“Very rarely do I go by the norm of what is expected of me
You see I blaze a trail because I was born to be free
The words spoken over me I cast aside like a rag
And give myself new meaning, new purpose, new reasons to brag”.
These words I speak I see spew forth from your lips
As you sway gently in the wind with the slightest hint of a sway from your hips
You, my friend were never meant to be tied down, labelled or broken
A spectre you are, born free, a poem meant to be read not spoken
Like a caged animal, powerful you are
Prowling restlessly waiting for your dreams from afar
See them now in the gleam of your eye
Your vision reaches to the sky
Will you leap and take the chance
Or stand firm and deepen your stance?
Only time can tell
And only YOU can ring its bell.
When first I laid eyes on you I saw more than you could show
A spark, a light a flame and an effervescent glow
Would we be friends? Only time could tell
As the sadness in your soul continued to swell
But slowly you let down the walls of the fortress of your heart
And slowly you let the warmth seep in and do it’s part
Now I bask in the bliss of you and wait for the day
The day your smile radiates from your eyes and not just your lips in that special Neo soul way…
