The marks on her pen
The wood splinters on her headboard
The stained and bent feathers of her pillow
The cheap stimulants in her drawer
All masked by your ignorance and naivety
Her stilted smiles and loose words.
So don't say that you 'know her'
- I'll hurt you if you do -
And don't say you love her
- We'll **** you if you try.
You don't 'know her'
Or 'love her';
For God's sake you can't even see her.

I see you in the sky
Like jellyfish see
The ocean's shining dew.

make me invisible

make me ten times greater than I am

make me ten times smaller than I ought to be

diving in the deep end when you never learned to swim

this is not the way to learn to see.

I want to trust myself and my intuition
I want to trust in my own greater visions

the abstract ideas that fall from me and feelings with unknown faces make it hard to even see.

I love when we walk to the park to get fresh air.
The sight of seeing multiple colors in the sky, during this sunset, makes your skin bright up.
We lay in the grass under a tree on your favorite blanket
Watching the sun sleep as the mood awaken.
As we enjoy each other’s company
You ask one simple question:
“what do you see in me?”
In that moment, if you stared into her eyes like I did, you can see through the window to her soul.
A Queen with benefits.
Her mind has creativity as she layout a blueprint of beauty.
A Mother who can carry all 4 of my children.
(Xavier jr., my first, maya is second, xiomara is next, & Dwayne my last)
Search deeper & the heart is made of gold
Protected under the laws of God himself.
Smiles of grace
Confidence through bravery
Never afraid of the inevitable.
Yet, she’s all I ever wanted.
Give me all of you in exchange for me because I want you around.

So what did I see in her?
Well.... I told her,
“My life”

Nightfall covers the world as we’re sitting together.
I feel your warm hand touch mines, smiling at me.
So I smile back, leaning closer towards you.
And for the first time-I close my eyes & begin to taste your pure natural flavor.
This simple kiss is a sentimental connection, sharing this endless moment.
Feeling the sensation of your lips across mine causes my nerves to spark.
Chasing down this liquid lighting, activating each other’s tastebuds-one by one.
Heavy breathing, heart racing
Inhale-Exhale...
Only to reopen our eyes, gaze at your face, & embrace this passionate moment.

You flew through me as I feel you coast on my skin
Letting the hairs on my arm stand as you send excitement through my body.
We touch
One body to another
Lips introduced
A tasteful kiss
Causing an immense impact
Feeling the connection
Collecting samples
Of one’s directions
Nerves activated
Excitement giving me goosebumps

Lay your head on my chest & rest.
In one ear
Hear the waves of my heart beating faster for you.
In the other ear
Listen to the elements of sound all around us singing.
Crickets are chirping
R&B music is bumping
All of this energy flows through a melody,
As our definitive love grows together through faith & clarity.
