Nubian

Baby you should let me love you/ let me be the one to/ give you everything, you want and need/ Baby good love and protection/ make me your selection/ to show you the way love’s supposed to be/ Baby you should let me…

But you don’t
Is it because I can’t afford
A big house, fancy cars and a boat

Or are you scared of hope
To be held and behold
Some of the purest love you’ll ever know

Like; sex is inadequate
And I ain’t having it
I’d rather make love to your soul
Give you kisses that can curl your toes

And treat your body like a spring rain treats a rose
Slide inside you like my pen when I’m writing a poem
Then let you ride it like you need a way home
Come here so we can make gold
But I won’t stop until you bloom for me
Like your mind is the fuse
Your spirit’s the fuel
And your bodies explosive
But I’m the spark, and I want it to boom for me

Bed Bath and Beyond, what’s your fantasy

Or better yet
When was the last time you dared to dream
Looked in the mirror
And flexed your wings

Realizing that it’s time to fly
That you’re an angel in disguise
And there’s a precious piece of heaven,
Hidden in your insides

It’s that part of you I wanna help you find
But first, we gotta take flight

It’s like,
I wanna push you past your peak
And show you what passion
Was made to be

Touch your body in ways
That make it make believe

Like if you don’t believe in magic
You can’t believe in me

Cause that’s exactly what my love
Was made to be

But I want intimacy

Coated in chocolate
Roasted caramel or butterscotch
And sprinkled with intellect, intuition, and intrigue

I want your essence to invite me
Till it’s exciting

Until your body
Quakes and shuts down
While your spirit screams

And your pleasure becomes a song
You never knew you could sing

A blessing that can breath
The Truths last words
Cause after you it couldn’t speak

Your nothing less than heavenly

So I treat my words to you
Like rings
That symbolize eternity

Because Baby I do
Love you

I love you to degrees
That can melt the sun in a week

Or make a circle seem obsolete
Like you’re the only connection to my history
that I can see
And I want the ancients to feel me watching
When you’re in my reach
Till we

Become counterparts
To love’s art
And you complete me
Completely

You can be my Coretta Scott King

My Sunshine
My Golden Queen
My Greatness
My proof that God lives
My heaven sent promise
You are my, Nubian Goddess

And I love you


Your Brother in Love and Truth
