DEAR YOU... BY MS. 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
