love
Take my life,
scatter the pieces all over.
I can't seem to suffice,
can't grasp our
final closure.
Why did everything
have to end?
Or why did it
have to begin?
Pain is my normal,
misery is my everyday,
I'm glad our last talk
was formal,
I'm glad you actually
knew what to say.
I promise this will be
my last good-bye,
we'll never walk
this hard road again.
And this time
I know I won't cry,
but ill be smiling
to myself within.

beautiful, care, devotion, girl, girlfriend, i love you, love,
I am aware that words will never suffice
We stand desparately
One in front of the other
Your face blemished with tears
So what did you do?
Asked the me, I once was
What will you do?
Begged the me, I shall become
What are you doing?
I urged myself
I stepped towards her and wrapped her in my arms
I had no words to offer
So I gave myself instead
My gift to her
A presence
I held the love of my eternity as she shed her grief
In my silence I professed my love for her
In my silence I revealed to her God's comfort

love,
Just a whiff of your musky perfume
would suffice to fill my home.
Just a husky laugh of yours
is sufficient to make my day.
Just a show of your faithful love
is enough to send me into paradise.
Just a look from your dark brown eyes
is just right to make me quiver with love.
Just a passionate kiss from your lips
is adequate to satiate my life.

YOUR TOUCH
is a gift swelled inside my nape-
wrapped up in words of
love that suffice my desire
for you ignite my body’s fire
i tie myself snug with ruby red ribbons,
gentle whispers enveloped inside-
make sure the silver bow is in its
place so you may open with blown
kisses and perpetual promises
you open me up-
soft lace overlaying barren skin;
i disentangle and fall into your arms,
you kiss me like the first and we melt
into the abyss of marriage bliss;
my love, it’s always been…
YOUR TOUCH

Suffice it to say I knew you before
you and I became so much more.
You started out as my best friend.
I started loving my life again.
We laughed and cried both with tears.
You helped put an end to all my fears.
Suddenly I realized I loved you so
I told you and you said," I know."
I feel the same you said to me.
But just being friends lets us be free.
Lets enjoy each other I don't want it to end.
Love destroys the fabric of being a friend.
Jealousy will arive and hate will come too.
The end of a friendship is I love you.
I reluctantly agreed but you were so clever.
This thing that we share makes us friends forever.

10th grade, emotions, feelings, heart, i love you, imagery, love,
I close my eyes, enamored by your kiss,
and I let that feeling float me away.
My pulse races in my hypnotic bliss;
for I love you more than words can convey,
Even the sun appears dim next to you;
my love will last forever and a day.
All that poets write about love is true;
it's even more magical than they say.
Yet whispering I love you, won't suffice,
for I need to feel the words in my heart.
As time pauses to extend paradise,
you must make me believe we'll never part.

addiction, desire, feelings, longing,
A ranging hunger deep inside,
a twisted coat of shame
a free-wielding fire
that nothing can contain
It can not be extinguished,
the searing sword of lust
to feed the growing hunger
that turns ashes into dust.
How insatiable it must feel,
the demanding, constant drive
when feeding the growing need
makes you feel alive.
It's variations of emotion,
where love is but discourse
because you crave something more
an intimate, emotional divorce.
Everything can't be cuddled,
making love will not suffice
where pain equals pleasure
needs aren't always nice.
The world is not a PG page,
nor only black and white
sometimes it calls for a freak
and not a gentle knight.

i miss you, lost love,
there's an ardent desire
burnt upon the umbrage
of my mind's deepest thoughts
on fields of green
i sit lost in the strokes
of time's hands
yearning to feel you
like a whisper of wind
as it twirls my hair
in its gentle breath
i long to strip
layers of life
that bind my heart
in the torment
that moans
through the valley
in heavy sighs
i want to gambol
like fragrant petals
in summer's warm caress
not suffocate on smokey breaths
in winter's colorless drab
i suspire beneath mist of dusk
laden upon my skin
and suffice in the bitterness
of your absence
through the traces
etched upon my face
as the years pass by
without you

What shadows hide
your dreaming petals?
Ebony srtains, pure
blackness never seen.
You Pimpernel rose
will elusive
be your name.
Entwined with brothers white
so many hearts
to flutter.
A dream of Martin
Luther king
love seeps
in roots together.
An emblem for embrace.
The African star
will not suffice,
to buy your knotted gait.
But to see your wonder
afore I die,
I hope natures
not too late.

depression, forgiveness, girlfriend-boyfriend, love, love,
She's reckless and a constant change,
Her ways have gone from calm to ill;
A love so pure does she exchange
But waves a warm embrace turn chill.
Could you awake to morning grey,
Or bright sunshine in the night
A storm that brews in early day-
Or an impulse shed by late moonlight?
Could you let her in your heart that's sure,
In your mind of ready thought?
Could you invite her sure uncertainty
And the frustration that she's brought?
Could you let me in when I'm a mess,
My sharp tongue, but gentle touch?
Will my love alone suffice,
Or am I just too much?

giving,
It’s very tricky giving gifts
‘Cause it can be a waste
If what you’ve chosen doesn’t jibe
With the receiver’s taste.
The hours you spend searching
For what they will love, you hope,
Often ends with shallow smiles
And the verdict clearly – nope!
‘Cause the vibe was off, the size was wrong,
The color or the style
Missed the mark that you were aiming for,
By possibly a mile.
For those folks who hate to risk it,
Well, a gift card might suffice,
But a gift that hits the sweet spot
For the giver’s twice as nice.

funny love,
When we got married at twenty two
We said our vows beside a ski-doo
But then got marooned
So we honeymooned
In a five star, two story igloo
My wife said a stiff drink would be nice
But I couldn’t locate any ice
So I stripped to get numb-er
Then asked for a hummer
Hoping that my iced cubes would suffice

When a man brings his wife some flowers without reason
You can bet your sweet bippy there's definitely treason
Flowers are quite nice
But really don't suffice
However large sums of money would deal with the demons

poets,
John’s “journey of high hopes through life’s extremes”
Of “searching poet’s trek while chasing dreams”,
“Heavy load of life”, eloquently shared,
No inner longings of his soul he spared.
Goodness and Gracious – highlights of mankind,
One would suffice; both truly is a find.
Nuanced, his nurtured words cast far and wide,
Depth of his vivid vision - verified.
Once his verse “wraps round tightly like a glove
Leaving our lonely hearts” so full of love!
Following your muse – esthetic journey.

black african american,
I tell you of a Queen
As dawn crept upon me silently.
The ear picks up on a bath prepared.
Breakfast flirting with my nose,
A true mother you are...
Her love brings solace to a community
and humbles troubled,treason ed hearts.
Caring for the young and old souls
I tell you about a mother...
I tell you of a pillar
There at every talent show
A savior in life cruxes
Mother of true diligence indeed.
I searched for adjectives,
none suffice you dear mother
I ended up with this...
Mother you are love.

my heart, it beats with pure true love
unconditional love

without no strife
unconditional love
mother nature without a shove
I would fight for her life
she will survive
on me rely
I would fight for her life
only my best will it suffice
for her, I'd give my time
am I losing
my head choosing
for her, I'd give my time
how I would love to call her mine
she is ours, our lady
no doubt, alive
she can't contrive
she is ours, our lady

Will you be my Valentine?
Take me out and wine and dine,
Lavish me with chocolate candy,
A bouquet of roses would be dandy.
A diamond or pearl would be nice,
My favorite perfume would suffice.
Ah, Honey, I don't really care,
If all I get is a teddy bear.
You're worth much more to me than material things,
Your crooked grin still sends a zing!
Knowing that you're mine, all mine,
Is gift enough, Sweet Valentine.

Come home soon, please

All this just to get paid
Improvised Explosive Device

absence, betrayal, break up, farewell, longing, love hurts, lust,
For all those sins & reckless lies. For all the time and tears and sacrifice
And all his honest words too late, too shallow now to vindicate
A futile bid at any rate
And far too little to suffice
She saw the time that passed her by,
Too weak to look within and wonder why
Had torn apart and wrought to dust
The little things which earned his trust.
That bruised their lips and stirred her lust and left him burning in reply
But now it seems just far too real
And strange there isn't more beneath to feel
A numbness spreads and quells his heart, together seems now so apart
The ending once again, the start
The ever spinning wheel.

Memories mesmerize moments shared
Time stills, passion pervades
Bodies quiver and linger in space
As the sun consents its heavenly gaze.
