Maybe this is not our time

 


Maybe this is not our time.

We might pass through this life without enjoying our love.

We are not limited by our flesh but our imaginations.

So, we are not one, we are separate two passing each other through life's entanglements.


But the tugging of my soul is not a dream.

It is our sad reality.


Maybe, just maybe this is not our time.

Fodder of my fantasies

You are the fodder of my fantasies.
Dancing amongst clouds and rainbows
Because your reality is stormy and grey hiding beneath the shadows

A thought and a reality


A shadow, an island, a lost memory floating in the wind 
I jump and play in front of you and hope you can see me.
But you look past me at her vision. 
She turns her head to ignore your pangs of desire.
So I sit clinging on to your shirttail, as you sit by her feet gazing up at her and she stares off in the distance, looking nowhere.

When destinies collide


Let me lower my voice so no one but you can hear.
Right now, it seems impossible and you can't see how you can feel this.
You have determined to hold strong and not let go.
I respect that.
But guess what
If the tides change
If fates come into focus
 When destinies collide
Then 
You will look up one day and what you thought was impossible will be possible.
The forest you used to pass every day with the dying trees will have a young green sprout pushing out of the earth and then and only then you will see it is possible.
So
I will wait for that conversation
For your epiphany, when all the lights turn on
Don't worry, I have an eternity of patience

Your...


Your Mama never
Your Ride or Die whenever
Your sister of course
Your Basic Bitch by force
Your friend definitely always
Your wife to the grave
Your Big, Blonde, Buxom Bimbo NOPE
Your Confidente I hope
Your Halal God willing
Your Love from the beginning 
And when this body returns to dust.
My soul will hold the memory of us eternally.

All


With all your beauty and imperfection
With all your hope and intention
With all your care and attention 
With all your sweetness and affection
I embrace all that is you, completely.

Chokin'


Aww, girl, you woke up chokin'
Trying to drink somebody else's spit.
