I dreamed...

I dreamed of us last night

Us being you and me

 It probably
 Was because

 You had been on my mind all day

 To the point where I could feel you

 Like hot comb grease on my scalp

 I could feel you like heart palpitations

 Causing shortness of breath

 I could feel you like empty pockets

 With nothing left to give.

 I dreamed of us last night

 And we had a cream colored backdrop

 With a splash of red hot

 Multicolored polka dots

 Stained the walls

 If I recall

 These were the colors of our world

 The hues were an unusual mix of sunshine and moonlight

 We took flight

 On cloud 9, 10, and 11

 I think we were on that stairway to heaven

 So many talk about

 I never did doubt

 You being there with me

 Your presence was as necessary

 As nourishment for my body

 i dreamed of us last night

 and I remember trying to give you my heart

 but you already had it

 and you placed it next to yours

 it lures me in your direction

 right at the intersection

 of your street and my avenue

 where our rides collide

 but this is no accident

 there are no dents

 in either one of us

 but we exchange information

 the creation

 left at the scene

 resembles a mosaic masterpiece

 at the least

 breathtaking

 taking breath from me

 is a usual occurance

 for instance

 you walk by

 I see you

 Beautifully breathtaking

 Making me forget how to inhale and exhale

 Until I am dizzy

 My hearts sign reads busy

 Occupied

 My feelings are implied

 No questions required

 I dreamed of us last night

 And we had no baggage weighing us down

 We had obviously skipped town

 it was so good

 Like shackles off my feet so I can dance good

 Like bluebell banana pudding ice cream good

 Like smothered chicken, macaroni and cheese, greens, and peach cobbler good

 Yes that good

 We are boys in our hood

 Cuz I am your ride or die chick

 But we are also poetic justice

 As our differences mesh

 Into a poem that refreshes

 Your soul and mine

 At the same time

 I dreamed of us last night

 And your brown skin glistened in the sun

 When it met my brown skin and they became friends

 It was then that they blended together

 Causing a fusion greater than the union

 In a glass of v8

 I equate

 It to destiny

 You and me

 Me and you

 Us

 From dawn to dusk

 And back again

 My yang to your yin

 A whirlwind

 Of emotions

 And at the same time peace

 that never sleeps

 surrounding us continuously

 and its magically

 delicious

 auspiciously doing our own thing

 we bring

 notes to the pages of the song we write

 and at night

 we recite them

 in my dreams of us
