Between My LinesA Poem by Monique JacksonPretty self explanatory here...Or is it?
Let me take a step back Into a zone not traveled Bring you into my mind Show you how it gets handled Before I begin I must warn you I travel in worlds never explored My imagination holds all the keys But only one can open up my doors Sit back, relax, and enjoy my ride This is not a process to be rushed I truly believe in taking my time Every minute, every second all mine I need you to feel the words I say Take your time from line to line Study the flow until it marinates inside Show me that you feel the spaces between the lines I want you to promise me you understand From the moment my mind let you enter in I’m allowing you deeper access than ever before So, deep that I get weak in the knees when you explore From the crown of my head To the very soles of my feet Your soul has been united with me Outside and in nothing but connection Wondering if I needed more protection Letting you travel these emotional grounds My heartbeat is making intense thunderstorm sounds Then again I like the reconstruction when you visit my town Come while I take you just a little further Keep going deeper through me until you’re lost Too far inside of me to ever want to pull back out Now, I have you right where I want you to ponder You’ve been following along well I forgot what I was teaching under this spell We’re going to have to finish this some other time I just needed you to sample the words between my lines Sorry, that I have to go in a hurry I didn’t mean to let you stay in so long Just enough for you to make music to my song But don’t worry I’ll call you back for the encore When the lights come off Everything attached is falling down So, remember the spaces and margins you found Because the next time we meet there will be no sample round © 2008 Monique Jackson |
