My Favorite Poem......written by ME!!!

Writing to me is so therapeutic. I know that if I have something to say, I can let it flow and will feel refreshed and relived afterward. The words that I are write are a window to my soul, and you are able to tell a lot of what I am feeling through my poetry and my journaling.

Sooo, because I have not written any new pieces that are ready for revealing, I thought I would post one of my favorite pieces. This is one I usually perform at local open mics, and I have to say that I have terrible stage fright, and I only do open mics from time to time so that I can begin to conquer my fear, and share my works with others in different mediums.

The follow piece is written about a Love so true, I struggled to put it down on paper. This piece is ever evolving....I am always editing it, always looking to have it reflect what else I have discovered about its true meaning.


I Feel Love

He suspends my mind
into a place and time
that I have never felt before.
 He makes love to my mind
and makes my body do things
that it has never experienced felt before.

Now I’m not talking about
the traditional feelings that one might think,
I’m talking about the way in which
he makes my knees weak.
He is so right for my spirit
my heart and my soul,
I know I am in love because
he touches me in so many
different places at the same time.

I ‘m not talking about physically,
I mean my heart
my soul and
my entire being.
He makes me feel so beautiful
and so needed that I am compelled
to make sure he has all he needs
even though he doesn’t need me to.

And because this man is so true,
he has many women checking for him
but none of them have what it takes
to capture his attention.

I have to admit
that he grounds my emotional flights,
and keeps me level,
he keeps me wanting more and more
even when we are not together.
I look at him and see a reflection of me,
I close my eyes and he is
the only one I see in my dreams.
And even though he is not yet mine,
I know that in time he will come
to see me as his queen.

I can feel the energy
that he sends my way when he looks at me
and I know that he will forever love me.
I can tell by his eyes
that that even though sometimes
he may get mad at me,
he is drawn to me,
and his heart will never leave me.

Other women try to
capture him physically,
but I have the best you see….
I have this man mentally.
I know you may ask
how can you wait patiently,
How can you see clearly 
the image of the man you want to see.

It’s because I’m waiting
for the one who is sent to me, 
the one meant for me and
the one who can satisfy my every dream.
