Purpose
The unique orange,
I wanted to be just like her
But you must bloom just as bright,
To become her, is a beautiful delight.
I know, I know I’m a red spotted cauliflower
How dare I think I was right.
Suddenly rushing for answers, a melting bright yellow tree has one last thing to say.
“Hello Mrs. Cauliflower, thank you for coming my way!”
Through the yellow drippings of her leaves, a yellow-red cauliflower believes;
“I wasn’t born orange, but born with many things: love, hope, and ambition,
Could forever accomplish my dreams.
Too often I forget that I'm just a bright and bitter orange, cause instead, you make me feel like outraging fire in your hands ready for the coldness of the world.
Forbidden Pleasure
I fell in love with a lamb,
Oh no, oh why
I’m a carnivorous Lion, in love with her eyes
My lady, oh baby
A forbidden desert
The entree of life
Brought here by the earth
I imagine the taste of her flesh
Unable to deny it,
Contemplating the damage it’ll do to my diet
Something worth my while
Like a diabetic predator having a sweet tooth of a child
Lost in a candy store, that they can’t explore
Why must you be too sweet for me to endure.
The sugar from your lips, created an avenue
Solely guided from your hips, so that I would forever
Have the pleasure of looking at you.
Reminiscing
I remember you.
Multiple reflections of my ear to ear smiles,
As I gazed into your eyes
After traveling 3,000 miles
Longing for your touch,
Reminiscing on the way
My heart dancing to the beat of your drumming every day
Resembling the water
That keeps me alive
Like Chamomile tea, healing me inside
Soothing my pain,
You’re better than a drug, more addicting than cocaine,
Happier than the high
My reminder of every day, that I should be alive.
To Eve
To Eve,
Be bright, tempting, and confident. But don’t be ashamed, insecure, and lost in it.
See the world is cruel, we argue not for understanding but for status. So don’t explain yourself, but rather dig your heel into the concrete of this earth and speak the fuck up for what you believe in babygirl.
