J M. Basey Poems

I want to get to know you,
Inside and out of your mind,
Most men only want you for your body,
I want you for your imagination.
...

When I cry
I lay myself down to sleep
I pray to the lord that I don’t make that final leap
Over to the spiritual side
...

I think back to all the tears that I‘ve cried
Somewhere back in my childhood my heart must’ve died
For each day I have multiple faces
Most of the time I avoid awkward embraces
...

I know I haven’t been
The best son in the world
But by writing this
The plan is to show you
...

You’re giving him another chance
Promise after promise
Time after time
What is wrong with you?
...

You all know the feeling
The feeling of desperation
Hopefully without the aftermath
Of any kind of complication
...

I’m a thoundsand miles
Away from you
A broken man
Scared of losing you
...

You mean everything to me,
More then this poem can say,
And from you're side,
I will never decide to sway.
...

It's about time I told the truth,
To put you all in the know,
About how I feel,
So here I go,
...

I'm just a normal guy,
Yet here I stand,
In a country in turmoil,
Get me out of this forsaken land.
...
