NAMELESS WHISPERS

Written 11 years ago.

NAMELESS WHISPERS

I can't speak your name what purpose would it serve, what would I gain? Yes, I see your name clearly in my mouth between my parted soft lips and my willingly wet tongue...oh it's there, but I can't speak your name.

You find that funny huh? Don't get it wrong. Don't get me confused - cause the reason you're thinking of just ain't true. It's deeper than that.

Second thought just creeped into my mind.

But it's deeper than that.

Third thought just creeped into my mind...

Nah, it still goes deeper. Why am I going through the motions? You know how deep it goes cause you're there too

But I still can't speak your name.

When we're out and about in life. You know, chillin with the homies, hangin with the fellas, coolin with our people of choice --I'll have headquarters on my side, and you ...the friend for the week.

I see you.

I see you.

Man, I see you.

And yeah I'll admit Sometimes my heart does stop. Breathing becomes difficult. My feet are glued and my eyes are fixed - and you don't even know it, but you won't hear it.

I still can't speak your name.

Are you feelin me? Come on secret are you even feelin me? Are your ears even open? Can you even stand to hear it? Can you?

Cause somewhere in the night I thought I heard it. It whispered itself over all that is me. Taking it's time with LOVE. Gentle breezes grabbing my attention in the blinding darkness. Sweetly crossing my face in an endless endeavor to tame the gateways of my soul. Shameless and whole.

Quivers of anticipation eject from my all, but not awaiting what others are thinking. Will others ever catch up to us? We're so way past sex, I'm talking soul......but nevertheless, you still can't hear it.

The whispers are still echoing around my neck, quivers still flowing from my soul, and I'm still. You've uncomplicated me in just one night and you aren't even past my neck....and you say you still can't hear it??

I'm not begging you with words to go any further, but damn don't stop. Discover what you will. Take what you want. Somewhere mixed up in that mystique that is you is my name etching itself in your heart. Darkness can't make you deaf.

How did it get in the air? Between your lips? All over you? God, you've penetrated through the walls, through the guards, through the gates, and I don't care how.......

Let's let the world in on our secret. Let's teach all what true LOVE is. Allow me to tell them who you are, and who you LOVE.

TRUTH OR DARE!

Listen.
I'm screaming it NOW.
Can you hear it?
Of course not.
Cause I still can't speak your name....
