Tears of a Woman


How my heart cries out for honesty
How my mind longs for the day it can release its deepest thoughts without judgement
How my trust longs to find a loyal safe ear to share its vulnerable secrets with
How I long for the day society will accept me no matter the state
Whether I be strong today or weak tomorrow
No pressure within
To keep up a strong front because the color of my skin
How I long to just be;
Woman in all her splendor and majesty and softness
Her weakness, her essence, her pain, her fears, her tears, her love her joy
How my cheeks seek for a secure shoulder to lay upon
How my body longs for a long comforting hug
From a mature wise loving senior woman
How my eyes miss the day
Where children went outside to play
Games like hop scotch, kickball, freeze, hide & go seek, red light green light
hand games & imaginary friends until just before the street lights came on
How my ears miss the voice of big mama and the candy lady asking what you want, or what flavor frozen cup you want and all the kids reply RED
How my tastebuds long for the taste of coconut cookies lemon heads, cherry clans, jawbreakers & hot sausages with the booty on it
How I long for the day for sisters to stop exploiting
Themselves as the video ho in popular music videos
How I long for the day to stop seeing men reduce themselves to what’s in their wallet & dangling between their legs
How I long for the day to see more families stay together for better or for worse
My soul longs to see fathers connect more with their sons on a heart level
And mothers to keep hugging their daughters even after their bodies start to develop & reach puberty
How I long to see society provide more structure & support for our young people between 9-12 the critical sexual identity stage
Oh how my heart longs to see genuine love and support without the fluff
How I am thirsty for deep conversation, beyond sex, sports & money
How my spirit longs to be free from manipulative believers who accuse
Misuse and ab-use other believers
How I long for the day politicians will truly say what they mean
My intellect screams for the day public education will truly be reformed & everyone
Will stop paying our youth & educators mere lip service
I long for the day of a new awakening within the soul of a woman
My eyes long to see the day a woman’s value is not assessed based on whether she has a man or not
My time longs for financial freedom
My mind longs for sincerity
My body longs for non-sexual touch
My future is tired of seeing me and others using crutches
My now longs for me and only me
My past seeks to be free of me…

I NEED YOU BADDER THAN A HOG NEED SLOP!!!

I am like an addict wanting to go higher & higher in you
My thoughts are being taken hostage by you
I day dream about you
You mean more to me
Than the air I breathe
My love for you is welling and swelling
Within the depths of my soul
There are places within, only you can console
Your splendor & glory my eyes want to behold
I need you
Badder than a hog need slop
I got it bad
To you I make my confessions
This love I have for you is an obsession
I just can’t get enough of you, even when I battle depression
When I think of you its hard to be sad
Or stay mad
Your words have impregnated me with life
You are my essential spice
Without you my life is not right
When I don’t feel you near
It seems like a dark cold night
Relating with you is what I hold dear
You know how to wipe away all my dirty smears
I will love, honor & serve you all of my years
In you I have peace
You calm all my fears
You give me such a release
That keeps me fresh & free
I need you LORD
Badder than a Hog need slop!!!

LET ME KNOW YOUR THOUGHTS, WHAT DO YOU NEED???

TOUCH ME PLEASE!

The very thought can make the tiny hairs on your arms stand up. Touch is the balance we need in life. It’s our yin and yang, our energy conduit, for our growth & development. To touch is to connect. Touch can make one feel secure. Touch can convey a message of acceptance which is what every human wants deep down inside. The right non-romantic touch can keep a girl from pre-maturely losing her virginity. The right non-sexual touch can keep a boy from committing suicide. A loving touch can keep someone from committing a crime. The right touch can keep you from losing your mind. It’s the necessary serum we need for prevention and repairs. Touch can help pre-term infants reach a healthy weight. Touch can help you overcome injuries. When you get a bruise, cut or scrape the immediate response is to touch. Touch can bring about comfort. It can help you make it through some of your darkest days. A touch can say I’m with you and support you. Touch can improve self esteem. A touch can say good job, keep up the good work. A touch can say you can do it, I believe in you. Touch what a gift to give and receive. More non-romantic touch is what the world needs. Touch can bring about peace. The right non-sexual touch can keep a marriage together. Non-romantic touch brings families closer together. If we can just get over our taboo about touch, maybe just maybe we can set this world right side up. Help this world with a little more touch!
