Piano Man

Piano Man
Sing me a tune
Make it slow and heart felt
So that when I close my eyes I can see notes
float
up
towards
the
sky
Lift me up with your song
Brighten my day with your smile
That same smile, old friend, that I've not seen in a while
Whether it be something like the blues
Or even a tad bit jazz
Something to make my toes wiggle
Or that will make me shake my
ass
And if you're feeling rather gracious
Give me good old R&B
I want to snap my fingers to something
Yeah, I know you're feeling me
Piano Man, where's the music
I've got my ears so open and wide
There's something I've been missing
Since I crossed over to the other side
I cannot put my finger on it
Seems like there used to be a new song every day
I suppose I must have been to busy
To sing the songs of yesterday
But now I've got a duet playing in my heart
So I need music for our team
And you know that if you write the music
Then we'll write the song to sing
And I'm just hoping that all's not lost
And that you'll play for me again
It's not too often that I come out to be seen
But I will for an old friend

Presidential Suite



I finally made it to the Presidential Suite


On this heavenly bed


Got the richest complimentary chocolate laying on the pillows


I taste it one lick at a time


So bitter, so sweet


A treat I'm sure to keep


I'm told it will melt in my mouth


Not in my hands


But this man


Makes me melt so quickly


I'm watching for a cold front


To blow through


But this heat wave's got me sweatin'


Sweatin' him in the darkness


Sweatin' him in this hour


Sweatin' him sweatin' me


From the bed, floor, counter, and shower


And then back to the bed


As I melt in his mouth


And then in his hands


Until our chocolate lays


It's melted bitter sweetness


On the pillows


On this heavenly bed


Inside of the Presidential Suite

Worth


 


 


Greatly seen are the material things


Expunged are the essential values that survived


Long ago


Slain by killer eyes who justify worth


By the name brand


And not the power in a firm shaken hand


Not by the sweat on the brow of a hard working man


Impressed by the come up and not the climb up


Settling instead of striving for more


Than the towel that replaces a throw rug on the floor

Step Family

Step Family


 


I took your name and you took all of me


Even though I didn't help harvest your seed


I helped to form our family


And we will raise every he and she


Until they are grown


And no longer in need


Then it will be us


It will be we


I'll pull you up


And you'll carry me

First Impressions


http://www.usblackart.com/Categories/Harriott_Tubman.asp


First impressions



Is this real?


How can this man know


Exactly how to make me feel


Like, how does he know how to


Hit the spot


Right there


And lord knows I'd been looking


Damn near everywhere


He loves to slow grind


And kiss me from behind (on the lips)


Until I begin to make the sheets rip


And then he gives full kisses that are like poetry or old R&B songs


And looks deep into my eyes


Saying that even though I'm Hpnotiq, he can Hypnotize


Me, and tells me to slow it down to a pulse


He never rushes it


Always takes his time


Does it nice and slow


Makes me lose my mind


But that was just first impressions


Wonder why it never stays so sweet


Cause now that he's got me where he wants me


He ain't trying to keep up the heat


No, now that he's got me in the palms of his hands


He is lazy with the details and the flow


Like he's got somewhere better to go


There is very little foreplay


And licks are only for lubrication


And I can't stand the frustration


And now things are in deliberation


Because I realize that all we had was first impressions


And the good times we shared left behind no representation


No kids, no ring,


No plans for those things


I guess love don't live here no more


So give me the keys back to my door


And the final impression


Will be your behind


Being careful not to let the door hit you where the good Lord split you


Back into the world you go


Never to waste my time anymore.

My Favorite Pair

You fit me like my favorite pair of jeans



Fit me like a glove and snuggles close in between


I never get tired of your texture


No matter hot, cold, dry, or stormy weather


Nothing can come between us



No one else can even compare


From the soles of your feet to the tip of your hair


You are my favorite pair


Favorite pair of eyes


Favorite pair of legs


Favorite pair of hands


Favorite pair of ears


Favorite pair of feet


Fits me so right, especially in the seams


Especially on the rear


Especially when you're near


Especially in between


Especially with nothing between


You are my favorite pair of jeans


I love to wear you commando style


And whenever I have to take you off for a while


I am naked in the world


Don't know how to be nothing else but your girl


Couldn't imagine changing brands



You're my throwback


You're my vintage pair


You are to me Jordache with the horse on the pocket


Causing me to smile whenever I see you


Making me realize I'm grown


Keeping me aware that I'm not alone


as long as I have My favorite pair

My Name

My Name






I am a woman


Can you see the curve of my waist?


Doesn't matter if I'm black, white, or blue


You see the softness of my face!





You see the cushion of my breasts


No matter what the cup size


I'm proud cups provide nourishment to children of world


With each breath, don't you see them rise?





Don't call me out of my name


I ain't your dog, your hoe, or your nig


I ain't no bitch or no cunt or no trick


Better recognize who you messin' with

Love Fullfilled

wrapping my arms around him i realize completion


Copyright ©2007 Attica Lundy

This is Love

I never was introduced to it before
Never knew a kindness of this sort
Always wanted to touch a soul
That would be the other half of mine
Now I know what what it feels like to smile
All the time

I always fantasized on how it would feel
To be a part of a lifetime goal
Never wanted my dreams to never come true
Always knew that I'd find you
And that love would find me, too
Forever more

This is love
I know it has to be
Because I'm smiling
Even at times I should not be
And I'll be damned if I let you go
I'll die first, this I know.

When I walked down that isle
And I saw you standing there
My heart did flips and smiled
I told my Uncle "look at him, that's my future"
I didn't worry about anything more
This is love

Commitment, honesty, and truth
Conversation, and more when we said "I do"
I feel God smiling on us, I know he's happy that I changed
From a little girl into a grown woman
Who lives to feel his grace

There's no rhyme or forms
This is not a poem
It's what I'm feeling right now
And what I've been feeling all along
We're happy together, completing each other all through
I love and am in love with you

Outspoken Lover

I was told that the nature of a woman was to lie

Never talk about her true feelings, to always keep them inside

Always be soft spoken, take insults like someone's joking'

And be the softness that a real man needs…

Well, I'm sorry I can't be that way

Sorry, I don't know words to say

To make things sound better

And it won't get any better

This is who I am - I'm stronger than most

I got babies that look up to me, sisters that need me to lead

So take me or leave me, that is your choice.

Before you decide, please hear my voice.


I can be all you need

You could really count on me

And that is what matters-not what society thinks we should be

It won't make you less than a man

To tell them you understand

My position on things

And the joy that I bring

To you

Taking you to new levels you didn't know existed

Remember how my tender kisses were sensual, so hard to be resisted

You laughed cause I'm bossy and so I insisted

That you stay through the night – and that felt so right

And how even when you stomped your feet

I laughed at you and turned up the heat

And you were putty in my hands

It doesn't matter if they understand

But it doesn't matter because they don't have what you need….

Baby.


It's not about what they think

Only matters what our love brings

Only matters how we feel

And that we know this love is real

When we are alone, the world doesn't exist

Only our two heartbeats and the softness of our kiss

And you and I both know

Haters will continue to throw

Out all their negativity

But close your eyes so you can't see

All of their jealousy and all of their games

Just shut out the world and know that your place

Is here by my side

No matter what life brings, baby, I'm gonna ride

Its us, do or die

And I'll never desert you – Always be here for you

Just like you are here for me – saving me, giving me what I need

I'm so glad I found you, so just let me love you

The way that I know how to do.


Shut out the world, and let love be our earth.

Surrender

I could have loved him from afar-but I took a chance
I told him my true feelings, not just what I thought was the right things to say
And I bore my soul to him-not knowing if it mattered
Told secrets that could have changed his view of the "me" he was falling for
For I'd already fallen in love and just wanted to put it all out there
Sometimes the truth can be so very scary
If you haven't been the you that you know you should have been
We all fall short of glory
But nobody wants to be naked with no armor
But for him, I stripped it all down
And in my nudess skin
He took to me and showed me a love unlike any I've ever known
And sealed it all with kisses that were so much more than a pinky swear-but the same faithfullness
And so I gave him, in return for his unconditional love, my heart
