I want a love like Me thinking of you Thinking of me thinking of you type love Or me telling my friends more than I’ve ever admitted to myself About how I feel about you type love Or hating how jealous you are But loving how much you want me all to yourself type love Or see how your first name just sound so good next to my last name And shit I wanted to see how far I could get without calling you And I barely made it out of my garage See, I want a love that makes me wait until she falls asleep And wonder if she’s dreaming about us being in love type love Or who loves the other more Or what she’s doing this exact moment Or slow dancing in the middle of our apartment to the music of our hearts Closing my eyes and imagining how a love so good Could hurt so much when she’s not there And shit I love not knowing where this love is headed type love And check this, I want to place those little post-it notes All around the how she she never forgets how much I love her type love And not have enough ink in my pen to write all there is to love about her type love And hope I make her feel as good as she makes me feel And I want to deal with my friends making fun of me The way I made fun of them when they went through the same kind of love type love Only difference is, this is one of those real love type loves And just like in high school I want to spend hours on the phone not saying shit And then fall asleep and then wake up with her right next to me And smell her all up in my covers type love I want to try counting the ways I love her And lose count in the middle just so I have to start all over again And I want to celebrate one of those one month anniversaries Even though they ain’t really anniversaries But doing it just ‘cause it make her happy type love And, check this, I want to fall in love with the melody the phone plays When none of us dialed into it type love And talk to you until I lose my breathe She leaves me breathless But with the expanding of my lungs I inhale all of her back into me I want a love that makes me need to change my cell phone calling plan To something allows me to talk to her longer ‘cause in all honesty, I want to avoid one of them high cell phone bill type loves And I want a love that makes me regret how small my hands are I mean the lines on my palms don’t give me enough time To love you as long as I’d like to type love And I want a love that makes me st-st-st-st-stutter Just thinking about how strong this love is type love And I want a love that makes me want to cut off all my hair Well, maybe not all of the hair Maybe like I cut the split ends and trim my moustache But it would still be a symbol of how strong my love for her And check this, I kind of feel comfortable now So I even be fantasizing about walking out on a green light Just dying to get hit by a car Just so I could lose my memory Get transported to some third world country just to get treated Then somehow meet up again with you so I can fall in love with you In a different language and see if it still feels the same type love I want a love that’s as unexplainable as she is But I’m married, so she’s gonna be the one I share this love with(I absolutely love this poem if any guy can recite this to me I would ask them to Marry me) <3

I Have Not Posted In A While
When it comes to people and their beliefs of bisexual women , I find that either they think it’s a phase or that it’s just like being gay… Well it’s not. The way the media and society has framed this valid category of sexuality has really skewed my own perception of myself…
Just last January (2011), I came out to my mother and the first thing she said was, “I wanted grandchildren”. I don’t know if she just did not understand the term of being bi or if she just thought I am attracted to females, but somehow she made it equivalent to me not wanting children or being attracted to men, as well. Since then we have had vague conversations, and I have been told she is waiting for me to get out of this phase. I don;t think she understands how such a comment hurts. It was hard enough me trying to hide my attraction to females and trying to pass myself off as straight. Plus, it doesn’t help that she’s African American. She refuses to let my side of her family know, and believes it will have them question her parenting; which they already do because she married outside of her race (my dad is Puerto Rican).
Moving on from that aspect, my friends at first found the idea as hilarious. Mainly, they saw it as funny because some expected it and others were confused and just teased me about it. However, it pissed me off when some of my acquaintances (male, generally) saw it as some type of promiscuity marker. All of a sudden, I was receiving offers of three-somes and being asked can they watch as I have sex with a female. It pissed me off so much, I had to completely tell-off one of my male friend (we are no longer friends). People just don’t understand this sexuality.
The media makes us seem promiscuous through having love triangles, and then in other media like porn, men just see us as sexual desires. It’s wrong. People need to stop.
That is all I have to say…
I am bisexual, no I don’t want a three-some, No it is NOT a phase, No I am not stingy, and I’m happy…

Clarification of My Sexuality
I have a dream….that one day we will chase education rather then status
I have a dream….that one day we will not kill each other for shoes
I have a dream….that one day we will look inside of ourselves for answers rather than blaming everyone for our problems
I have a dream….that one day we as African Americans will not segregate amongst ourselves based on complexion
I have a dream….that we will stop replacing the Slavery of Whips & Chains for the Slavery of Whips (cars) & Chains (Necklaces)
I have a dream….that one day we won’t refer to ourselves as Males and Females with a term used during Slavery and a term that means female dog
I have a dream….that one day the expectation for our Women will not be for them to have children outside of marriage by the age of 24
I have a dream….that one day we as a people will start to hold ourselves to a higher standard
I have a dream….that one day will start today

I Have A Dream… (In Honor of MLK Day)
Slouched and proudly erect to the 6’3 posture
Of an awkward stature
Of a light caramel toned fixation.
Widely almond shaped piercing warming beautiful
Deep sienna brown hued eyes.
Atheltic build without the bulk of arrogance
To alter the shy amusing nature within
The fixation of a Cherokee warrior.
Almost black curls softly wave unruled atop of the skull
A bushy crown holding in
The knowledge and sincerity of the prince.
An opening to show the ivory beheld cave
Where the sounds that come out are of angels
Soft reassuring demanding confident all the same
It curves up
The cave, and opens too
Radiating enamoration with a touch of excitement.
Sending shivers
Through every atom of its cause
The cause being love
The love being me
For he is my fixation
And together it is we…

(DLB Series) Enamoration of He; April 28th 2011
Bite my ear
Kiss my neck
Touch my skin
and caress my soul.
Take me down to the river and baptize me with your fluids
Let me swim across you ocean
Journey on top of your creation
Make me be yet a tik in your tok on your clock of passion
Grasp my flesh to comfort your mind
And take your time.
To make me
Limp
Fall to the bottom of the Earth to see your length
Keeping you safe within me
Tightly gently in me
Moving in all direction as this connection
Cannot end.
Where does your body begin
Where does mine decend
Into your own
We are sewn.
To make another thing clear
This will not last all year
I only want this thing forever
To be finite among the clever
And infinite among the feather
That cushions my head upon this structure
You call a body.
I am so shaken that you cannot awaken
A better passion
To clinch onto your own prgasm
Because my mine is just starting
Allowing my digits to clinch onto
Your flesh like bamboo
Never breaking as much as I bend
And shiver becuase your end
-lessness I mean
Just allow me to hover above Jupiter
As the motions crescendo with every murmur
Of my dialect you cannout conquer
As it is of foreign tongue
Just like the one
You fantasize what will become
Of this night
And then I’m done
Spewing onto the vessel all at once
Like soup on a hot stove
ooooooo
Thank you ;)

The same fog
The mist of remembrance
That moist warm feeling keeping me safe
Haunts me
The view of it from afar
I shudder
Because the time for it, it hurts
The memories kill me
My skin crawls
It creeps with emotions yet to be released
Can it stop hovering over my skin like morning dew?
Let it evaporate with the sun’s rays
It refuses
The fog remains
The sad thing is I would not know what to do
Without it
As it haunts
It is comfort
And even though I need to release it
Never will I
As it appeases me too much to hold on

(DLB Series) Familiar; April 26th 2011
My mind to have a constant convulsion
Caused by the struggle between
Caring and moving on.
As mush as I care
I cannot
I must kill these deep rooted intertwined feelings towards you
They are staring to lynch my heart
And suffocate my soul.
No longer can I smile when needed
You took that with you
You hid it within your 6’2 frame
From my 5’4 body
Knowing I cannot touch the top of your head flat footed
Teasing me for I hope I had
Of returning to your heart.
Now all I can do is drop to my knees
And wail silently into my knees
Hiding the streams of saline tears falling from my oval
Dark brown eyes
Across and down my yellow and rosy face
Past the downturned creases of my full pink lips
As I cannot fathom that you culd be so
Indirectly cruel.
Even though I want to blame it all on you
I cannot
I have to blame myself
As it is my emotions, my thoughts, and my inability to move on.
You did not cause this pain
I did…

(DLB Series) You Cause; Feb 23rd 2011
The more I try to dismiss you
Erase your figure from my eyes
Kill your voice from my ears
And drown your emotions form my heart
The harder it becomes.
As all I do is reminisce
I reminisce
And that hurts
I lost a friend as much as I lost a lover.
You helped me through so much
Before we kissed.
Maybe I should have never took that motion
A flutter to touch your lips upon my own
Now we barely speak words
From your mouth to my ears.
My eyes cannot lay upon your figure
As you hide form them
And it hurts.
I cry because our connection was genuine
Not sexually
But mentally.
Why did I act on the urge
I cannot fathom this.
I hurt so bad
I cannot even stand to see you with another
Never was I the jealous type
Until you.
Until you I was bottled up
Hiding from everyone’Until our late conversations
In the five comforters you needed
Under the stars and so easily spoken
I miss that
I miss you
I miss us.
But I have to forget it
Or I won’t move on
Cannot move on
For you see right through me
And would be there if I needed you.
Yet now we are starngers
It hurts But we must be dismissed from my memory.

(DLB Series) Hurt; Feb 23rd 2011
The melody of the overture
The one that played
As my mind wandered to play images of us
You the one that made me drop my gaurd
Open my emotions
The ones I learned to hide from all
But you.
Now I perch myself upon the floor
Alone
Listening to the beats and wanting the images
To be true again.
Yes, I miss that
As you could see I will never tell you
You will not accept my opening up and I will turn around
Broken Lost Confused
The music continues
But we do not
And it’s surreal when I though
We would keep playing on repeat
Like the song does
On my iPod
And all things end
Like us…

(DLB Series) Repeat; Feb 5th 2011
They lay comfortably splayed on the twin bed
Thrown sheets and comforters
With a sprinkle of pillows
Surrounding their body
Awake they lay staring intently to the television
Perched upon the clutered dresser
The one in which her wristbands
Her rings and his own would lay before they slept.
Now he is the one on the bed splayed wholly as one
She sits behind
Behind the dresser of an oak complexion
On the tile floor
Not whole but as a part of what used to be.
The cluttered room that once resembled organization
Presents itself as a true mess
Frustrating her soul
Irritating her logic.
But then again, emotions are not logical
And it’s those feelings
That skew her view of him
Take everything he represents and makes it an irritation
As all these confusing states
Want to join with his own
And be one once more…

(DLB Series) One; Feb 5th 2011
A mirage of times
Of places and events that took place
Play on a continuous loop in my brain
Are they real?
Did he kiss me so sincerely
That allowed me to smile from my toes to my last hair follicle?
Did he act so much like he was mine
Keeping me close and in constant warmth?
Or did I imagine these scenes?
The ones of us just taking siestas on the bed
Sleep arm in arms at first and waking up splayed apart
Where I caressed your forehead
As you proceeded to tickle me knee so randomly
Yes, I guess so
Because there is no way
You should be so distant towards one you shared such moments with
So I will take these mirages
The ones that sadden my being
Because they are not true when I want them to be
And hide them.
As this thing I see as what we were
Is a figment of my imagination…

(DLB Series) Are They Real?; Feb 5th 2011
Elude the thoughts of the figure
The one that put a smile on your face
Gave a sensation of a fireplace across your heart
Eased the nightmares like a lullaby by Grandma
And left hope in a daze as if God was the sun’s rays that kissed your skin.
That figure.
The one that now resembles the ghost of Christmas future for Scrooge
The serial killer of every hope and love particle in your being
Stealing the Cinderella fairytale you wrote
And leaving you to fight the inner battles of a broken heart alone.
Let it elude you.
Don’t understand because you never will
It’s not as easy as it seems
But try.
Keep moving and let the mystery go onto someone who is willing to comprehend the figure’s inadequacies
Quit the job of loving it
Give up on its religion
And break the laws of their creation.
Fly up until its fiery hot and then cold
Reach absolute zero
Freeze the thoughts and never let them thaw like you would dinner
This dinner shall never be cooked or reach the mouths of others.
Let the figure become a fog
Let the fog dissipate
And then you can live.
Allow the figure to elude you
Move on without comprehension.

(DLB Series) Elude the Thoughts; Jan. 30 2011
Eyes peer at the other
Dim lights and vibrant beat enwrapping them
Distance between then
Nonexistent.
Slight curves towards the sky
Moves across one’s face
The other responding similarly.
Humidity envelopes their pores
Adding moisture to their skin
And they begin to lean to another
Slowly leaning
One up slightly
The other down.
Their lips touch
With the humidity and vibrance of the environment
Backing away
Their eyes peer once more.
One lacking the emotion
A lack of caring and interest in the other.
The other with more of each
Until comprehending the other’s blank stare.
Quickly turning away
Their heart stops
The humidity turns to tears
And they know what needs to be one…
