rrweb-TaimLast Words

the last piece to the puzzle, where my mind collides with the body
a short draft of the poet’s craft, another book completed
i’m on top of the crescent moon, looking beyond the stars
a balmy past drifts away at last, so here i leave my mark
from the first page to the last, i have bled my soul clean
experiencing the epic beauty in every moment ‘n’ every scene
i have screamed with love, ‘n’ cried in justice, my words bind me
my heart ‘n’ spirit come alive as i let these rhymes define me
never hard to speak my being, out into this existence
speech completes my poetry to heal me of all sickness
my novel of therapy, where my medicine lies within one stroke
the moment my ink hits the paper, my pen slides down the slope
on a flow of verbs ‘n’ adjectives, descriptions wet with liquid
depictions raw with sex ‘n’ flaws, my madness becomes fluid
i choose to be lucid ‘n’ i choose to get drunk with dreams
for here is where i truly feel real, cuz i’m the master of my everything
a secret is instilled in my poems, one which cannot be explained
all you can do is open ‘n’ feel, ‘n’ let the emotions rain
contained in my heavenly wish, i grant you the freedom you seek
you must believe in the words you breathe ‘n’ in the passion that you leak
to become the love you stand for, you must relish in yourself
gather up your lessons in life until your soul starts to swell
then once you’re at the brink of tears, put your pen to the page
unravel, unleash, confess ‘n’ weep until you have nothing else to say
contained in this tale, is ALL of that i have been
ALL that i will ever be, here lies a new beginning
with the end of another chapter, i pack up my mind ‘n’ go
knowing that i’ve left no page unturned, once again free to find my flow
so to Po, Music, Jezzie ‘n’ Giggles, ‘n’ to my new fond bliss
to my muse or two who have helped me drool what love truly is
i leave you with this, a simple sigh to the universe
poetry has allowed me to live this life within each rhyme ‘n’ in each verse
here, i gave birth…

these are my last words…
