I can no longer hide what my mind has accepted as the truth
And although I hope this doesn’t come between me and you
This is straight honesty without the burden of proof
I’ve been cheating and not on but rather with you
The love affair between you and I
Is a backhand to my main stand
And I hope this doesn’t hurt your feelings
But there is nothing that can truly satisfy me like my boo can
My boo wakes me up at 3 in the morning
Roll me over with tongue kisses to my mind
French kiss my intellect and then take small nips
On my fingertips
Keeps me up all night and way into the morning
Have me yearning to connect again
From daybreak to the weekend
The truth is, it will never end
Because I have been in love with poetry since I knew what love was
And she is my forever
My first true love
Accepting my thoughts and desires and turning them into reality
She doesn’t judge me
Love me unconditionally
Through the months that I turn my back on her
Forgiving the lovers I take in between
Poetry is always there waiting on me
And if loving her wrong then just call me a lesbian
Because she does for me what no man can
Appreciates all that I am and reminds me daily of what I’m worth
She provides a safe place when it hurts
A blank canvas to expose my vulnerabilities
The secrets I divulge stay between her and me
And poetry takes me places
Reminds me that it’s not about the destination
But the journey in-between
Not a race to the finish line but a slow stroll to victory
Poetry never rushes me to come
Knows that by stimulating my mind, it will happen eventually
That to get the job done efficiently you have to do it right the first time
Instead of trying to knock my back out
Poetry blows my mind
Men should be jealous
Because she never gags
And she takes it in all at one time
Then allows it to secrete into paragraphs one syllable at a time
She never lets me down
And if I could add a price tag to the satisfaction writing poetry provides it would read
199 9 9 9 9
I’ve become an addict and she is my daily habit
And I would pass her around but I can’t share this good shit
So if you don’t mind having your mind blown from time to time
Pick up a pen and paper and make love to poetry
