Magnetic Attraction






















It has been a minute before a man caused this kinda reaction
Chemical that is .. butterflies, magnetic attraction
Open ur mouth to speak, ur being is the ultimate distraction
So the words pass me by, but somehow, lovin’ the conversation

This Magnetic attraction, it’s a scary situation
All i’m doin is reactin, actin out in my imagination
Mind canvas is a slave, ur face is the master
Painted, imprinted, like stone - seems like forever

This Magnetic attraction, was not my selection
Ur spirit, ur be-ing – now a source of confusion
Magnetic polarities, the yin and the yang
Lord, transcend me to oneness that i may free from this man!

From a far off distance, came my admiration
Now the spaces between are in slow recession
Now u’re near me, I feel I could run, outside of ur perception
Never thought this desire would reach manifestation
I’m hoping you remain in my wild imagination
Just pass me by, for my own sake
For fall – i will fall, for this temptations’ too great

So endearing to me is this masculine creation

So worthy and divine to me this masculine creation

Daddyyy





He is a gift unto the youths

He has given them the experience / in-sperience of deeper Love they been missing

He gives them sweet honey the queen bee doesn’t have means to give

The father they dreamed of

He is a good person, good man

He is theirs





For Him or for Me?


Am I trying to punish him?

Maybe after all is said, and done
I just wanted him to feel the pain of betrayal
I wanted him to know how it feels to have your great achievement come crashing down
... Because your Lover is not strong enough ... doesn’t love you enough!

Ohhhhh, the pain!!
You know how it feels to hurt in a place you cannot touch?!
Cannot soothe?!
Then , have to forgive - you must forgive! 
... the way I forgave!!
 
And, what if you don’t?
You'll fall into the pain of holding too much inside
Then rise to the pleasure of projecting it out..


You must feel it ... all!!!
You must hurt and cry and cry ... cry again!

What if the plan backfires, then who have I hurt?
I don’t mind hurting him - I WANT to hurt him!

Subtly it’s clear, though, I’m also hurting me
Hurting the unborn baby growing wombside
Moreso hurting even the innocent girl I was, 
the little girl who continues to live inside ...

 I stopped being the best woman I could be 
the day you stopped doing the best for me
The day you stopped being the best man you could be

"Can't let you get the best of me!"
"I de mek him suffah!!"
 Yet, the Goddess whispers to me, to breathe, let it go
Give my best for the sake of Love
For the sake of Family
For the sake of Me
For the sake of Inner Peace

My desire to punish him continues to linger - just not at the expense of our unborn baby

Woman get u some, let it out!!! Lest the pain, anger fester n spoil you inside!

My Love Growing Inside Me

I have my Love growing inside me
My womb is a powerhouse, a creation plant
I am so content with you, Love
Satisfied that you have chosen me
So long ago... so long before I even met him
Long before I felt prepared...


I told you, the Universe I was ready
It was my strength's edeavour to squash my fear
Maybe I am not ready
And neither is he

We are not happy in this relating
I don’t want you to be a part of it
A part of the fights, and arguments over nothing
Name calling ... finger pointing ...
emoting and not lovin...


I want you to feel the Love of a father
I want you to learn from a man to be a man
I know you chose him, but he mightn’t be around?
I want only the best!

Baby, as a man, u must understand,
I need to feel like a woman
I need to feel loved and protected...
Be provided for


And, as a person, you must understand, I need to feel love unconditionally
Loved for me, Loved as I am
You do not need to work to receive Love
You don’t need to change yourself or your partner for Love
For Love just is

For Love is our very essence, the air we breathe
And where you cannot breathe [Love] - there is no life
No breathe, No inspiration
No God, No Goddess
No Love, no Life, no Peace, no Joy

You, my boy, deserve all the above ... and more
My boy, forgive me, I let you come now
It is my fault I opened my womb and made that choice
Baby, please forgive me
We will be reunited when mama sorts her relations out
When mama elevates her energy and what it attracts
When you and your sisters have a house to call home
Community to call family
Love that is steadfast

I am taking a life, so that I may gain one
Hurting my Love so that I may heal mine

... Yet, one question remains, steadfast in my brain
... why can’t I give YOU the Love I so deeply desire?
So naturally deserve?
?!?!?

My Love or My Fear



“What is happening?” is a question u often ask
“I don’t know” is often my reply
Mad mad chemistry, I can’t deny
Attraction, magnetic and wild

Yet something inside me cannot let it slide
Something inside me tells me to take my time
Time is what it takes ...
more so if this isn’t right in Jah sight

Is it the love or is it the fear of mine
A beautiful vision or deception of d eye?

I love you even if your God is not mine
I love you even if u complicate my mind
It fails to understand;
My heart is the guide
- My heart and only a part of my mind

I no longer know peace in this time
No peace in this place, no peace of being or mind
The peace which I cherish, peace naturally mine
In parenting, in loving, in growing ... no longer mine

I been waitin’ for the fallin’ of the dime
Waiting for that moment he will let me down
Waiting for him to hurt me and crucify my love on an altar of manly pride
I’m waitin’ for him to forget me in a foreign town

I fear he is young, and a follower, not a leader to his wife
I think he my king, then think he’s not my kind
He is too wild to live my kinda love, life
He’s too blind, I can much wiser find

And that is why I can’t have his child
Not while in this turmoil can I carry a life

I have been pushed in the deep end by this love
The darkness of the mystery is my only light

I love him, I dunno why
It hurts me I wanna cry
I regret so much, I fear it’s all a lie

Probably our differences will kill what hasn’t died
Only the truth can open our eyes

I’m trembling, worrying - what’s ahead for you and I?

But in the meantime,
Jah give me the insight
.. to live, love, at peace in these times
If it is love, let it be mine
Let me drink and get drunk off this wine
But if it be lie
I thank God for the opportunity 
to share love and life so deeply
So intimately, genuinely, and blissfully
I thank Goddess for the love, bliss, laughter, smiles
The fathering, husbanding, advising, music, differently thinkin

Deep down inside
He is royal and divine
I just wish he knew this as I
Knew the God tree - for he is the vine!

But often these insights escape his mind
He forgets his place in space-time
Forgets the space he fills in our lives
The life of a young gunner in love with a young mother
1 or both of us must change for this to union to strive 
... for the other

Squaring The Circle


Sometimes I feel enslaved to a persona
Sometimes I feel trapped in cycles and circles

I’m back where I escaped from
I left this man...
Now he has a new face...
A new name...
A different persona...

Oh, but I am not fooled
I know he is the same man!
He needs me to take care of him 
He can’t completely be a man at this point in time...
He promises,” baby girl, I’ll sort everything out
At another time...
In a future place...
In a distant space”
 I m tired of living off of promises
If wishes were horses, beggars would ride
If I had a penny for every man who promised me love, life and everything else

“I want to make you my wife”
“I love your girls!”
...They’re just words!!!


A tree is known by the fruits it bears

This cycle of taking care of others instead of my own
This habit of loving man over children
Exposing children to lovers and all the shit that comes with them
This sabotage of showing my independence – which makes a man relax
Then start asking for it, using it, depleting it
Here I am, broke again,
Spent more than I earn again
Not by me!
Not my kids!
But by a man!
... a goddamn man!

Seemingly never-ending cycle
Round and round in circles

I am tired
And even tired of being tired!

I step outta the circle
Bend it into a square
Escape thru the curves which slip, slide and spiral
Into the measurable, finite, defined, redefined

My break thru
My freedom

I’ve recognized shadows in the night-time...
I’ve shed my tears... in sorrow, confusion
I’ve bit my nails, ground my teeth
I’ve cussed it and I’ve cursed it
Done better for the children...
I leave it behind, squared now ... no longer bending forward to face me

One thing finite and sure, well-known and true - this, too, shall pass
My pain leads to freedom
This too shall pass
