Loved

 I met you in the garden of Eden

You told me I am someone you've been looking for

The fleck in my eyes mesmerizes you

And my persona has caught your heart.


I never knew expression of affection

How beautiful it could be 

Words choke in my throat

As much as I want to tell thee.

About the warmth of your presence

And healing your words have

Brought into my life.

I have never known the ease of telling someone

The love I hold in my heart.


So I take it to this pen and paper

Pour it out in the ink.

Let my words immortalize

That I met a man

Who showed me how easy it is to love.

And being loved is not hard

I just have to open my heart.

When do you ask for consent

 I was standing at a stop Waiting for my bus to arrive A fine young gentleman approached and asked for my number  I hesitate before I decline He says, '”but, I am a nice guy” As he takes a step closer towering over my frame with all his height. I flinch, afraid, I peer around for help. None are at this stop ‘Cept the bus that comes on. I hold my bag close and run away. It has been a hectic week  I meet up with a friend to catch up We have a drink or two in us As we move to cook a joined meal His hands move to the rhythm of beats Onto the low of my back He pulls me closer  I brake with both my palms “ But I am a nice guy, you should give me a chance” He says, as he continues to pull me in closer  I push hard and lock myself in the room. Was coming back from a celebration the other night with a friend We must have had some drinks As one hand on wheel, his other found mine I push away, I flinch  “But I am a nice guy”  He says, as his hand continues to gra...

Paradise

          **All the characters and events in this story are completely fictional** The bizarre set of events that started happening as soon as I landed in the magic island of Hawaii still sends my brain reeling into a perplexed contusion. I planned a trip to surf the beaches of Hawaii, on island of Oahu, for my birthday. The trip started with my friends riling me up to fetch that fairy tale romance I dream of. Don't tell them that I stuffed my luggage with 3 books, and I plan to do some intense reading.   I was waiting by baggage carousel after my flight landed to collect my suitcase. I see this tall gentleman (or should I call him an adult boy since he is wearing a gray sweatshirt, blue jeans, and white sneakers), picking up a red 24" suitcase that weirdly resembled mine. His suitcase had a captain marvel sticker on it just like my suitcase. IT WAS MY SUITCASE! I ran around the perimeter of carousel as this gentleman tries to casually walk away with m...

Anyone

 To the guy who said he would be with anyone but with me, I have carried the weight of those words in my heart, The pain of my spirit crushed, for very long, I trusted the whimsy parts of my being in your hands, And then got pushed into the depths of Tartarus. My soul was broken and my heart was crushed. I thank you today, For without you, I wouldn't have broken apart into the smallest of bits. For without it, atoms of my soul wouldn't have come together, This time, to create a perfect being of myself. This time, I put myself together the right way. I thank you today for the love you showered when we were together, And for the hell my soul has endured, Because today, I am stronger than ever I have been.  I release you from my energy today. It's been a long time coming, I put you to rest.
