How Do U Like Ur Love?

I like my love unconditional
Somewhat traditional
Actual and factual
And in no ways fictional
My love
is
best served warm
Over trials and tribulation
It listens
when I speak
And gives me a tingling sensation
I like my love
honest and fair
I like love that can see me
Even if ain’t nobody else aware
How do U like Ur love
Whips and chains?
or peaches and cream?
I just like my love to be real
I like my love
everlasting
Love that gives answers
without you asking
Love that’s great at multi tasking
That’s the kind of love I like
I like my love to be eternal
On going and persistant
When you’re in the fire
It’s love that’s flame resistant
How do U like Ur love
I like mine shaken
but not stirred
My love is in stereo
Louder than any song you ever heard
I like love that bends and moves
Relaxes and soothes
Love that makes you
dance to no music
love so good
you can’t help
but accuse it
of being
the best
you
ever had

A Better Woman

i have to thank you
give you your props
high five
big ups
cause it's all because i met you
that I'm better
better than before
stronger than before
i now know
i know exactly what it takes to please a man
because i stretched myself beyond limits for you
reached way beyond boundaries
dug deep within the farthest
recesses of my mind
to find
a love
a love that knew no limits
it was reckless abandon
caution to the wind
it was careless and pure
irregular and unsure
but for me
it was love
love that made me better
wiser
love that made me cry
harder
love that made me want
more
love that made me die
and then live
and that's why
i have to thank you
because you taught me valuable lessons
molded me and shaped me
forced me to
look at myself and realize
that
i
am
better

Beautiful music

blended
splendid
we make beautiful music together
love laid over tracks
of soulful melodies
drifting into bliss
our tempo synchronized
and harmonized
funky like doo wop
controversial as hip hop
we make beautiful music together
in unison
we sing with no lyrics
a chorus with no hook
and no verse
acappella
from our diaphram
deep
we summon the voice of love
rock and sway
snapping fingers
tapping feet
we rhythm
we rhyme
line after line
we make beautiful music together
a song remembered
heartbreak
from a past forgotten
no other love but this one will
duet
we adlib
peak at the bridge
and crescendo
fade out into
jazz ensemble
saxophone
pounding bassline
wrap us up warm
in
beautiful music

wishful thinkin.....

i wish
a man could see me before hand and not after the fact ....i wish niggas would acknowledge my love recognize it as prime stock instead of treating it like it's black market....i wish i could stop loving so hard... i wish i had money for every nigga i prepared for the next female....i wish i could be a bitch so this shit wouldn't hurt as much....then it would be me hurting them instead of them hurting me....i wish i didn't have to sleep alone....i wish i could stop writing poems about a man that isn't even thinking about me....i wish i had a man and me and him could fall in love and be somewhere at the precise time he was so he could see that he doesn't have my heart no more...i wish my eyes didn't leak water everytime i think about how much time i wasted....how much good loving i gave away....how many dreams and secrets i told ......how many late nights i answered the phone from a deep sleep but pretended i was wide awake just because it was him...and just because i wanted just a little of his time.....i wish i could have a full glass instead of a half a cup...i wish....

Him

I saw him yesterday
he was looking the other way
and even though I tried to say
hello
he didn't see me
he couldn't see me because
he was looking at her
and she was looking at him
and I felt foolish
for trying to get his attention
in the first place
and as I drove away
tears streaming down my face
I was reminded
this was not the first time
I saw him
and he didn't see me
in all reality
he had never seen me
and never heard a word I said
to him
I was invisible
disposable
a casualty of love and war
I saw him
pass right by me
I was speaking loud enough
but he still couldn't hear me
and even when I was right in his face
he couldn't see me
but he didn't have the courage
to tell me he didn't need me
or didn't want me
and had chosen another
I saw him for the first time
and the last time
wishing each time
had never happened.

My Old School Boyfriend

He held my hand
played trumpet in the band
and I was in the chorus
we were old school
with the whole world before us
we were tongue kissin and slow draggin
underneath a black light
how 'bout us
and he used to write me letters
tell me we would be together
always and forever
indeed
he was a dream come true
he told me I was like an orange
the best part of me was on the inside
and when we broke up I was
all cried out
like a baby cause even though I was only 13
he told me I was
Once, twice
three times a lady
we were old school
he gave me my first kiss
and even now I miss him
the innocence
the essence
he was my old school premonition
represented the man I would love later
before he even came into fruition
he was pure and what we shared
was untainted and unfiltered
it bloomed like a
wildflower
in an open field
and made me want to love
and made me want to kiss and hug
we were old school
like
sukiyaki
and silly
reunited like peaches and herb
my heart hung on his every syllable noun
and verb
ears clung hungrily to his every word
he was my hero
my romeo
my first love before I knew what love was
and he planted the hope in my heart
that remains unrooted
and waiting
for another real love
and old school love
a love on a two way street kinda love
a looking for the perfect beat kinda love
a love that is
old school

When I thought I could go Natural....

talkin' trash about Koolaid

He was just like a tall glass of koolaid
Grape mixed with the lemonade
Sipped in the shade
On a hot and sunny day
He made me want to runaway
Barefoot and pregnant
Through any and everything
He made me want to by a ring
He filled my belly with
Love peace and happy
It was like whatever
And I aint never been the type
To look for Mr. Right but
He just showed up in my life
One night
Right when I had gotten tired
Of drinking plain old dirty water
Out a dirty glass and I
Must admit at first
That dirty water did quench my thirst
But I got to a place where
I wanted something a little more sweeter
A little more good
Something get all down in your feet good
Make you come so hard you got to roll
Over and go to sleep good
make you say
Good Gawd Almighty
That koolaid grape mixed with the lemonade
Sipped in the shade on a hot and sunny day sho
Is good make you wanna run away barefoot
That koolaid quenched a thirst in me that I
Didn’t even know I had
It made me glad for the spoon
That stirred the pitcher of my emotion
What a commotion it made my love potion he became
Made me want to call out his name
HEY KOOLAID
In the middle of the park
After dark
BUCK E NAKED
With the exception of some
Bright red chucks
I'm like what the fuck
It's whatever nikka
You can have it all
Long as I get to call you daddy
I will gladly sip your koolaid
Grape mixed with the lemonade
Sipped in the shade on any hot and sunny day
he made me want to runaway
Barefoot and pregnant
Through any and everything
I turned into a koolaid smilin'
Koolaid wildin’ fool
I was koolaid drinkin' and koolaid thinkin'
Him like red red wine
And I know you think I’m just talking trash
But he had me crazy
If I was to catch somebody
Sippin on my koolaid grape mixedwith the lemonade sipped
In the shade on a hot and sunny day
BABY
It would be hell to pay
Cause you know I don’t even play
You know you got to guard a good glass
Of koolaid with your life
Pickens is slim nowadays
Half these men already got a wife
He had me on the phone with my girlfriend saying
“yeah girl, guess what? I done messed around
and found me a real man. And I bet my man can
make koolaid better than your man can"
and then
it hit me
this chick couldn’t even begin to understand
cause she had never tasted my koolaid before
cause if she had ever tasted my koolaid before
friend or not
me and that chick woulda been rollin on the floor
I'm for real
I know you think I'm just talking trash
But if I was to roll up on your ass
And get all up in your face and ask you
If you had ever had a taste of my
Koolaid grape mixed with the lemonade
Sipped in the shade on a hot and sunny day
Your answer had
better be
no

Soulful Flower

(An Ode to Bridgette)
By CARiMFLow

I Think

It Has Been,
What,
Just Of Couple Days
And I've Lost Track Of Words I've Said Before
One's I've Loved Before
And
I Have Never Been So At Peace

I Am
Suspended
In The Continuum Of Time
Embarking On A Journey
To The Source Of My Wet Dreams
Seeing Your Silhouette
Dancing
In The First Rays Of A Mornings Sun
It's Going To Be A Good Day

I Smile

With Each Sensuous Tone
Each Anticipated Moan
I Feel All Of My Seed
Rushing
From Each Of My Spheres Of Life
Chemically Reacting
Into An Explosion
Of
Fertilizing Emotions
Meant To Entice
The Soul Of My Flower
To Animate
You Whisper To Me
Those Three Words
Written
On The Underside Of Each Leaf

I Listen

I Pluck
Each Petal Of The Flower's Soul
She Loves Me (I Smile)
She Loves Me Not (I Fear)
She Loves Me (I Gain Confidence)
O.K. That's Enough
She Loves Me It Is (I Make Plans For The Rest Of My Life)

I Hope

A Feel Of Post-Erotic Breath,
A Saturated Touch,
A Smell Of Ruined Hair
Orgasmic Times Of Two
Merging
Into One Complete Emotion
A House Full Of Strange Feet
Laughing And Playing Together
All This
A Closed Door Away
From The Echoes
We Make
In A Bath Of Yellow Rose Petals
Dimly Lit
By The Candlelight
Prisiming
Off Of Each Perfect Bubble


I Feel

Warmed
As You Place Me
Within Your World
Spent
As You Take Flight
Hurt
As We Write "Yes" On Each Other's Spine
Harder And Softer (Uhh!)
Shallower And Deeper (Ahhh!)
Slower And Faster (Shit!)
We Cry Out (Shhhhhhhhhhhh!)
I Came,
Then Throbbed Until You Caught Up

I Surmised

A Soul Of A Flower
I Learned To Love
The Heart Of Man It Needs
The Soul Of A Flower
I Need In My Life
And
I'm All The Water She'll Need

We Are

Understanding
Each Other
Better Now,
For We Are

In Love

locked up

in the middle
of my life's sentence
while i was doing my time
confined solitarily in my mind
to the prison of my own thoughts
i looked around
and found that i hadn't
committed any crime
i was just an innocent victim
of circumstances
beyond my control
so i called on the powers
that be
come free me
let me go
i just came to myself
and realized that
i didn't want to be a
prisoner
no more

Thoughts of You

Thoughts of you...
like the moon
disappearing behind the sun
you amaze me
simply craze me as I think of the
days we
spend
my best friend
till the end
and back to the beginning again
like the sun
on a rainy day
you chase water away
from eyes
that have cried
too many times
it is your essence
that shines
your presence that defines
true love that binds
your heart to mine
like the stars
are numbered in the sky
so many reasons why
I can't say goodbye
Complete my thought before I think
Quench my thirst before I drink
Cover me warm like mink
have my passion on the brink
your name written on my heart in
permanent ink
these are the thoughts of you
