of GOD I slowly bounced back from a disasterous experience with a different side of you.
Several months l stayed on hiatus but eventually began to moonlight with you.
Same feel same touch same auroma as before..
But not quite the same as the Mary Jane I’d known before.
