A Single Gals' Lament
|
Posted By: Sun Smith on August 05, 2009 [SUN's (poem)] Wait. I didn't take the bait. I evaluated it and I waited to see if it would turn to me and be what I wanted it to be Wait. I devoured it wholly in my mind fantasized, (and rightly so), its been a long time I can hardly wait Some say its Fate I say its Waste of time Love sublime lulls my memory and as I fall asleep I dream I Wait I can just taste the nectar of love's sweetness I want it I am waiting on it Aint I a Good one? My Queendom exists Exists in the vortex of time The bells will chime and I will get mine Wings, like a memory, will come back to me. I am not waiting in vain. I will not go insane. I AM ALIVE AND BREATHING. YOU SEE? YOU SEE? YOU SEE? You see this world? You see this ugliness? You see this beauty. Its all here and we shall... Wait Catch a butterfly in a jelly jar just one time and wait It must escape to breathe They die like we waiting WAIT. I can race Run but there is no one there. Sometimes we compete against ourselves. That voice tells us negative things. It says, “Time is fleeting.” but Your Hour is coming soon; ignore the evil voices Your best choice is... WAIT Don't take the bait and end up on a plate Even in the bible it says, don't haste. I debate, and I adore, and I create, but never Hate when I see couples smiling together. I am alone-Whatever I am Waiting I am waiting I am God has Blessed my soul. http://www.careerwriters.net If you enjoyed this article, Join BlackInAmerica.com today for similar content and opportunities via email! |

"Sister Moon" Sister moon will be my guide In your blue blue shadows I would hide All good people asleep tonight I'm all by myself in your silver light I would gaze at your face the whole night through I'd go out of my mind, but for you Lying in a mother's arms The primal root of a woman's charms I'm a stranger to the sun My eyes are too weak How cold is a heart When it's warmth that he seeks? You watch every night, you don't care what I do I'd go out of my mind, but for you I'd go out of my mind, but for you My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun My hunger for her explains everything I've done To howl at the moon the whole night through And they really don't care if I do I'd go out of my mind, but for you -Sting Wednesday, August 5th 2009 at 10:52PM |

Amazing Sun Smith...a single gals lament. It took me a moment, but I got it. It resignated with me so, that I was thinking about the things I did not rush into. all because I waited. continue on, it was moving. The other poem by Steve is different. I think of consume by love and lust.
