She had always been generous
Patient, tolerant as compliment
Believing she had time to receive
And trained too well to stay silent
She kept searching through as
Lived parts of dream scenarios
Until one evening, she stopped
And opened a sliding glass door
As she stepped back, he suddenly
Appeared, stepping into the room

Whipped Cream + Sour Cream
“My eldest assures me that I still have time to live a wonderful life, and that we just need to find more healing answers.”
A response happened through a dream
When an upper professional bartended
We had met before teamed on a job
Where before he had supervised me
But the work was done at this party
And polite masks could be removed
My face alighted when I recognized him
But his hardened from purpled passion
He came close as whispered wet-harshly
Hinting at unspeakables he’d do to body
But his sexual tension flowed off me
Because he was not the one I wanted
Upon realizing I was a disinclined male I
Then introduced him to one more suited
Let’s figure out what
Works for you and me
“I won’t put you through that again,” as he took her hand and gave her full eye contact in his sincerity.
“I promise to keep growing and comprehend…
You’ll never have to be alone, agaun.”

What I could do when
I get my hands on you
First – just to touch you
Ah, the wonder of ease!
And then imagination
Is however we please

Baby,
There’d be Hell to pay
For you walking away
You see,
You’ve put a harder load on me
Where our love could set us free
So tell me,
How are you gonna make it up to me?
I don’t need a huge display – just honesty
Stop being hard to get
I am tired of it!
We deserve so much better than this
What’s the excuse?
Too complicated?
Too confused?
Do you think I can’t handle it?
This lock isn’t that hard to tumble
But I need your help to release it
Stop teasing me and
Get right down to business!

Of masking
My passion
As I keep fighting
To reclaim myself
I had pushed through hardships
Carrying too much tension that
Was supposed to find release and
Began to right before car accident
My asking for an intervention was
Seeking help from the stress load
Not requesting next level struggles
Which now concussion compounds!
But hey, hey what can I say – it’s not
Like I had things I still wanted to do
(Wait – I did!)
And true, true I was tired from youth but
I didn’t want vital energy taken from me!
(How rude!)
I’m still going forward because I endure
But I’m more frustrated now by burdens
Making it even harder to create income
Let alone walk with confidence in smile
And the worst part is that there
Seems to be no getting beyond it!

Why would you desire to
Entwine your life with mine
As my age farther advances?
Look at me – I am branded a freak
For daring to love beyond boundaries
Their voices sound like a hound bays
Women are told they are worthless
So men can accumulate purchase
As corrupt our beautiful mystery
So tell me why you’d want me
Words restore faith in humanity
When a Man has courage’s honesty

Know that I am thinking of you
When your birthday arrives
And sending you my love
When I say you are, you are…
I don’t give false compliments
Exacerbate with prolonged unknowns.
“Secure love.”

Their Harmonies!
YAASS!

She had needed to be sure
She was not just going to
Have a hot tryst with him
No matter who he was
And regardless of how
Important he was to her
