Poetry And Me

We met a long time ago Under the shadow of Silence Rockies in the defence force of the spirit We went through a rough time of getting to know each other At first, it was awkward fondling each other I didn't have the words to let her know my true feelings She was too shy to show me her erotic side It was through persistence and perseverance that we broke through our incapacitated mental state Actually, we rearranged our mental framework Erased a lot of stuff that hindered the smooth flow of our love We threw out chunks of our egos and embedded prejudices Sliced through painful scars and allowed our emotions to be known We dislodged the congestion inside our hearts Dissected through the solid ligaments of fear And allowed the vessel of our relationship to flourish Poetry was beautiful, artistic and mysterious I was close to my natural self, very silent and meditative Capable of opening my petals and letting my fragrance flow It was not love at first sight Our love blossomed over time It was a step by step romantic adventure that culminated in an explosion of ecstasy A very rare kind of sacred bond holds our hearts together We are very intertwined, our moods closely reflect each other Our psyche is empty of worry and full of positive vibes We have allowed our spirit to be fused It is unconditional Love all the way ©Kenneth Maswabi
