In Time

In Time

by Khari D. Hawke

I scribbled hopeless prayers in my note book 
And you came alive 
I was surprised I seen poetry in your eyes 
So soft 
And wise 
Different from other guys 
Causeing my mind to rise 
Your words 
Was the perfect rhyme 
Beyond space and time 
As smooth as wind 
Passing through chimes 
You were the perfect line 
The perfect metaphor 
Making me want you even more 
Mi amore 
I do adore 
Me and you just 
Fit 
The greatest 
Gift 
Every hug 
Every kiss 
Was pure bliss 
As my pen 
Softly stroked 
The page 
I seen ya face 
Deep brown 
Like sage 
And I was ready to take that next stage 
In my mind 
You were smooth like fine wine 
You were perfect 
The furthest thing 
From faking 
Creating ecstasy 
My body shaking 
Then I re read my poem 
And marveled at my creation
