The Woman In Me

By: Dolisha DeVonne

Beautiful brown eyes and long dark hair,

A face so lovely, you can’t help but stare,

A tone, so sweet, you fall in love with the sound,

A mind so complex and impeccable style,

Long legs that walk to her own unique beat,

A voice so powerful, she draws attention when she speaks,

A heart full of gold and loves as hard as you can take it,

A true sense of self too undeniable to fake it,

So close to perfection, you question if it’s really real,

Yet she puts all doubts at ease, when herself, she reveals,

Accepting of her past and controls the present,

Remains consistent through actions and keeps spirits uplifted,

Has the power of persuasion and can sometimes get her way,

Disregarding of the obstacles that try and block her way,

In conclusion, we can say, this woman is incredible indeed,

And you may find another, but she’ll never be close to me

MARCH THE THIRD

By: Dolisha DeVonne

We made love in the spring,

In summer heat, our fire burned strong,

Then one day you kissed my lips,

And by the fall, you were gone.

Never expected for you I would fall,

So naïve to believe it wouldn’t happen at all,

Drunk from the essence like cabernet wine,

When he touched my body, he took his time,

The way he loved—so warm and sweet,

He’d comfort me in his arms until I fell asleep,

I never took for granted

The feel of every kiss you planted     

Nor will I forget that beautiful smize,

That compliment those coffee-brown eyes,

I wish I could go back to that August day,

Sitting in my car on that warm, humid day

Staring at your face thru my cell phone screen

Overjoyed to be in your presence and seen

Or maybe rewind back to those sensual late nights

Where we shared our most intimate moments

Reminiscing on how you held me tight,

Memories, embedded and reminded every season,

And sometimes for no reason,

Something out the blue will remind me of you

Daydreaming of rare moments,

Smiling, just by thinking about you,

Flash backs, I want to forget, but I lost when I fought,

Causes me to get lost in my thoughts.

Yet still I progress, slowing leaving behind what I felt,

And embrace these new seasons all by myself
