Black Poetry : Memories

Hmm
Seems as if they should just be a blur
Yet the more I think of the memories
The more vivid they are as if it was just yesterday
The crush
That I had
And thought was past
Keeps
Infiltrating my mind
Causing confusion
Making my heart awaken to thoughts of you
When we were young
But in my mind the memories
That I see are not of us in our youth
But we are very grown
And grown enough
To do what
grown folks do…

you see that crush
has turned to passion
causing me to envision
loving you
beyond how you have been loved before
for my desire to love you
is not bound in the physical
no..anyone can love you that way
but I want to love you
mentally
emotionally
spiritually

for if I can love your soul
then I can truly love your body
Loving you
In a special way
That causes time to stand still
The kind of love in which
The season of Summer
Asks to borrow
The heat of our passion fire

Yes I want to love you
Even though I realize
I have no right
Yet my heart
Has created a chamber
In its recesses
Reserved with your name on it
I know
That you may have other suitors
And that is not my desire
For suitors come and go
But soul ties are forever

And so my memories
Have forged ahead through the annals of time
And have burst forth through the present
Letting me know that
They are a part of me
Forever and always
And therefore I let them
Never looking back
Never regretting
Just moving forth
Being honest
With what my heart
Craves

And what does it crave?
Look into a mirror
And you shall see the reason
My heart continues to beat…
