Whispering

Soft whispers in my ear.
Blowing gently, my heart racing,
My body tingling, I laugh quietly.

Soft whispers in my ear.
Speaking slowly, my heart racing,
My body tingling,
I inhale deeply and exhale slowly.

Soft whispers in my ear.
Slow speak becomes irregular,
My heart racing,
My body tingling,
I feel the tremble in your voice.

Speaking in my ear,
You tell me you love me but...
My heart races,
My body tingles,
My body numbs.

Soft whispers in my ear.
You love me but...
Not enough, not enough for forever.
My heart racing,
My body tingling,
My eyes watering.

Soft whispers in my ear.
You tell me you're sorry...
My heart breaking,
My body shivering,
Tears dripping from my chin.

Breathe Him

I breathe in the air as it relaxes me and makes me think of you,
Your sweet scent, the slightest hint of sweat enveloped in the musk of your cologne.
Your perfume soothes my senses, eases my fears and lures me to dream.
I exhale and embrace the thought of you,
Beautiful and carefree
Like a child walking, talking doing for the first time...
I breathe in the air and feel you,
Touching me and loving me,
In moments of innocence
When sleep is the only thing calling you.
Dreams of past days and past thoughts
Succumbing to present times and present thoughts.
I exhale and satisfied,
I wrap my arms around you,
Drawing your body - warm - to mine
Passionately enrapturing all of you,
As if to make you a part of me.
I breathe in the air and stop -
Stop breathing, trapping time,
Freezing the moment that we share
Together and without restraint,
Without prejudice.
A time without boundaries,
Forever to encapsulate our moment,
Unique to no one but one another.
Loving so much...
So much, that our respiration,
The heaving of our bodies moves in sync,
Abolishes our surroundings,
Blurrs our consciousness
And forces us to become one in the moment...
Forgetting, inhaling, exhaling, embracing - loving...

Laptop confidential - People in my neighbourhood

Well, here we go... As we speak, I am in Toronto, my home town, visiting family and friends. I haven't been here for over a year, and Toronto is changing soooo much. Everyone is doing well and loving life!

I decided that I would document all the goings on during my visit with my laptop (no I don't have a digital camcorder or a digital camera - so I'm makin due with what I got). I walked the streets of downtown Toronto for 2 days with my MacBook in hand and iMovie ready and waiting and recorded all the people I met and the places I went. Over the next few weeks you'll see all of my intimate one-on-one interviews of up and coming artists and entrepreneurs in Toronto and New York. Some people you may know, some you need to know - Zaki Ibrahim, MindBender, Sonja Den Elzen, Elicser, Francesca Nocera, Ravi Soup, Saidah Baba Talibah, Kamplex Seen, Lelani Dee, Jamila Malika and Mz. Chawles - my Toronto arsenal and beloved friends, you all made this so much fun. Thank you for your time and for sharing with me... Peace and blessings fam!!
