Simple Thoughts On Love
true love
does not betray
the flesh
nor play with the heart;
true love
is not about the hit---booty calls
nor the plan of the game;
true love
does not brag
nor seeks selfish scores
as my baby’s mommy---
my baby’s daddy---
but prides itself
as fostering kings, queens,
princes and princesses
sharing a common name
abiding and anchored
within the same kingdom---
not wishing to be hoisted away,
satisfied to be there to stay.
