Transference of energy
Civilized from synergy
Resisting descendancy
Into mass lunacy
Ballance is dependency
On each other equally
Step inside to see clearly
Mind's eye ascendency...

All I really am sure of about love is that love loves not...

If I go a day without thinking of you
my nights are consumed with visions of you

those eyes that provoke fantasy,
your soul's windows burn right through me.

The shape of your face,
curve of your smile...

the way you put your hair in that whimsical style...

I left too soon.

I knew it then.

I had to prove to myself you were right,
with the hopes you were wrong.

This experiment has gone  too long.

Keeping a distance cause I want to be closer,

Let me grow on you
show you a thing or two
Maybe you can show me something new.

Open enough to let you be my teacher
you'll have my full attention
fascinating creature.

Each day should be different as I look at you with a new eye.

Be a stranger to me
That I can always be mezmerized

be my constant new discovery while my mind flies

on flights of fancy

Mentally painting a new fantasy
of you smiling that smile when you look at me...

Story of a brother always love bitten
Perpetually smitten
Friend zone trippin
Keeps his head up and never caught slippin
Connection so strong he had to pull away
Timing too wrong. Today is not the day.
Table for two with one place setting
Smiling with envy
At couples love letting
World's cold
80 degrees hot
Buying kids icees from the truck down the block
Just to see joy by some kind of means
Instead of reading sisters declarations from blaring memes
Social media killed the dating scene
People hurt themselves
******* on some theme
Makes a man scream
Silent on his deen
Silent screaming makes the shakes
Artificial stimulation intervenes
Hit the brakes
Here come the snakes
Swivel hips and painted face
Band aid love
Won't even distract
No alchemy kit could bring
that chemistry back

Feelin' those **** curves
Enjoying her heft against me,
Rubbin' my hands along her neck
Pullin' strangs manipulating every utterance
Warm tones when I make her moan
Brightness defying her bottom
Keeping that **** tight when I pop!  Pop! Pop it!
Slappin' n slammin' in the pocket
She won't fight
In fact it's what she likes
It's what I love about her
I share in her delight
We can go on for hours on into the night
Funkin up the place
The **** that we be doin' be scrunchin' up my face
We catch a groove in our own space
Yeah, it gets ******* when I'm playing my bass...

Irony and Karma,
Sadistic twins of fate
All up in your face
After all the moves you had to make

Just when victory looms
POP!
Lit cigarette to your balloon...

Twin bullies slap boxin at the end of the tunnel
Play fightin in the light at the tip of the funnel
Waiting for you as you spiral down about to be pummeled

Irony dodgin blows
But you keep swinging
Karma half Laughin
Half singing
"MERRY GO ROUN' N ROUN'..."
Like a demented AL B Sure

You tryina even the score
Not enough energy in store

"I need a second wind" you implore
Blood sweat and tears bubble in your core
Gittin' back on your feet is a struggle- a chore

"I've been on this Street before " you hear yourself murmur
Feeling weak and sore
On your hands and knees
Body bruised, nerves raw

Spit out teeth, a chunk of skin from your lip
Tryina see but your eyes are slits

Call Irony a punk
Karma a btch
They got this round
But you know this ain't it
They can't make you give up
Don't back down
Not a bit
This is life
Ha ha
I love this sht

Ever humble
***** on my square
Keeping perspective
Always aware
Time on a tear
Drag racing
Dragging along
Light pacing
Centrifugal stillness
Stuck in the realness
And shock of it all
Orbit of this ball
The gravity
The gravity
It's grabbin me
So glad to be
Grounded by faint calls of trajectory
There's a plan but there's no directory
Horizon the point at the edge of the fall
The vastness and range
Still kinda strange
It's what's so humbling
Fall back
Re arrange...
