 Raindrops fall quickly

Warm tears trace a tear stained face

Puddles form in sorrow…

Floetry Friday – Infinite Flower

INFINITE FLOWER

 

In the path of the suns rays

The infinite flower blooms…

Sowing seeds of eternal beauty

Ripening from its roots

Soil nourishing its stem

Endless aroma manifested

Sweet nectar envelops the senses

Bursting of the orchids ecstasy

Blossoming the ambiguity of rejuvenation

Floetry Friday-Limpid Stream

 LIMPID STREAM

 

See…                                                                   

You question if I am the one,

But love me with your every being

Can’t see yourself without me but you don’t see me

The person who loves you through the ups and downs

Through the struggles that have brought us this far

My lips have spoken about you and god sending you to me

Its divine and all I’ve ever wanted was for you to be all mine

You have that and don’t even see what is right in front of you

Selfishly you see yourself, not the love you have

But I don’t have the same love and can’t embrace the same thing.

Clear as a limpid stream….

Constantly praying that the storm will subside and I can finally wipe my eyes

But the waves continue to crash, slowly weakening me

Yearning…. for the one that loves me to remove me from this pain.

I can’t change him because he is perfection in my eyes,

He is who I love, not what I love

He is worth it to me; we can be beautiful if he took the time to see

Me…

Not what he wants me to be but what I am

Can he love me indefinitely? And keep my heart close?

Can he see me in him and him in me?

I can and that scares me because I don’t feel the same from him.

Can he?

Optimism bestowed upon me and hopes the answer is yes and that we can be

But first he must see

Me…

Then we will see if we can be…

Regret – Letoya Luckett ft Ludacris

Floetry Friday – Fast Forward

FAST FORWARD

If I was to press rewind

Am I going right back to the beginning?

Or take pauses in between?

The parts that take a poke

At my internal strings

And then takes me back

To when things were smooth

No rough patches to fill

When we were in the groove

Not like the end where I feel nil

So pressing rewind seems to make sense?

Butterflies

Don’t feel so tense

Seems like it ties

In

To my plan…

But if I insert another

Just press play

Discard of the last

Remold the clay

The vibe may be intermittent

Or fast forward

And it may b different

Synchronization…

Anticipating what’s to come

Vision forward seeking

Not back where I came from…

Music Monday – This Is It

Micheal Jackson’s new song “This Is It”. Check it out

Floetry Friday – Blurred

BLURRED

Masked confusion,

Leads to diverted illusions,

Smoke screen of hidden faces,

Blurred conception of what I thought I could see.

Instead the figment of my imagination runs as deep,

As wounds that flow,

Like the river of fake existences that attempt to take and take and take,

Without thought of how to create,

The unity and strength that can make,

Solid foundations and relations,

in which we shall partake,

Instead of trying to break…

Why must you have your cake?

And I can’t have mine?

Why must I pay the fine?

Just because you cant find you,

Broken time and again,

Trying to send,

Me spiraling down to your level of emptiness,

Internally fill yourself,

Till you overflow,

And take the time to glow…
