Mr. Africa Poetry Lounge!

She's Like...


The Smooth, sweet sound of her exhale
Is Like a breath of fresh air,
Like the wind in sails...
it blows me away 2 think that she feels for me
the same as I do for her.
& now I'm breathless...
Like I was underwater and wreckless
she was my 24k gold chain but I tied her too tight & she left me neckless...


Engulfed by her & submerged in her ocean.
I was Floating adrift in her current... or in my past,
Either way, every second of it was clear, like glass....
I was saturated in her name... chasin after it like it was fame.
Lookin 4 her Limelight & I don't kno why.
Like a sponge she picked me up and squeezed me til I trickled dry.


Like an Oasis to my desert,
She was hard to find. once I did, it had me wonderin if she was really real...
Probably an allusion but still...
ill remain in that desert only to spend more time with that mirage of her.
You see...
That's just how thirsty I am...


She only gave me bits & pieces so I guess I got a collage of her.
Set the coordinates 4 my heart & rain a barrage of her.
For 40 days and nights.
Want her all to myself so I tried camouflagin her.
But to no avail...


Tryin 2 figure out if she's a gift or a curse
Figuring out which one is worse...
All I kno is that if I'm the sun then she gotta b the center of the universe.


And I'm spiraling out of control.
She just keep pullin me in.
Sucked into her like I was light and she was a black hole...
And I just can't excape.
Wishin upon a star so,
I'm hopin this was fate
So I'm sorry if I draw a blank
Its just so hard to concieve...
I need her Like the air that I breathe


But for some reason I'm still holdin my breath.
Hopin she don't play me to the left...


So in order for me to rest peacefully
I wanna give her every piece of me
& excuse if I don't have ne decency
But...
She's all I can think of as of recently.


As u can see, my enfactuation 4 her
Is undeniable...
So the best way 2 describe her
Is simply undescribable...
