Remember Our Short Visits?

*********************************

Time paused for the longest hour, the second my eyes kissed your sight
I let go of fear and we continued to stare passed our pupils…
Deep into the roots of my palm I found a destination to humble myself into loving again…
With my laughter I stopped you from falling with nothing but a long breath, I've been told it's through the wonders of my lord, now I understand why they say I'm blessed.
We ushered our pride into unbounded silence as daydreams came to take us to our planets…they separated fitting hearts but our eyes were windows in seeing each other …just like the first second we held a gaze.
While swimming in a lake of abandoned hearts I sank to the bottom to only pick up lines of poetry so I could cleanse in them, I hold thoughts of when I may write love into my bed sheets and then I froze…
As we climb back into earth your seeking touch perfects my flaws now I'm radiant with beauty…finally worthy of the flattering praise.
As I glance at time my heart aches as this is a short visit before we return home…to our unlike planets…to our different forms.
I still have flashbacks of when I found comfort in tree backs surrounded in heavy puddles of rain…subhanallah
I fell silent into words that made breathing wonderful, loving the only thing I knew…
And here we are once again on our short visit and I have no need to reach for my pen.
Sunday came… we correlated in thunder waves as you tasted the fresh strawberries off my lips…remember?
…I'll never forget
Gambled seats of high status just so we could pause a moment to walk alongside each other without words said…unlived moments by any other…
Instrumented seashells clutter as you walk through them to reach yesterday
… In mirrors harmonized by the piano I stay licensed to wait till you stand on the steps of today, with me...
As I bathed I sipped in juices of bitter times and hints of smiles…obviously we had just began on the street of painted love…at the end of the road laid a portrait of us ....
A serenade dedicated in the balance of unlike planets with different forms heading home after a short visit.

My Love Note

Every sector of her structure was shaped without apology
Ya Allah you ravelled perfection
Her breath left many breathless including me
Sweetest voice to be found so far apart from the heavens
She was unexplainable
She still is…
Her love is gravitational
Beautiful in ever starlight flaw
Her sour corners still leave eternity wanting her inside its claws
I watched her conceive souls
Leaving them endless and aching for more…
I'm aching…
I hope you ache for her once in this lifetime too
In her 5 feet length she's powerful,
Singular
And I prayed she'd remain mine a little longer
Praise thee above that I swelled her belly and gave her a glorious roar
Yes her first born
With the heart as deep as mountains and moist like the crystal rain she adores
I'm in love with her like cuddles and smooches
Missing that sneering bond
We use to be beginners in this journey
Now pros
That brings more than smiles to my soul
If I could cut it open just so you'd hear its giggles, i woud've bleed 18 years ago...
But I'll leave you with this note although it's truly never-ending
Your structure was shaped without apology
Beautiful in every starlight flaw
You're my moments
And I your first born
***********************************************
Yours Truly
