I think about you
Even though you
Not here beside me
And
I still think about you.
I think about you,
Your smile,
Your lips,
Your deep brown skin,
Your sexy almond shaped eye
And
I still think about you.
I think about you,
From time to time,
When I’m doing me hair
Or putting on my lip-gloss,
It’s hard to let go
And
I still think of you.
What I love about you
Author: Luciana Cousin
Fleeting thoughts, a need for more,
Ever present, and yet out of reach.
After all, I have achieved….my life is complete.
My family, my boys, and a life.
But then the whisper faintly stirs a passion that lies deep within my soul
And while my voice is silent, my thoughts are loud.
Conflicting thoughts, is it right to want more
Beyond just being ‘a someone elses’,– wife, mother, daughter.
‘I am blessed with what I have’; I whisper back,
‘I must be grateful for this life although it is not really mine’, I whisper back,
‘I know there is much more to me;
That this is simply a fragment of the essence of me’. I whisper back.
‘I am not ready yet’, I whisper back.
The whisper is hushed for a time
But the whisper finds ways to make me heed;
It kindles neglected emotions and revives forgotten feelings,
And childhood dreams.
And it steadily guides me to the point of ‘what if?
‘But I am not good enough’, I whisper back,
‘It is too late’, I whisper back, ‘to become me’.
The whisper breathes into my soul, and ignites an inner strength,
And for a moment I can see the woman that is really me.
‘I am scared’; I whisper back, ‘what if I fail?’ I whisper back,
‘I cannot do this’ I whisper back;
‘Do you not know my role in life and it cannot be just about me’. I whisper back.
‘Stay strong, stay true to you’, the whisper echoes through my soul.
And as I grow in self-love, self-esteem and self-respect;
I find my voice and stand up tall, I make a difference and explore
Beyond the boundaries that I set a long time ago.
The whisper in my soul inspires me to accept that I do not need
The praise and criticism of others in order to succeed.
And as the whisper filters through the core of who I am
Empowering the woman in me, to inspire, to achieve and to love
Myself and who I am and who I will become,
‘I am humbled and in awe,’ I whisper back.

Time will bring a well end of our trial
One day there’ll be no remnants, no trace, no residual feelings within you
One day you won’t remember me
Your Face will be the reason i smile
But i will not see what i cannot have forever
I’ll always love you
I hope you feel the same
Ooh, You played me dirty
Your game was so bad
You toyed with my affliction had to fill out my prescription, found the remedy
I had to set you free
Away from me
To see clearly
The way that love can be, when you are not with me
I had to lead
I had to live
I had to leave
I had to love
If i can’t have you
Let love set you free to fly your pretty wings around
Pretty wings, Your Pretty wings
Your Pretty wings, Your Pretty wings around
I came wrong, you were right
Transformed your love, into like
Baby believe me, I’m sorry i told you lies
I turned day into night
Sleep til i died a thousand times
I should’ve showed you
Better nights, better times, better days
And i miss you more and more
If i can’t have you
Let love set you free to fly your pretty wings around
(maxwell)Pretty wings, your pretty wings (x4)
(repeat)Pretty wings, your pretty wings(x4)
Pretty wings, your pretty wings (x7)
I love you way you walk,
the way you move.
It seem to move me to want to
walk beside you and share a
moment with you, but as I
stand here watching you stride
that’s almost graceful and elegant
but yet masculine and beautiful and
your smile seem to brighten up
my day and those eye
seem to send butterfly
all through me, brother,
brother do you even
know what you do to me.
I love the way you walk,
the way you move,
me.
What I love about
By Mos Def
I don’t wanna write this down, [world… premiere]
I wanna tell you how I feel right now [world… premiere]
I don’t wanna take no time to write this down, [world… premiere]
I wanna tell you how I feel right now, hey [world… premiere]
Tomorrow may never come
For you or me
Life is not promised
Tomorrow may never show up
For you and me
This life is not promised
I ain’t no perfect man
I’m trying to do, the best that I can,
With what it is I have
I ain’t no perfect man
I’m trying to do, the best that I can,
With what it is I have
Put my heart and soul into this song [yes yes]
I hope you feel me
From where I am, to wherever you are
I mean that sincerely
Tomorrow may never come
For you and me
Life is not promised
Tomorrow may never appear
You better hold this very moment very close to you [right now]
Very close to you [right now]
So close to you, So close to you [your moment in history is right now!]
Don’t be affraid, to let it shine
My Umi said shine your light on the world
Shine your light for the world to see
My Abi said shine your light on the world
Shine your light for the world to see
[I want black people to be free, to be free, to be free]
My Abi said shine your light on the world
[Want black people to be free, to be free, to be free]
Shine your light for the world to see
[Want black people to be free, to be free, to be free]
My Umi said shine your light on the world
[Want black people to be free, to be free, to be free]
Shine your light for the world to see
[Want black people to be free, to be free…]
