We Are

I am love unconditional
You are love come true
I am a demanding love
You are love's 2nd chance
I am love breathing
You are love on fire
I am love unwavering
You are love set free
I am love pursued
You are a protective love
We are one to the other
Shared love run amuck
Sacrificed love born again
In two heartbeats...now one

U Ain't Shit

Poof!

You’re blinded by this storm of a woman

An elegant yet soul engulfing black queen

You never imagined a piece of fruit as sweet

My nectar dripping from your mouth agape

All consuming is my fire in your man’s blood

I walk with a confidence many a man have seen

But a high commodity few put their hands on

Present in a time when chivalry has all but died

My presence whispers to a spirit you hadn't met

Confused is your selfish flesh but inside you see

Deep down a real man in you is buried deep

All you needed was a strong lady like me

At your feet I bear life as my gift to you

Eyes closed you miss the birth of my truth

On my back I explode from the inside out

Yet His power is poured in me as I kneel

In your violent night I am never worried

Because in my brilliant day I conquer all

When it’s all said and done I’m still a lady

But don’t fuck with me!

I’m still laughing!

We both know you lied when you said,

“Onta, U ain’t shit!”

In The Mirror

This moment finds me in quiet reflection and gratitude for the blessings and years I've already lived. It is in this space I have no idea what lies in store nevertheless my pulse is strong. My heart still beats for the dreams I had as a little girl even if some of them were distorted as a young woman. So today when I could stand and shout I choose to sit, legs crossed, steady in my resolve. From those dreams long ago a specific set of goals are firmly planted in faith. When I could do handstands to get one's attention I choose to sit, hands in my lap, and gently nudge the spirit of the one who's still searching for me. I am imperfectly perfect and now in my 40th year I realize that is perfectly OK with me.  

Warmest Regards,
In Walks A Lady
