"DEAR YOU".. BY SHAMYRA KENDRICKS

Dear you....

As the rain hits the pane of my window The pain of the distance between us is very real to me
But so is the love
Yes love
I love you still
It is in the still of the night
I quietly, silently
Reflect on the memories
Of you and me and drift into slumber
Awake into daydreams of me and you together
I want to hear your voice


The rhythmic timbre of the masculinity
Of the hum of my name on your lips
How I miss your honey-dewed kiss

Dear You
I Love you still
I smile wide
And my eyes brighten at the mention of your name
And yes, oh yes
My heart skips a beat
As I journey down memory lane back to you
Arms, strong arms that held me
And sheltered me from the sting of naysayers
Who spoke against our togetherness
Opposites do attract
The pomp and circumstance of artificial relationships
We bypassed and relied on tried and true love

Dear You
I love you still
I can’t get you out of my mind
Make no mistake I have tried
Seconds into minutes
Hours into days
You are imprinted upon my heart
Like the DNA that maps me to my father’s lineage
And denotes me as his child
Dear you
Make no mistake I have tried
Emotions running wild

I love you still

BLESSINGS.. BY SHAMYRA KENDRICKS

Blessings..



"I emasculated him
with what I called a Blessing
showered him with gifts
took care of him, paid his bills
got him out of debt
kept him out of court and laws of his back
cause that's what a good woman does
So I thought...

cause that's what momma did
cause she saw her momma do it
but my blessing was a cursing
and it was worth nothing
because he walked away from my purse strings






to her and far so far from me...
Because the truth was
everything I did proved I could do it
without him

I could handle my own alone
and that I didn't need him

beside me
and that caused him to do the one thing
he didn't want to do
cry
see he would die for me
look me in my eye and lie to me
he would bleed for me
drop his seed for me

his seed in me
but cry
he needed to be needed
and being with me
depleted his male being

his self worth
his manhood
because I was
I N D E P E N D E N T

and he pleaded from his inside
to be who God created him to be
a PROVIDER

he wanted his place back
and now my heart stung
from the ache
of the break
from the pain
of the stain

of the tears on the pillowcase
on his empty side of the bed
because I emasculated him
with what I called


Blessings....

    BLACK WIDOW

Picture
                                                

"I'm of the night
Hourglass shaped
Charming and gentle
But if you dare disturb my web
Or dare to misuse me
I'll expose you to my macabre activities

Entangle you into my web
Perform my mating ritual
Triple inject your ass
With my poisonous venom

Seductive kisses to the back of your neck
Landing you flat on your back
Paralyzing you with my poisonous bites
Yes with those kisses you like

And I'll seductively kiss you
Again and again
Then nest above you
As my venom
Brings you
To your dying end"
