Jasmine Brinkley Poems

Wanting you and being with you
Wanting security and peace
A little honesty
But why for men is that the worst?
...

Yesterday I met a man
Gurl full of sin and a sight to behold and let me tell you
He was worth his weight in gold
When he came to me he spoke honeyed words
...

I come to you with a sirens call
Attraction like a match to open flame
A fire lies dormant and begins to burn
I want to make you see stars
...

Poetry is to every individual as seasons are to the earth
As humanity and life itself it evolves
Grows and adapts to new dialect
Forms with new intellect
...

You say that no one understands you
That I’m controlling you
Like a puppet master pulling the strings
But who hung the strings there in the first place
...

What keeps the people talking?
The same thing that keeps a sinful man walking
Its on everyone’s lips
Ooh girl she did this he did that
...

To crave for a being
So involved and needed
Itching for a hit like a drug addict
Willing to do anything for another fix
...

His tongue laving at my chocolate pebbles
The culinary reference a subtle comparison to the heat flowing through my veins
My caramel skin and honey center
He licked and laved at my nectar
...

I let you sweet talk me o0o0 the way you wove words and voiced philosophies
It was actually my fault because I had a selfish need
To fill this yearning void
To rid myself of this burning blue flame lying underneath the surface
...
