of u





until now.

until i heard
the softness of your voice
i never heard music.

until i saw
the brightness,
the warmth of your smile
i never saw beauty.

until i felt
the heat of you next to me
i never felt needed.

until i smelled
the light floral sweetness of your perfume on your body
i never smelled passion.
until.

& until
the sweetness (until
now)       i
tasted of you
your sensuous full lips
have i kissed before you.
and until you i  have never lived

About Me

My photo
First of all, I love GOD. Proud Christian here! I love the smell of baked goods, seeing dads with their sons at the barbershop, couples walking down the street holding hands, I love my friends and their kids and their dogs and cats and my cats. I love poetry, jazz, old school R&B, Hip hop, Gospel, House, architecture, writing, and baking. I love compliments about my baking, I love Paris, Scarborough Ontario, Latino culture, nappy hair, and the sound of kids laughing. The first thing I do every morning after I crawl out of bed is get on my knees to thank God for letting me see another day. I invite you to join me on this journey on this thing called Life, where you might laugh, cry, and perhaps be enlightened along the way! I might be enlightened as well, based on your responses to my posts. For collaborations: daij62@gmail.com
