Quarantine

someone said
do something productive

songs by night

To God my maker

Who gives songs by night

Lyricist of the birds

Coordinator or galaxies

Put words in my mouth

And hymns in my heart

That the bones you have broken may rejoice

Teach my heart gladness

Make my heart to rest

And be a resting place

Let my soul worship

And her spirit declare your greatness

God my refuge

My heart

My life

My trust

Give me tongues of the heavens

That every song that is raised from me

Intercourses with you in the deep

Fill me even now with you

All I want is you 

tk-luv

winds

Winds of change blow

Breath of fresh air through my skirt

Scary at first

Atmospherics

Adjustment to oxygen and flow 

Taking the mask off, flirt

Ready to burst

Aerodynamics 

Flying through a disrupt, bow and arrow 

Walking into the blinding sunlight, blurt

Taking the test 

Choosing schematics

Baby steps out of the back row 

Chasing new horizons 

Possibility climbs through

Love winks again 

tk-luv

walls

I see you.. 

You I see 

through your extremities 

 the walls that keep you safe

Eyes behind a golden heart

That beats soft at the centre

Sensitive to the touch

A touch my skin responds to at the slightest memory

Wild cravings riding up my legs

Carefully determined 

like your tongue showing her the way

Resting at her meeting place

Fuzzy and warm in my belly

You made it passed my extremities

High walls I built to keep me safe

Right to the core of my being

Soft at the centre,

Seen by you

Seeing me through you

Heart in hand 

tk-luv

dreamers

We dreamt of empires

Giant walls built inexplicably

We foresaw victories

Warlords and knights in fires 

We determined futures

Of greatness and glory

We mapped journeys

Of adventure and song

We imagined family 

Knit by the hand of God

We drew houses 

Tailor made for us 

We are dreamers 

TK-luv 

Xx

thank you

To every one whose ever inspired

Poetry in me

Those who taught me

 new words cause of how you made me feel

Those who held up white flags

When I wanted to rage into a storm

Those signposts that led me here

Those thorns on the roses that made me

Unfollow the scent of you that intoxicated my nostrils

Those bread crumbs that led to satisfaction

Satisfaction in a desire for more unapologetically 

Those pillows that gave me dreams of prosperity, hope and love 

Those stars that showed darkness no fear 

and kings whose magnificence created the queen you see 

Those beats that sat in the back as I danced on stage 

I am grateful 

TK-luv 

Submission

He stands as a priest

Heeding words from God

As He teaches me

His words create a queen  

he dresses me in righteousness

His feet find straight paths 

so I can keep the children safe

In obedience loves wholly and complete

That I am never alone

Always cared for loved and defended 

He takes me by the hand 

Shows me a beautiful reflection of me 

A bride presented to himself

A lover, a king

I then, when I hear his voice

... say, speak my lord 

TK-luv (c)

Wait

I will wait
Till way passed sunset
For you to clean up your mess
And I mine
To fold the clothes neatly
And pack them in The corner

Till you Walk out into your sunlight unafraid
And I smile at day bold. And bright
Till I walk out Praising as I go
Till you break into song at a moments call



I will wait till your heart is as wide open as your arms Till we speak fluently in a conversation and merge our worlds expertly

I will wait till you walk out of the tomb
Leave the decay behind and embrace life
I will wait for you

tk-luv

Stranger Of Mine

Who are you stranger of mine

I know you more than lover could

I don't know your name as we've never taken a 

Saturday afternoon walk in the park

Nor had the pleasure to be formally introduced 

Yet I know the healing properties in your arms

Soothing, caressing,Coarse and firm 

That make me crave to be held

Lighting up my skin in a million candles 

Dancing flames to winds of your breath on my neck 

Countless as a starlit night

Filled with promise and questions 

To be covered and tucked

Enveloped and sent to a place where only your heart can lead

Hills and valleys 

Storms oceans and snow

Scenic views and love paintings

Past idealistic views 

In its depth to find answers to questions 

Hidden in iced mountains 

Preserved for ages

The thirst quenching kiss only your lips can give

Drawing out sighs of contentment 

Pouring from deep wells and clashing with longing 

bursts of treasures sought only by kings

Waves of chocolate peach and tangy notes 

Written in codes deciphered only when expertly delivered and lip read to mine

With the mystery of strangers

But mastery of lovers

Paths Seeing through walls and veils.

But who are you stranger of mine

This girl though - laughing out loud :))

She breathes through her mouth

That uncomfortable scratching sound

Which made her friends say

Breathe properly you also aah!

But her nose was eternally stuffed

Tissues and handkerchiefs her permanent friend

The awkward girl

Had the weirdest first kiss

She doesn’t remember any of it except holding her breath

And praying that her stupid nose doesn’t run

After that she could only giggle at how ridiculous the whole thing was

Lol!

Her crooked teeth stood like the crown in her mouth

The tiara designed by the king fit like a crown

Although when she went on her first date

She didn’t hear a word that dude said

She could only worry if food got inappropriately lodged in her

Hidden tooth

How would she get it out?

The whole meal through she giggled about how ridiculous that would be

Lol!!

Passers by

I loved the feel of the window

As the world rushed passed

The sea sitting quietly watching the sky

The warmth of the day quietly fading away

It was after all the most splendid place I ever saw

I loved the sound of the seven pm metro

As commuters rush passed

In a fiery blaze of white and red

Claiming their place on the highway

It was after all the dizziest city I ever saw

I loved the dream of shade

As the sun rushed passed

With a million sky scrapers, Bright dazzling lights

Ladies in high heels with black hooded veils

It was after all the hottest place I ever saw
