i feel unworthy of your glance
because
hope springs eternal from your smile
its like when sunrise meets baby's laughter
an intoxicating innocence
getting me lost in the chapter & verse of your testimony
anytime you speak.
its real
i heal a little more
listening to a
transformative wordsmith living in your truth inspires
sometimes
i like to daydream in the belief that had we met sooner
we wouldn't be a disaster waiting to happen
and
i wouldn't be the next person to break your heart
even if you grant me redemption
i'm still a symphony of catastrophe
and you
a nubian queen too good for the likes of me
a life lived dangerously
perhaps you like to flirt with death and destiny
walk tightropes of propriety till proven right
that there is no wrong way to live.
against better senses i dare steal a kiss
in back yards illuminated by envious stars
i inhale your light
as if a human defribulator
jumpstarting my heart back in to a now-now time signature
with the future as a possibility
the present a security
and the past
a distant memory.
th
never do i wish to
Love & Light,
