Soulful Voyages - Jhene Aiko Poem

I have journeyed the continent in search of something to freeze & ease me

When thoughts persevere to kill me, that voice recuperates me

Inspires me to place my flames in a bottle

I have dived into your music a thousand times

It’s my Mary Jane to my everyday pain

To be specific, you’re a Pacific, Sailing Souls

I could drown in your musical ocean and feel your emotion

Whenever I Sail out, I reach out for your waves to take me Higher

We could never Grow Apart like the sand & the seashore

Your music is my seaweed, soon the globe will see your seaworthy

Perhaps fall in love and you’ll take off like a seaplane

A diamond in a well, I’m high off your zeal

Your petite eyes are a hip hop bridge where lyrical angels dwell

A dynamite about to blow, don’t let them dim your glow

Stroll on the seawalk, Souled Out

Jhene Aiko 

My Love For You

I feel like you’re accusing of cheating with this fleeting reality

My life is a handful hook

Clinging onto educational mazes & social love

This tight tangible rope is testimonial to the theatrical joy

We’ve ever felt

Your linguistic eyes make me melt

You’re all I’ve ever wanted

And subsequently keep me sturdy

When I’m with you I feel a rush of passionate warmest

When I’m with you I feel heaven even though this life is hell

My immortal thoughts during doldrums stroll towards you

What would I do without you?

Long before I saw metaphors submerged in mountains

Or dreamt of wondrous whimsical worlds

I was all alone in the mundane playing field

Like an unimaginative Poet

Beauty is you

You dress, act and feel like it

I’m aware our connection has wandered off into a powerless performance

But the tiger of your tongue

And luxurious language can flatter the audience

We’re both afraid because things are touching grey

Even though, we’ve been destined for Gold

I love you from infinity and back

My love for you is soo deep it would make the ocean envy

My love for you Poetry, is a continuous universe

He is the last of the dying breed; he has spat out his pride.

Swollen his ego

Ripped out his heart and placed it on paper

A sun storm struck the gentle ground

Nostalgia eats away the flesh with the could’ve beens, should’ve beens, would’ve beens

Grey gloomy gust gazing at this gorgeous girl

Exploding inside, bursting with words to say

Loathing at anyone who will capture her before me

Ambivalence and anxiety holding me back saying

Don’t do it, don’t say how you feel

I’m not speaking in circles when I say I want you

But I can’t have you, even though I want you

I hate the idea of someone else having you

It’s like a thunderstorm pulsating my heart

Leaving me burnt apart

To me

You’re a nirvana, a chocolate Madonna

I don’t want no other Belle donna

I have spun my mind around yours in hope

Of transcending your perception of me

Maybe my passionate web isn’t enough for you

And I’m not good enough for you

Torturing myself over the fact I can’t have you

I like you soo much it hurts

I’ll rip the butterflies out of my goddamn stomach if that’s what it takes to forget you

My ego is swollen and my confidence is bleeding

Seven is my weakness

Six is you &me and how we will never be

One was all I ever wanted

One kiss from one girl

This girl

One relationship

The possibility of never finding a soul similar to yours

Burns my soul

Maybe I’m taking it a bridge too far

But I’m bored of basics, I live for the spectacular

I know you bury your sorrows in your laughter

You think deeply and don’t share much after

You hide in your shell and trust yourself

Because you can’t wrestle love, don’t want the psychedelic

And your eyes speak voluptuous vocabulary

I like you soo much it hurts

Seven is my weakness

This is not a Pinocchio

This gets my waterworks

Like a watershed

Everything watered down

IFHY - I Fucking Hate You

I’m undergoing, showing weakness

Deep dark voices uttering commit suicide

'' Do it, Do it ''

But this is your fault

You blew it, blew it

We had something soo promising and precious

Your lofty alter ego sledgehammered it

Ruined it, are you happy now?

Something that seemed soo perfect

Disseminated, washed

You brainwashed me, caused me

To succumb to your misleading ways

I’m internally broken down

Weeping in my dynasty, feeling gloomy

Grouse, grumpy

Gruelling, talking gibberish

Generally gutted, but I’m guiltless

My gusto, my guy sold me a lie

I’m gullible and grasping for air

Trying to figure it out

Stressed out

Depressed

How can love be soo erotic but make me feel psychotic?

Reality has burnt me alive

Reality is about to drive

Me

To the edge of the earth

I thought I was your golden goddess

I fucking hate you

After everything we’ve been through

You had to break the ice

And have your cake but eat it twice

My heart and mind are tearing each other into pieces

Simple soul with disintegrated pieces

You want it, you had it and you lost it

Well good luck

I used to be babeless and fearless

And had soo much happiness

But look what you’ve made me become

I’m looking at my inner errors and fighting mirrors

Losing myself and hating myself

Hurting myself and blaming myself

I haven’t slept as of late and I can’t think straight

Procrastination is my daily excite and I haven’t got no appetite

Look what you’ve made me become

I fucking hate you

My life is a mess; you’re a loch ness monster

I always thought I could trust you and I had you

There was something in you that I saw

Love is a holy war, you tore my fucking confidence

Told me to drop a few pounds or we won’t last a few rounds

Told me to desert my friends, I was playing pointless pretends

Told me to wear this and that, I felt like a fat cat

I nearly gave up everything to be with you

Just to please you

And you never once appreciated it

I fucking hate you

You haven’t got a clue, all the misery you’re put me through

I got a lion in my heart, I’m lying

I got flamethrowers that can spew your heavenly organs

But I’m not as pernicious

I’m more marvellous and generous

Conscious to conscious, skin to skin

I’m stuck with your soul tie, explicitly from within

Years may run by, but mentally you’ll find me

How do I get rid of something that’s inside me?

I fucking hate you

But love you really….

Sex with a Famous Poet

Mind blown

Heaven dwells on your luscious lips

As soon as you walked into this room

You put my heart in handcuffs, cardiac arrest

You seem to have the powers to bring luminosity to my darkest hours

One magic wand and my world could be superly sexy

In the back of my mind, we’ve dated a thousand times

In the ancient times

In the past life, ask fate

Destiny is you & me and you have a date

You can put diamonds around my neck

Give me the best chocolates in the world

In an open roof Aston Martin

But that won’t arouse my inner vibrations

As much as being read sincere poetic metaphors

In a foudroyant tree house, encircled by woods

Forests, lakes

White swans and white tigers

And your mesmeric mesmerizing

Hypnotizing deep dark voice

Sounds like

A stiff pen masturbating over dope rhymes

Bombs are like beautiful people

And you constantly do nothing but blow me away

You’re every girl’s fantasy, reality, ecstasy

They say love is another form of insanity

And heaven knows I’m crazy about you

So toss me against the wall like a bag

Aggressively kiss all the roads around my neck

Run your fingers down my collarbones

Do it softly and gently

Handle me like you’re handling your PlayStation controller

But fuck me like you’re riding a Mexican bull

We don’t need linen sheets & red roses that go up the stairs

We can make love in the kitchen

On the sink, on the dining table

On top of the work top

Just undress my conscience

Strip my thoughts off naked

Leave love bites on my innocent nipples

I’m in Paris with your eyes

Kiss me until we reach a century

Whilst I undo your trousers

'' Oh my God, is that your colossal cucumber '' !!!

You hairy horny, cocky corny

Sexy piece of art

Mind blown

I want to hide inside every shiver

That sends Goosebumps erupting in your thighs

Leave wet tattooed kisses on your thighs

You’re angelic and aristocratic

They’re soo many fishes in the sea, but you’re better than these piranhas

I want to eat out your lasagnes

Make you scream LOUD, Talk that talk, that’s rated R

Like roaring rihannas

Let’s have sex and call it Iconic Art

Your moaning musicals is Mozart to me

Bring your ear near, so I can Shakespeare

A pair of explosive whispers

I’m your dirty Duffy, your amazing Armitage

Your lively Wilde

After these metaphors have penetrated into your divine soul

You shall give birth to our daughter

Name her, Poetry

Mind blown

Born Sinner

Nothing’s ventured, nothing’s gained

Nothing feels right in this infinite world

This life is a strict teacher

Everyday i turn the page in this examination

Am i here for material possessions or spiritual virtues?

Or to hide behind a metaphor, what am i here for?

Half way out of my mind, half of me is malicious

Vicious life, harsh life

Half of the kids on this troubled estate

Are baby daddies, yolo dons, college fuckups

A black blossoming flower raised in dirt diamond dirt

Grew up in insanity, struggled in poverty

With no dough to show, felt depraved and low

It’s a dog eat dog world, I keep digging myself into a horrible hole

Fell in love with a whore, a broad

And I couldn’t afford, temporary pleasures

She was a rough rider, i was a sensual kisser

I made power trips to see her, which were an arm and a leg

Distance was a bitch, but I knew she had that golden glow

To drag dark stones that were submerged in my crooked smile

I keep securing my spot with the devil

The devil is intelligent

Bad sweet sins feel soo good

But yet soo wrong

I’ve got to repent a marathon, that’s soo long

But what’s the point if I’m going to do it again

I guess I’m just a born sinner

My home was hell, fell down 7 times down the stairs

My alcoholic abusive step father

Slashed, whipped and beat me

Strangled, fought to kill me

At times i felt like God didn’t like me

My sweet sins were not roses, i saw myself as twisted thorns

My real dad died in a car crash

I was soul shattered, soo lost and soo gone

A black blossoming flower, raised in dirt diamond dirt

I hated the night time because destructive thoughts

Would haunt me and torment me

In all directions, trouble followed me

Left, right and centre

The demons in my psyche wanted me dead

The hood put a lucrative price on my head

Girly ghosts under my bleeding bed were my imaginary friends

The silence would whisper tortuous pain

And all my life i was infatuated with shining lust

Thinking it was eternal love

Broke promises, broke hearts

Slept with many, trusted none

Sold some bricks, brought some ice

Told sweet nothings, handed over some dreams

Walked with regret in my pocket

My surface, solid, hard as a rock

But deep down in my valley i was dying a thousand deaths

Deep down in my heart, I’m a fighter

Released the pen’s pain like a writer

Self hate ran through me, so I burnt myself with a lighter

 I keep securing my spot with the devil

The devil is intelligent

Bad sweet sins feel soo good

But yet soo wrong

I’ve got to repent a marathon, that’s soo long

But what’s the point if I’m going to do it again

I guess I’m just a born sinner

At times i felt to runaway but where would i run to?

Boxed in the land of the snakes

Friendship fakes, family fakes

And all i had was poetry

Only she knows what’s right for me

She was there for me, when no one else was there for me

Been through soo much at a young age

And she was there to soak in the words on the page

I guess I’m just twisted thorns repenting for ravishing roses

I guess I’m just a born sinner

Read between the lines

It’s an error how I was born in this era

Ahead of my time, like I’ve seen my future before

Made some mistakes, I’ll possibly make some more

I’m sinfully good, like an angel with demons

Painting a picture with words, a poetical Picasso

Travelling solo, not influenced by yolo

I don’t need to fit in; I don’t need to wear polo

Addicted to fatal attractions, material distractions

Narrating to God my sins, Qiyamah is around the corner

Generator to generate, elevate, motivate this generation is needed

Embedded behind these covers is my dark side, my love side

Labyrinth of thoughts, emotions in a maze going through a faze

Abandoning temporary things, adopting a long term mind set

Set up my trust to be sceptical of everything

Me & the mirror have mutual differences

Searching deeper for the soul of the man in the mirror

Punishing myself with criticism, faults & terror

If you dig deep into my poetry, you’ll find diamonds

Gold minds in these gold mines

Treasures to distract the scars

I’m two clouds away from the stars

Dreams imprisoned in a cage is my fear of failure

I’m rough around the edges, fighting the shackles of laziness

Mind is a closed warehouse full of craziness

In a perfect world with imperfect people

Imperfectly understood

Thirsty for knowledge but high on lust

Tired of living in this matrix

Tired of making effort with effortless

Worth soo much more than worthless

Put my Foot through the door, they will adore

My leg in the end will make me a (legend)

My circle gets smaller day by day

Praying to the lord everyday

Through thick & thin I’ll find a way

A world living off promises sold by professional liars

I don’t want sweet sorrows, just friendly fires

Black on black romance, my eternal desires

Real is just not real anymore

Dishonesty is everywhere, trust isn’t here anymore

Fornication everywhere, love is just not here anymore

Ignorance is everywhere; knowledge is just not here anymore

Read between the lines

My poetry is deep like gold mines

Read between the lines

You can’t put me in a box or veil me behind these blinds

Read between the lines

It’s you that I want, mind, body & soul

Can’t you see my struggles to obtain you as my lifetime goal?

Read between the lines

Time is my enemy, my inner me is battling my other me

What I love soo much is killing me

What I yearn for soo much is confusing me

Opinions couldn’t begin to define me

My heart defines me, truth hurt me

Fate has me, chasing success verily

Trying not to panic, I’m a hopeless romantic

Hopelessly out for quality & respect

Expect me to make a mistake

Take me as I’m, what you see is what you get

Read between the lines

More than a woman

If canoodles could make everything better, I would give you tongue tied trillions

I don’t think you understand what you mean to me

The world only see’s your inner broken mirrors, but you’re beautiful to me

I don’t care about your size, I don’t care about what media emphasize

The average Joe would possibly try to change your image

But you’re beautiful to me

Nobody seems to understand the picture you paint, but you’re Mona Lisa to me

Everything about you locks me, locks me up deeply

Your intelligence sparks a revolution within me

Your words smoothen my mind like a metaphorical massage

Every time you compliment me, my head explodes into tiny little flowers

I know your past was bitter sweet, tears of molten heat

But I’m here to prove to you, I’m different

I’m not a smoker or a drinker, just a lover and a thinker

I don’t do groupies; I’m hardly with my male friends

My feelings are never buried, I keep honesty on display

There is no doubt, whenever I look into your enchanting eyes

I see a fabulous future with you

There’s soo many fishes in the sea

But none of them have got that certified material for me

You’re the only chocolate mermaid for me

You steal the show, you win me over

I’ve never met anybody who can shake earthquakes in me

Earthquakes of ground breaking happiness

And my happiness is golden

My mother called you '' precious ''

That’s a sign, in a few years to come sipping on that wedding wine

Remember when, we were troublesome teenagers

And how I brought you those expensive flowers

We would talk for many hours

All those sleepless nights, pillow talks, jokes & laughter

I used to think you were a mystery in a maze

I was your secret admirer with these ambitious kisses to kiss you 

I never saw you as an imperfect person even through your smile was a disguise

A disguise to hide your deepest scars and lies upon lies

You went through hell and roads nobody could tell

Paths nobody could sell, like a freedom fighter you made it out of that cell

Your courage, your strength, your energy

Is beautiful to me

If I can’t make your heart azonto and make your butterflies twerk

Then my efforts are in vain, they won’t work  

It’s a chaos catastrophe if I’m not your king in the kitchen

Your homie at home, your Shakespeare in the sheets

Your kisses speak erotic heavens to me

Your sex game is narcotic Nintendo’s to me

You’re weird, wild and wonderful

Educated, funny & beautiful

It’s a poetic problem when we’re both poetically turned on

On fire, wet Fridays and romantic fire

You’re my one and only desire

Better than all of these basic birds

Basic bitches, you truly have me lost for words

More than amazing, more than a lover

More than a woman… 

Aaliyah - (Birthday Tribute)

I'm tired of writing 4 page letters; God has got to let you out of heaven tonight

I was wondering whether we could have a red candlelight dinner

Just you and me

No cameras, no extravagance, no fuss

This ever growing bond, nothing can come between us

I feel like Romeo when he first met Juliet

It’s not fair that the good die young and you were among those on flight

Scattered and breaking into pieces

If you hadn’t taken that plane, who knows? What destiny could have had in stores?

Soo angelic and heavenly

In my mind, in another life, you were my wife

And you wore a white dress with white swans dancing in the ponds

White limousines parked outside, white pebbles and white pearls spread across everywhere

Pure, perfect and precious

America misses you and the world is asking about you

Your voice soo touching, blooming and beautiful

Baby girl, it’s your birthday and I’m infatuated with caressing you poetically

Softly & romantically, smoothly and calmly

You’re more than a woman, more than an artist, more than immaculate

Let’s leave heaven, dress up, I want to show you, your present

It’s a shame on mother earth, you’re not present

Your fans, friends and family all anguished over there

You’re standing over there and I don’t know what to tell ya

My eyes go in lust, you look lush, luxurious

Voluptuous and scrumptious

Seeing you is a fetching luxury

A girl like you is one in a million

We salsa dance by the Susquehanna

Back and forth

We need a resolution before you go back to your heavenly home

It’s been lovely, your lovable, my lover that loves to be loving

Queen of damned, Aaliyah disappears

Like Trish and Han, Romeo must die
