From Journal Past Blast... My Perfect Lover



This week's Journal Past Blast entry is the first real poem that I ever wrote and liked. It was written during my first year in college – when I had my first real boyfriend. Anyway. Here it is.


My Perfect Lover

Cast over me the
shadow of your
fine black skin

And provoke my anticipation
with visible glares
of inspiration.

Intrigue my mind
with the passion
in your heart.

Beat your ambitious vows
into my love’s chamber,
accelerating my life’s rhythm
to a thunderous, eloquent melody.

Brush not ungranted wishes
upon my lips, but ignite
the blackened hopes of
my love’s –, disparaging
only the temptation
to forever illuminate
the glow of one lover’s night.

Whisper into my ears
the desires of such satisfaction
and ease secret nightmares
of history’s sexual deceptions
engraved                 as tokens
in my burdensome heart
that only now is pulsating
from your flaunting pleasures.

Lessen now the fire
of our passion flared in rhapsody
and remain once more
in your love’s soul
so that we may discover
an incarnate, as such, as
My Perfect Lover
