I am in love with your aura
It consumes me
Fills me with the very being of you
White, Crystal clear
The perfect balance
Of healing nature that calms me
Taking us both on a spiritual wave of ecstasy
We meditate
At the center of earths core
We transcend
In each other’s embrace
Surrounded by blinding white light
Radiating with the pulse of limitless energy
Moving through our bodies
Rising higher and higher
Like a kundalini awakening
Our ascension is complete
Words,
That flow from his mouth effortlessly
Have a profound effect on me
Making me stop in my tracks and take notice
He has much to say
So much information that my mental is sent on a sensory overload
Overwhelmed by the knowledge he delivers
Awakening a part of me that has lay dormant
For quite some time
He stops and looks directly at me
Everyone in the room disappears
Just us two
Communicating with our eyes because the eyes don’t lie
They show you in your truest form
Me, open and vulnerable
Him, strong and secure
Immediately finding his Betty to his Malcolm
He’s ready to have me and protect me by any means necessary
Shook, I turn and leave
Needing to put space between whatever is happening
But not far out the door a strong hand stops me
Turning me
Capturing me in his eyes again
And when he speaks to me
The words flow effortlessly from his mouth
Have a profound effect on me
Stops me in my tracks and makes me take notice
Are we living to die?
Constant tears watering graves as countless mothers cry.
Brothers, sisters, husbands, uncles, nieces, and somebody’s cousin gone away.
While it’s so hard to say goodbye to yesterday is left in the background to play.
What is it about us that you fear?
Is it the melanin engraved deep beneath our skin?
The skin the gives proof of where live begins?
Within us we gave birth to many generations,
Powerful enough to lead nations.
Or maybe you’re scared of what we leave behind; Legacies
Legacies you intended to strip from us with your privilege
Your privilege that no longer compares
To the generational wealth we now create
The generational wealth that scares you like our melanin
Our generational wealth that will transform our black dollars into black businesses
So you’re scared
Scared enough to use your badge and privilege to sin
That many sins you committed by taking the life
Of the descents from where life began
Confident, that’s what you have been with each one taken
Our silence has had you severely mistaken
We have walked in the light of peace like Martin
But oh how quickly we can get it cracking like Malcolm
For it was he that said:
Be peaceful, be courteous, obey the law, respect everyone; but if someone puts his hand on you, send him to the cemetery.
Now that I have your attention, let me be clear
We are done being filled with fear whenever we get pulled over
There will be no justification for the wrong doings of others
Our voices will not be silenced or bought
No longer will loved ones spend countless times in the cemetery
Consider the grass to be overwater by mother’s tears
No longer will we live to die.
I am caught up in your beauty
Not the outside beauty,
That’s the beauty everyone sees
The superficial way of viewing beings like you.
I could easily get caught up in those
Your nutmeg skin that glows when the sun hits it just right
Your dark brown eyes that have the ability to hold me in a trance becoming a slave to your every wish
Those perfectly shaped lips that make me long to feel them against mine for never ending amounts of time
And that body that you spend countless hours in the gym crafting and molding to perfection
Yeah, I can easily get wrapped up in those
But that type of beauty fades when it’s unmatched internally
No I wanna dive into the depths of your soul
Explore all the manners mama instilled in you while reveling in that swag daddy gave you
I want to blush when you say sweet things to me
Compliment how much of a gentleman you are every time you open my door
Squeal when you randomly pick me up and spin me around
And feel my heart melt every time that precious little girl that we created has you doing something girlie just to make her happy
That’s the beauty I’m in love with
That I find myself caught up in.
We’re the it couple
The ride or die couple
I’m Bonnie and you’re Clyde
Lies
I don’t wanna be your Bonnie
You can’t be my Clyde
In the end Bonnie and Clyde died
And baby we’re not meant to die
We will travel through this world many times
See nations fall and people rise
They will cheer us on each time
As we ride through the states yelling
LIVE FREE OR DIE
Die we shall not
Again, that’s just something we don’t do
Because I’m not Bonnie and your not Clyde
When we ride, we ride
And when it all said and done
As our body’s lay to rest
We will return to our original form
Floating through time and space
Energy never dies
