Determination

Its the feel , the reeling in , the knowing your way is paved
Its giving it your all, its faith,
Its walking the walk, the narrow road , not being swayed

Drive

Taking the wheel

Tires squeal

Cruise Control , Top down

Bright Lights , Bright lives

Success bound

maps drawn

Treasure found

Smooth

Fingers blind feel the string

smooth cold metal sings

pressing , strumming until it comes

close to screaming moaning tones

same ol song

I find that even when we have no idea why we are hated someone always seems to know a good reason why . Mine is bigger than yours , yours is bigger than mine, if you have something i want then i should have it not you , if tomorrow comes is...n't it supposed to be mine , not meant for you. It maybe they wanted fame , it may be they hate the light to shine on anyone but them or it maybe they know more about a situation then we all do. Its sad that we cant all just get along, its sad that there is always going to be that same old song.

Dont let go

Fresh is a feeling that's addictive and new like leather smells or the feeling of broke in shoes but being unworn. Its the first feeling of excitement that will soon diminish if let to fade like being unborn. Jump up grab that bull by the horns.

Relationships

Its because of them and what was we which made us who you and me forever inside the mind beautiful sigh in hellos and goodbyes

unexpected sorrow

hearts ache , things imagined plans made
the sweat it took to make what
was thought would be great
today or tomorrow
there's always going to be unexpected sorrow
legs may be weak but still able to stand tall
walking past the beaten day for its only one not all

August 2 at 4:49pm ·

When death comes for a visit

Hair grown white years of growing. Grown children gathered around standing room only.

when the past hitch hikes

The past collides with the present , the future pushed forward, the wounds the healing , the here and now concealing , bruises , heartache , lying , truth be known , where really is home

Held Still

So many straight jackets tied tightly around who we
really are

Smiles mask invisible frowns

Lonely hearts beat lonely beats waiting to be found

Wishing they could scream out set me free

Silence being their only sound

Take a chance , untie those strings tied tight

Remove the mask and scream

Breath

Experience what its like to be Free

_____________________________

I wrote this piece for the ones holding back , hiding , wishing dreaming

We can always say time passed us by , what could of been will never be

We can walk away , regret , keep quiet

Its a safe place in the dark , in the place where

we cant be hurt or seen

Don't hold your heart still , a heart is meant to beat

Take a chance , it might just be destiny you meet Cynthia

Mosaic

He is a Mosaic

Sharp in contrast

Shades of bright blue
hazed

Clear and mirrored images
broken bits , heart shaped

Bonded to a strong frame

From a distance plastered pieces
of who he appears to be

Only an illusion

Close examination
reveals he is ever changing

being shaped

smoothed, Growing

filling others rooms with light

my delight

I LOVE HIM

He is valuable to me

A collectors prize

I can only hope I appear similar
in his heart
in his eyes

Shout

Three men stand on the
street corner

Brick Buildings , broken
show their age

Graffiti ads talk of a new day

fliers in the wind tattered sway

Murals brightly painted with
loud voices scream

a man sleeping back up against the plaster dreams

Black Door
White Letters Bold
PRINT SAY
DEATH TO THE KKK

Market Street / Belle Vista , Philly

Hangin at a corner cafe

Hot breezy day

Brick buildings dressed in
murals and graffiti tags

Canopies covering fresh fruit
and vegetable stands sway

Tattoo sleeves , artist palette calves

Sharing coffee , stories , smiles, space

Illumination of emotions on each face

International tongues , accents sing through
speech spoken all around

City Workers in big trucks pass by
rattling the ground

cars circle the block trying to find somewhere to
parallel park

Dogs sit with their owners , waging tails , never bark

Written for Michael Ari Admani, GROWTH

You are a musical note that sings of new days and glorious things,
the past is that one hit wonder ,
sometimes it plays in your head ,
but there are new songs to sing,
new lyrics to write as life moves on ,
its feet to the beat toward Marvelous things

A Smile Wide

I forgot what it felt like to laugh inside,

to smile wide ,
to look upon a face and see it shine ,

eyes wide

looking with awe back at me
taking in each moment

as if they were all his , all mine

as if it were always meant to be

THE KISS

The Kiss , it was fire , it was a sensation traveling here and there,

it was a rip , a tear in all those long years of wondering when, where

Pondering Days

Shall i look into tomorrow as if its already here?

Shall i glance at today as if its already gone,

Should i fear all my yesterdays have not yet come?

Played

She was the music he heard in his head ,

it caused his emotions to turn every which way ,

it caused his heart to race, it caused him happiness , it caused him heart ache,

the music which was her essence left in his head continually played.

Hot as Hell

sometimes you just erupt into fire and smoke ,

life gets so thick it causes us to choke,

the wind is still, the water well dry ,

red as embers , hot as hell ,

billowing out , emotions flow.

Soul Wrap

I was kissed in the pouring rain, i was told i was beautiful, my artwork was admired and my reading of my poetry heard and adored

time was irrelevant it passed as if there were no time only us. Two souls converging on matters of really no importance except to share

two souls clinging to the other because having just that moment was having eternity. Wrapped tight heartbeat to heartbeat mind to mind.

Our arms were a shelter , his and mine

Always

it was as if they had always been,

it was her skin , it was his ,

the curves winding , moving , entwining,

he was hers , she was his ,

looking into each others eyes

How do i know i love you

How do i know i love you

I think about you all day until it hurts

I get so upset with you sometimes and just talking to you ruins my day
(because i just want you to understand something and it
it seems you never will no matter what i say)

Then after moments of intense emotions and silence seemingly with no end , you pull
me in, you know my ways, you tell me you do understand
and love me , everything will be ok

I miss you so much that the thought of never again hearing
I love you from you or feeling your touch makes me so sad
and that moment your in my sight i want you so bad

I hurt when you hurt
I want to cry when you cry

when you get excited and your face lights up
I am glad for you
I never want to see that shine leave your eyes

I know i love you , because no matter what
without you is not where i want to be

Without you , i feel so incomplete

Where you are, is where i want to be

you , me

Rubbed Red

eyes red, cheeks redder

tear stained handkerchief

missing his touch

missing him so much

The Sexiest You Can BE

For anyone reading this that may be male, do not tell a woman you love her and hope that is all it takes,

she needs to be chased, she needs to feel those words, she needs to know without a doubt she is the world you want to live in,

she should never be made to feel other women catch your eye because she wants to believe she is what your eye longs to see,

she needs to know this every day, not once a week, when she needs to talk about her day and you really do care about pedicured feet, just listen, just care, be that best friend she needs you to be,

because a woman , a woman like me , for most women , this is what they need, this is what turns them on and is the sexiest you can be

True Love

When someone loves you , really loves you , you will be their everything, not their take when needed, because true love does not lie or hurt or push aside for temperary pleasures, true love is the pleasure that you only want from that one person and no one else will come inbetween that

Break Free

How do you stop a heart that is loving,

how do you stop its beating the constant waves of emotion from flowing, how do you stop it from always needing that one

but breaking from the knowing,

it will never be

how do you stop a heart that is loving , needing to break free

lullabys and love songs

sing me lullaby's and love songs

sing to my soul

sing away my sorrows

sing about better tomorrows

sing about you

sing about me

sing about happily ever after, the way its supposed to be

sing to me in the morning , sing me to sleep

All She Knows

he was the wind that whisped through her hair
he was the warm sunlight on her back
he was with her always, always there

She loves him

he though flawed was her diamond in the ruff
he flowed through her veins sometimes
ice cold

She loves him

he brought her to a place that no one else
could every go
he brought her to sometimes her greatest lows
he brought her , no matter where it was , it is always where she wants
to go

She loves him

This is all she knows

treasure

Being filled with someone , being touched to the core of your being , feeling that what was once empty is full, this is what we all seek, this is what we imagine, sometimes we think this is what we have found, sometimes it is , sometimes it is only an expectation , all i know is that finding it , it would be the greatest treasure found.

The Dance Sublime

He was her beginning
She was his end
Where one started the other
finished and the dance began

With him she felt alive
She was what pulled
at him constantly from
within his entire being
from deep inside

Her hands above her head
Their fingers entwined
Looking down at her she looked up into his eyes
The dance sublime

He gently led as she followed
slowly he pushed forward
They moved to the rhythm of desire
Their love for one another
a blazing fire

Kiss

White tank top, shoulders bare in the sun, freckles scream to be kissed, including all the other places you missed, which would be everywhere but my lips

Crushed

Heart beating , please drown the sound of the way it pounds, then the churning inside , anxiety sleepless nights, screaming silently , wishes wasted on things so sweet but never tasted, hands grow old reaching out for hands they'll never get to hold.

You were and are my extraordinary

Every moment can seem quite ordinary then without warning one moment comes barreling in and when it hits you it being so extraordinary stays with you every day. You are that moment.

You are my thoughts

You are my thoughts
You are what crosses my mind
You are my hopes and my dreams
The day Your Heart found mine

We are and were ment to be
I love you and always will
I for you , you for me

Heart to Purr

Your cologne caresses my senses as my cheek
lays on your pillow

You'll be home soon and here i will be
waiting and you will know

that all you have to do is whisper in my ear
to cause me to stir, my heart to purr

I am yours

A letter to the Death of Love

I find myself so lost without you
I find myself yearning and longing for the cool breeze
for the sunshine , for the song birds sing
all things you are like for they
are felt , but unseen

how do i make my heart stop this nonsense baby i love you so much

Sweet Sleep

It is in the darkness we meet
You walk softly through my thoughts
You fill my dreams and we are one
in between the sheets

It is in the light of the moon
where your arms pull me close
it is on the back of my neck i feel your breath
and im tickled by your nose

It is the song of crickets stringed feet
a frog symphony
with your chest to my back ,
we wonder off to sleep

Linger

It was the thought of them
It was what she remembered
young flesh, fresh

It was the thought of laughter
they once shared
silly sayings, tickling while
wrestling on the bed

It was the thought of two minds
always thinking about the other
two bodies caressing under stolen
covers

It is the thought of what was found
love that pierced soul , forever attached
even when most of it was ripped out
that small piece forever young like their love
and never growing old

Everything I Longed For

When our eyes met , in that moment, i knew
I knew everything i longed for I would find
in you

When our lips touched , moist as dew
Fire and flame, and I knew
everything i longed for i would find
in you

When our skin caressed, chest on breast
Wanting to be filled by you, as desire ran
through my veins, I knew
everything i longed for i would find in you

Hair

leg on top of hip, toes touching toes
my head on your chest, my hair a wild mess
tickles your nose

Yearning

It is the heart , it longs to feel another heart beating
It is the heart , it longs to be needed
It is the heart , it longs for forever with love that is true
It is the heart, my soul , that is yearning for you

Stay

some people come into your life and touch it in a way that keeps that touch always a part of you, losing them is like losing a piece of you that needs to be found

The Visitor

Yesterday afternoon I went to visit my lover the sea

I drew names in the sand of friends and twitter family

I was greeted by a stranger, much older than me

His hair was white , his face was smooth and kind

We call his folk, snow birds , and we look forward to their
migration, showing it is winters time

He asked what it was i drew in the sand

Facebook, myspace, twitter what was this, he knew not of these
cyber lands

He didn't have a screen name , but told me he was Ray

He wasn't a photo with an expression stuck face

We talked for a moment , we shared our thoughts

No character limits , no annoying bots

Back to my carving names in the sand ,
we said our goodbyes

Without following, blocking or reporting for spam

Fuzzy

The fuzziness of my blankets don't compare to the fuzziness of your chest

My nose is tickled by the hair there , then there is your warm skin pressing
against my tickled breasts

Your arms hold me close as if losing me was your fear

With you is where I want to always be, your heartbeat the one I
always want to hear

Cynthia Harris

His Presence

it was his face she saw when she closed her eyes at night

it was his arms she envisioned holding her tight

it was his breath on the back of her neck she could almost feel

it was his warmth , his presence she hoped one day would be real

Cynthia Harris

Tonight i am spreading my wings, trying new things

It is time for soaring for flying high, touching the sky

My words are my emotions, waves in an endless ocean

It is now time for them to spread over a waiting shore

It is time to release them, for there is with them , so much more

Cynthia Harris
