Dearest Love




It seems you came to me
like an angel from God's bosom
saving me
from my own mind
of entrapment and loss
my dearest love
When I see your face
I smile
your voice finds a warm place
in my soul
I rise again
to be strong and vibrant
my dearest love
What words can provide
thankful feelings
you saw love in me
when my reflection
was empty
my dearest love
I awakened to fly again
to move
towards higher heights
afraid that I must move on
move forward without the one
who nurtured my spirit, loved me dearly
my dearest love
my love for you will never cease
but has changed
I will leap
without holding your hand
or needing your touch
but my heart will be towards
you always
for you are
my dearest love

inspired by the ending of a relationship that blossomed into a strong friendship

My "education" at home with my mother, at school, on my neighborhood playgrounds, and at church, all placed males in the middle of the universe. My digestion of the 1970s American popular culture in the form of television, film, ads, and music only added to my training, so that by as early as age nine or ten I saw females, includ

If I was your girlfriend

Yeah, another Prince discussion. This man has saved my soul through the years. A follow Prince fan always refers to Prince as the ultimate "pimp". He speaks of how smooooooth Prince is lyrically. I came across the video for "If I Was Your Girlfriend," taken from the Sign of the times film. I started gigglin'. Prince IS a pimp. So clever. Witty. Smooth. Just runnin' game but damn, I'd fall for it. The title alone would get me..... IF I WAS UR GIRLFRIEND - PRINCE
