Exuviate.

I shed skin A million snakes A trillion aches Withered away Face to face Demons within A million sins Traces on my silky flesh This lace fits so well These hips so swell Seductive hiss Plumped lips Secrets I’ll never spill The lesson The lesson On repeat Remind me Rewind it Better yet Fast forward…

The writings on my skin.

Lost in thought It crossed my mind What if… Just what if… my body could talk to me What would the cells of my flesh reveal to me These tender breast would they be screaming…STIMULATION! STIMULATION! Pressed against skin Body party She’d let the sensual tension be known It’s been sometime I had her fasting…

Candid

Jaded a time or two I admit I was faded Intoxicated by lust From dawn to dusk Because being loved, was never a must I pushed, I shoved Lauryn said “it could all be so simple” But it left me feeling crippled I dwindled upon a woman She made me a promise It was all…

Solar plexus

I keep asking for inspiration The night keeps whispering I keep hearing your name I keep seeing your face You’re so overrated This is so lame When it was all said and done I’m glad you slept on me That I never shared hugs That you never got the best of me Hell they were…

Her

They say her presence is overwhelming That her energy takes up too much space in the room Her heart is on fire Everyone she loves burns down to their core She is not for the weak She rides the wave like a G Ask what’s his name… I can feed your urges Splurge on your…

Reflections.

I remember your words You said there was a “missing link between us” A link that went missing suddenly Two years down the drain Dressed in your disguise You said goodbye All I could do was cry I used to picture you with her As your lies were revealed I wanted to be in her…

The Catch.

A crowded room A drink or two Around here they call us regulars We’re dancing close We’re in amazement The room is spinning The people are a blur Their eyes all on us Tunnel vision All I see is you Who is this man? Where did he come from? He just turned all my failures…

Lost and found

They say to get over someone, to get under someone I admit the thought crossed my mind Turns out self destruction is no longer my thing I can’t find that girl That girl you used to know I look in the mirror I look at old photos I hear an old song She left me…
