I am, Barry White? In your dreams!

Filed under: poetry, mphutlane wa bofelo — ABRAXAS @ 7:13 pm

Your can move on my dear

No need to look behind

All you will see is your shadow

Do not stress your ears sweetheart

The quietness you hear is for real

Do not listen to your whims darling

There is no whistle calling you back

There are no footsteps behind you

The voice in your ears is not mine

That melody you hear is the hiss of the grass

Maybe it is echoes of the rhymes

I once weaved especially for your ears

You can dance to their beat if you want

A smooth groove and a rhythmic shuffle is no harm

As long as you know these are songs from the past

I am sure you wish I had a mellow baritone

To serenade you all night long

With a sonorous melody

Saying if you can not lie on me

To lie to me will suffice

But no matter how watery

Or lemon-dry they might be

I find nothing seductive

In lips too loose that they utter love for just

Unlike Barry White I believe

You can only tell a lie if you live a lie

& most certainly I profess

Only no love in the self and belief in nothing

Nurtures the life of lying

I am sure you still cannot believe

I was able to see your heart was inside his bosom

While your hands toyed with my prick

You may want to know

How my ears could discern

Your cry for him to come inside you

Behind that serenading hum

Urging me to come like a thunder

It was that sweeter than always

Melody of your tone

Your voice like the bard’s

Talking to a person’s heart

Actually speaking the song

Of every lover to any beloved

I will tell you how I came to know

Your mind caressed someone else

Whenever your fingers

Played piano on my body

You were given away

By that gaze as deceptively seductive

As the moon looking like

It is smiling with its looker

While in reality it is

Glowing for everybody
