This yearn is so exact and never failing,
Omnipotent in its reign.
I'm painting you with an immeasurable amount of color
But still can't get the hue of your face.
At night, you become my sleep aid.
During the day, you give shape to my purpose that I couldn't see.
I'm still not sure of how you look.
A love that doesn't exist in my everyday...
Words missing from my vernacular...
Missing an incomplete thought...
Dangling in amazement by the scent that lingers on my sheets.
When you come, I'll build you a fortress.
The valiance of my anticipation will build one for me.
You'll figure that everything before was just preparation for this.
My mistakes will be perfected into bouts of romance.
You'll know I love you.
It'll be forever...

Hi There! I recently joined the Blogs by Black Women RingSurf. I'm excited about meeting other African American women bloggers. I invite you to visit Sojourner's Place. The doors are always open there.
And just a reminder, October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Come by and let us know when you got yours (smile).

GIRL!
I really felt this, for real! you really have a great writing style!
Hey miss...i just recently started following your blog....and i have to say...i love it. I just sat here and read every blog since you started (if there are only 29 LOL). I really like how you combine storytelling and so intricately weave it in with poetry. I like you use of metaphors, every line is so deep. you inspire me too. I write poetry and stories and i haven't seen alot of material that is this deep. Keep writing and doing your thing. You truly have a special gift!
