A Love Like That

What I want is to be wanted

Needed

Desired

Enjoyed

Savored by someone who wants to find balance and harmony

Someone who wants to grow

My number one fan

Someone who welcomes me 

With strong warm arms

When we fuck

We take each other to ecstasy

There will never be a reason to question the integrity

Truth

Honesty

I’ll wait for a love like that

Forever means forever

With you

I am the total package 

As I stand here in all my perfection

With all my seeming flaws

And all my insecurities

Hearing the ego but knowing the Self

I’m the legend you one day hoped to find 

But never thought existed

I am everything and more that you ever wanted and ever needed

I can love you the way you want

I can keep you smiling

You can be yourself with me

I see you because I am you

I know you because you are me

Teach me

I want to build with you

Watch you smile in the sunrise

I want to learn how to love you

To see joy in your eyes

I want to discover all the places you’ve kept hidden from others

Because you feel safe with me

Even when you didn’t think you did

Even when you told yourself never again

You let me in

Because you want to

And you know we can grow

Touching

I wasn’t fooled by your insecurity

It seems to be a recurring theme around me

I wasn’t saddened when you pushed me away

Such follies are for the weak

As lost as you were you found my light

And you held it till it burned you

Yet I could do nothing to comfort your wounds

But be

And you returned

Time and again

Each time a little more broken

Finding solace in my light

Tears of the sun

I allowed myself to dance in the playground of the ego

I allowed myself so succumb to the lies

It wasn’t your words that got me

It was how I saw things through my eyes

Again and again I let love in

The poor

The weak

The tired and bold

Those who were looking for refuge

Those who couldn’t do it on their own

I could be everything you need

And you know it

And it scares you

But I can’t let it be

But you can

And you will

Because you started it

Still

I wonder

If not now

When

If not me

Then

Who

If everything you said to me were lies

And I refuse to see beyond my eyes

What are we doing

Why are we here

What other signs could make this more clear

That it’s over

It’s over

Before it’s begun

And I’m left alone

With the tears of the sun

Don't give up

Don’t give up

Do your research

Surrender to Truth 

Live in love

And don’t give up

Revolutionary

We will not be silenced

We will not be forgotten

We will not be abused

We will not be intimidated

We will not be ashamed

We will not live in fear

We will not hide in the shadows

We will not conform

We will not hate

We will not be anything less than peaceful 

Reminiscent

I looked for you today and you weren’t there

You’d been there every time before

I don’t know why I looked for you

Maybe because I miss you

Maybe because I miss how I felt with you

I always tell myself not to look for you

But today I wanted to

And you weren’t there

Maybe you finally understood what I meant when I said I couldn’t see you anymore

In any capacity

You finally disappeared

I still hold onto one last piece of you

To see you if I need to

If I want to

I don’t know if I’ll ever use it

But I have it

I wonder if you’re doing the same with me

Turning Point

Climbing up through the wreckage

Slowly and calculated 

No longer drowning in overages of emotions

Ascending to that which is beyond the sorrow

Rising towards the light

The scent is my own

Not someone else’s

I can taste victory in overcoming

Savory 

I savor every moment of the journey

Iniquity

So you pick up your guns

And then what

You fight with your words

And then what

You quarrel and quibble 

You can’t even giggle

Cause you feel life got you fucked up

You turn up the charm

And then what

You raise up your arms

And then what

You get it your way

You don’t realize today

Could be your last day to show up

Eminence

In the essence of my light I honor myself

I keep beating

I keep believing 

I will not stray far from the path 

Phoenix

This body is a limitation

This body is beautiful 

This body is perfect

This body is whole

But

This body is a limitation
