nile-eyed conquest

It’s whenever I start to think you might be drifting a little
that you make doubly sure I know you haven’t gone anywhere.
Your arms might not be home
but in addition to the supple throne you provide
They’re quite a nice place to visit.

Now that I’ve figured out how to do this dance with you,
I’m surprised to find it more suitable to my speed.
Who cares why you’re here or how long
For the time being
two souls are invested in enjoyment.
Right now, I just want it to be about that.

And if the reason is to make me remember how beautiful I am,
I’ll take it.
And if this season is just the Spring time,
I’ll make it.

And if it’s meant to be a lifetime,
Well.
You know me and my independence.
But I’ll do my best not to run…

or at least if your heart ends up in my hands
It won’t be me who breaks it….

About the Author

My name is Love refers to the poetic expression of my Yoruba name. Literally it's closer to "I loved her since she was in my belly" or less crudely "I loved her since she was created". Poetic translation, "loved since conception." Which is fitting because when I love, that's how I love. This blog is a personal recounting of all the things I love, people past and present, places, things, hobbies, life.
