I see you
I see you, brother
I see you… With your muscular frame, and your toned body, and your brown eyes
those eyes that seem to see through the shell that is my body to my spirit
those eyes that seem to see through my flesh to my soul
those eyes that seem to read my thoughts and my fears and my desires and my hopes and my dreams…
I see you
I see you, brother
I see you and that smile…
that smile has got me melting to the ground ever so slowly
it’s got me wanting you so badly
your smile has me gasping and sighing and thanking and praising God!
for creating something so soothing and so moving
it’s got me thinking of ‘we’ and not just ‘you’ and ‘me’…
I see you
I see you, brother
I see you and those lips
they have me running and tripping and sliding and falling for you so deeply
Those lips, what is it about those lips that…
Seem to be controlling my heart beat and my hormones and my adrenaline and my emotions…
your lips have got me licking mine and thinking of how it would be worth my while if i got to have just a little time, with those lips…
They’ve got me thinking of bodies clinging and heavy breathing and sweat trickling and me almost screaming…
I see you
I see you, brother
I see you and that skin
that skin that’s got me wanting you to be my African King
that skin that’s got me wanting to be part of your kin-ship
that skin that’s got me wanting more than friend-ship
that skin that’s got me thinking of me and you having relations…
Or maybe, being in a relation-ship
that skin that’s got me craving your touch
yours is skin that got me wanting maybe too much
it’s got me wanting you… And then some
more… Of… You…
I see you
I see you, brother
I see you, watching me…
What do you see?
