Untitled

Laying here beside you

While you sleep, and I with my thoughts running rampant

Can't help but be amazed at the love I feel for you

This particular love 

Has grown, embodied itself into my life in such a way that even absences 

Can't seem to tear us apart

Or make the fires that were ignited die out

Is this what soul mates feel like? 

This undeniable bond, sexual attraction, this emotional lifeline if you will

These feelings that can't simply be ignored even when one tries

Or one pushes the other away

Even when you admit you want to quit

The deep abyss that this love has grown out of has reigned us both back in

Never allowing too much time or space to take the place of this love

Short story, parts 1,2,3,

She turned her wedding ring around and around on her finger

As the vows that they spoke to each other played in her mind

She thought of the love they shared

She stared at the door in front of her

Room 315 and on the other side was the grass truly greener? 

She stood there and thought of him

Thought of the lustful feelings he gave her, the rapid heartbeat, the giggles.. That her man no longer gave her

Decisions.. Decisions.. 

She ran her fingers through her hair.. Wanting to feel his fingers do the same, she put her hand on the knob and..

..... Opened the door. She stood inside the doorway, her breathing increased. She took a couple of deep breathes and slipped her ring off her finger placing it in the inside lining of her purse. 

It's now or never she thought to herself. She walked further into the room to find the man that has put more smiles on her face and erased the moments that her husband made her cry, made her laugh more in the last month than her husband of four years had ever done. 

He smiled at her with so much love and warmth, she began to feel at ease. She walked over to him and placed her hands on his bare chest. A chest that would put David Beckham to shame. 

They stood there staring at each other, neither saying a word. Basking in each other's presence. 

If things went how she wanted them to go there would be no turning back, her life would be forever changed...

... I stood under the shower in room 315, washing away my sins as the memories of what transpired between him and I. 

The man made love to my body like he had known my curves, dips, spots for years, and then I frowned  when I thought of how my husband once touched me in those ways.

I couldn't help but to compare the two, one was inattentive and no longer cared about my needs when my secret lover cared about every need I had before I had the need itself. 

Is this how it's supposed to be? I squeezed the shampoo into my hair and started to work the soap into my scalp. I didn't regret letting him touch my sacred spots, I couldn't wait for the next time. 

WAIT! A next time.. I sighed.. What the hell had I got myself into? This wasn't me, but I knew I couldn't stop...

Sandra Bland

Sandra Bland

Don't you dare turn your back on the innocent that these cops continue to take from us

Her life was not lived in vain

Each moment she treasured

She was given an opportunity to better herself

Instead it would take her on a journey that would end up being her last days on this earth 

She was told she would be lit up 

And that she was under arrest 

No reason was given

All she was given was unnecessary duress 

3 days later, a fable was told

Her life was gone

Questions unanswered 

And in Illinois a family mourned

Sandra Bland

We must continue to say her name 

So that she isn't forgotten

That her memory lives on 

That we aid in the fight alongside her family in the hopes that the truth comes out

and that she is awarded justice

So I ask you to say her name

Sandra Bland

Untitled..

With disregard to my feelings

You embraced me, said words I never thought I would hear you say to me

Only for you to let me fall, and to my dismay you weren't standing there with open arms..

And so my body hit the floor 

Heart shattered as if it was glass

You slammed the door closed to what should have been the story of us

Instead leaving me uninhabited

I was no longer existing

Just a shell of what I used to be

You took the breathe that once belonged to me

When you told me you were leaving..

I am proud to announce..

When it isn't enough

When love just isn't enough.. 

When your sad, and you try to deny the reason behind your sadness

When your frustrated for what appears to be no reason

When your feelings and mind are playing tug of war

One side saying stay and love some more, when the other is telling you to leave and never return

When you love someone so much, but you know they don't deserve you

When provoked you don't react anymore because your all cried out, all tired from repeating and screaming

When hearing "I love you" and his kisses don't mean you feel like they used to

His future apologies never will

When you started out supporting your man, and going above and beyond to assist him in anyway.. 

But now all the giving in you has been extinguished

When you have tried to overlook the things, that you know aren't right 

Because your heart is all wrapped up in his life..

When love just isn't enough anymore..

Vote for the new book cover #FINGERTIPFOREPLAY

Epic

I want to experience a love that is epic

A love that most people dream about

I want my first and my last thought to be of you 

I want your happiness to equal mine

I want us both to push each other into fulfilling our goals

I want someone that can give me advice, tell me when I'm wrong but most of all tell me how to make it right

I want a love that can withstand any third parties that try to enter this affair

That can fight any struggle, without giving in to outside influences

A love that is full of promises that are kept, trust and both needs are met

Q. When did you began writing?/Why did you begin to write?

A. I began to writing to cope with life, I suffered a loss early in life being surrounded by gangs and drugs in my community and home.

Then I was introduced to hip hop, so I wrote rhymes but I liked what I wrote better without music. Later in life I deemed it poetry.

Q. Who inspires you/What inspires you?

A. Youth, Youthful energy and Resilience.  Critical thought and action provokes me, breaking barriers and accomplishing goals, and modeling for the "next gen" pushes me to hard and community-inner (my children) and outer (my social circle and others I affect)

Meet Kendra, from the Fingertip Foreplay book

Kendra is one of the many new poets to the Poetlife family. Get to know her by her words as told to me..

"It's hard to say when I began writing. It feels like it's always been a natural ability to me. I've written to ease my pain or express my intense teenage emotions in high school, so lets say it began there. No particular person inspired me, though I did a lot of reading. I loved reading, it made me wish that I could come up with stories like that. My favorite author is Dean Koontz. Horror novels were so great to me, my favorite book of all time is Black Beauty and I don't care that its a child's book. It taught me to be a better person and gave me a deep sense of empathy towards some of God's most helpless creatures. 

I have not done any spoken word or open mic night. The poems I have written for Fingertip Foreplay are my first actual attempts at poetry. I may be brave enough to read them to an audience Wednesday on the radio. 

There isn't much to know about me - yet! I am just getting started. There will be a variety of blogs in my future, and that will hopefully lead to more written works. I figure as long as I aspire for it, it will become my reality. "

Radio show..

Tomorrow night is the night!! You'll be able to hear some new sizzling poetry from the book Fingertip Foreplay. 

Are you ready?

Meet Patrice Ingram, featured writer of Fingertip Foreplay

Now you get to read about me...

I began writing poetry when I was in the sixth grade, that's when I became aware that I enjoyed writing. I had a lot going on in my life as a child and writing helped me get through it. 

Most of my youth and teen years I would journal, and write but never share what I wrote. It was very rare that I would share my writing. I was a little insecure and worried that others wouldn't like my writing, I'm a sensitive person so I didn't want to have to deal with critique. Times have changed! I enjoy feedback and I like to post my poetry and read it/share with others. 

I would have to say that other writers in general inspire me. I enjoy reading their work, because I feel like I grow just from reading it and it makes me want to improve my craft even more or get deeper with my writing. If I had to choose a poet I personally know that make me want to get deeper with my wordplay I would have to say it would be my cousin Endlesswill Davis. He may not know it but he pushes me without even trying. I also admire his confidence and overall presentation of his poetry. 

I am not apart of any chairities or organizations, however I do participate in a walk for Mental Health in May. This will be my second year doing the walk. My goal is to complete four walks a year. I would love to be able to do something with the cancer, diabetes, and Alzheimer's fundraisers. I have been affected by each of those. 

I have yet to perform any of my pieces at a spoken word or open mic event. That is on my bucket list ☺️. I enjoy writing it so much performing it hasn't been that big of a deal to me.

My future projects include my first solo project, a book of poetry called Emotional Rollercoaster : Reflective pieces, Love, Lies & Secrets (a novel), Corrupted (a novel), and the next installment of the erotic series Ink Intimacy. 

I currently have way too many favorite poems to mention just one person. I do enjoy everything I've read in the erotic series, and the greats like Maya Angelou. 

Well I hope you enjoyed getting to know a little about me before you read the book.. If you would like to see what my erotic style is like check out We Came Together.. Available for sale online
