candy crush

I played candy crush till I ran out of lives
I crushed on you so long 
There's no combination of candy I couldn't make 

My favourite is when you wore blue stripped suit 
And would stretch out you arms 
seemingly annihilate all my problems 
With a resounding wonderful 


Or when you'd come through like a color bomb attacking my insecurities in a precise fashion 
All of the sudden only you remained awesome 
Except my lives were running out 
Every time I went out on a limb for you, 


I was losing my own 
Every chocolate craving moment I desired you meant no self development for me 
Every single try fell short
One more space to fill the jelly
One more animal to free
Always not enough
Inadequate
Yes you good at everything else except this one thing

issa fire

So the fire has been lit
A humming of the tune
Bursting with excitement
My skin sings again

What love feels like
Tip toeing 
Sunkissing 
Softest whispers 

Caught me by surprise 
I dont want to stop 
I wanna continue 
Timeless


My mind draws a picture 
perfect stillness 
Her echo an ancient 
Verse, hidden 

She looks and sees you 

My soul recognises you 
... You must be from forever 
The happy place 
Where we danced in the moonlight 

With wit and humour 
You slide me into your world 
Mastery of lovers 
And mystery of strangers

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Tenacity

 What scares you the most The fact that am unbreakable  I contained a 10 year  nuclear bombing  Escapade inside of my heart Yet her I stand ...
