I am writing my story

My life’s story

As Autumn leaves

Dance in the wind

Morning shadows wake me alive

Stimulating my insides

Smells like lemongrass

And orange zest

I want to be alive

Songs play in my head

I know it’s my time

Like Sunday morning best

Feels like wearing a new skin

With each new page I’m turning

Leads to new beginnings

No I won’t waste time

Some have left me

But those were chapters

Meant to be closed

So my spirit could

Wake up, Rise Up and Grow

I am writing my story

Sentence, verse, paragraph and rhymes

Putting one foot in front of the other

Claiming what’s mine

Been a long time coming

Some chapters were hell

But lessons were learned

And old habits shed

Yes, I can Smile knowing

This chapter’s worth writing

This story must be told

Like the leaves dancing

In the wind

On a crisp fall day

One season is ending

As another begins

I feel it in the depth of my person

This is the chapter

My season for winning

No time to look back

Those pages are closed

I’m shedding that skin

Starting new feels good

Like brand new red shinny shoes

First tight then fits my groove

This is my story

I’ll write it my way

Some chapters were harder

Than others but I know this for sure

They were worth living

I’m so glad for today

I Am Writing my Story

And I’m doing it my own way

Mind F..ked

Mind F..ked

N Noël June 2011

You got in my head

Came for a short visit

But stayed instead

Wrapped me in your

Web of words

Tiny inflections

Infused in my psyche

Unexpectedly you

Mind fucked me

Wore me down

Worked your way in

With your jeweled tongue

Caught me off guard

Before I knew it

You were in

Lock, stock and barrel

I was hooked, fucked

A mind fuck

Slow, easy, seductively

Turning me out

With your conversation

Started with a whisper

Grew into a rumble

That sent my mind

In every direction

Hanging on every syllable

Of your verbal storm

Like a lullaby

Rockin me to sleep

But strong enough

To churn my insides

With the words

Your tongue speaks

Snuck up on me

Without warning

This storm you started

In my head

Keeps me up at night

Wanting more

Waiting for every

Phrase you recite

You 69ed, Ménage a trios

And chained my thoughts

Into S & M fantasies

You put my dreams

On lyrical lock down

Mind fucked me

Sucked in, turned out

By your conversation

You got in my head

Came for a short visit

But absorbed me instead

Mind fucked me

I’m taken by

Your melodious tongue

That silver bullet

That fills my mind

With thoughts

That make me want to

Come to you

Belong to you

You got me, yeah

You got me

Mind Fucked Me

Ain't My Fault

Ain't My Fault

© N Noël June 2011

It ain’t my fault

That Your understanding of self-esteem

Comes from between

Your legs instead of

What your daddy told you instead

Ain’t my fault because mine was around

Stop acting like my existence

Is what brings you down

Can’t blame someone who wasn’t there

Or get mad because you’re stuck

On the idea that beauty

Is about light skinned or Fair

Can’t you fathom the idea of complete

Ain’t my fault you keep

Throwing me your deceit

Sista I know, you don’t know better

But you working on getting your Ass beat

Ain’t my fault cause I walk around with pride

I know from where I’ve come

And where I’m going before I die

Say what you want I know and believe

Your words and stares don’t do nothing

But roll off this back with ease

"You think you’re all that”

That’s what you say

You better believe that my dear

Cause my peace comes from within

“You walk around like your shit don’t stink”

Apparently it doesn’t

But you think

What you want to think

Ain’t my fault my walk has a sway

These hips I’m carrying

Can make a man beg and cry

What you need is a lesson

In the term “Confidence”

From my feminine wise

Get it together

Don’t jump bad

Yeah I know my face is pretty

So don’t be fooled

I am not the one to play with

If you don’t want to be schooled

Ain’t my fault I’ve got self-esteem

Nor that my mind matches

My beauty, it’s called Good Genes

I’m not the one that’s holding you back

That’s your insecurities

And lack of pride

Maybe if you learned

To like yourself

That hate would subside

Ain’t my fault

And I will not be blamed

Don’t have time for your silly

Childlike games, get it together

It’s all on you

Leave my name off your lips

Like I said before

You can’t handle all this

Do you REALLY want

To challenge ME sis

Ain’t my fault

I walk with a head held high

If you were smart, you would try

To match my stride

I’m not the one

That’s holding you back

Such a shame you can’t see

That it all starts with inner beauty

Love yourself, all that is you

Maybe one day

You’ll get this fact

But seriously

All I know

Ain’t my Fault

Live

Live
© N Noël June 2011

I wanna live and not cry

Stop worrying about the maybes

Close my eyes believe

Not be afraid to try

I wanna laugh loud like

Noise of children’s play

Wake up everyday joyous

For new beginnings

New opportunities

A chance for life

Possibilities beyond belief

I wanna make love from

Sunrise to moonlight

And repeat it all again

I wanna live my life

With a person I call my best friend

Trying is one thing

Doing is another

No promises come from

Closed doors

I wanna open shutters

That were once sealed

And scream with lungs

Filled with joy

I wanna live life

Without fear

I wanna kiss sweet kisses

With passion so deep

All over my body

When I wake from sleep

Smile at my reflection

That’s brimming with chance

From living each moment

Like a child that’s deeply loved

Makes the soul dance

I wanna live and not cry

I’ve got so much to give

My cup runneth over

With this life inside me

I know and receive

It is a gift

Nothing is promised

But that’s alright

This is still a life for living

And so worth the fight

I wanna live to the fullest

Without wishful regrets

Life is for the living

What are you waiting for

I’m opening my heart

Taking every experience in

I’m betting on me this time

I wanna live, give myself

This best second chance

Midday Lovin

Midday lovin

Midday lovin on a
Breezy Saturday afternoon
Soft kisses, wet lips
As we lay and spoon

Sunlight beams in
Waiting to be let in
Nothing can interrupt
This space we’re in

Smells like warm chocolate
On a hot sultry day
You melt into my body
Like a melody as we play

Music playin in the background
Clothes scattered across
The bed and floor
Midday layin getting it all in
It’s that time between
Morning and right before evening

Ceiling fan spinning slowly
Then matching our pace
No need to rush
It’s a slow midday grind
Legs wrapped around a strong back
Hands clasp and support a supple behind

Legs apart, lips are too
Top of the head
And whites of eyes
Lookin up lovingly at you

Waves of pleasure
And torrid screams
Both satisfied collapsing
Into each other
With the afternoon breeze

Midday loving cast its spell
Leads to places
Of warmth and wetness
Where passion overwhelms
Midday lovin on a Saturday afternoon
Come back for frequent visits
I’ll be waiting after 12pm
In the midday noon

Solitary Confinement

Solitary Confinement
© N Noël Aug 2011


I won’t play games with my heart
Came through many battles and got smart
Won’t take mere words for granted
You say you want me, love me
With fantasies and dreams
I know this heart can spot
Any con man schemes

Yes it’s a job
You’ve got to put in work
These walls didn’t go up
So high by choice
I know I can’t fall for
Any shuffle or seductive dance
This heart been in
Solitary Confinement
Not by pure choice
But by default
It was given this assignment
And has learned love can scorn

Given time to heal
While locked away
From lessons that tormented it
That cut like a knife
Won’t play games with this heart
Yes, I know sometimes
We all deserve a new start
But an unknowing mistake
Can be an unforgettable set back


Are you willing to put in the work?
Or is it just lip service
And flowery torts
You hope will do the trick
Let’s just keep this in mind
Experience has taught me that
Dick is just Dick


Opening one door
Does not mean it will
Lead to the other
My friend
This heart has been in
Solitary Confinement

Won’t play games with my heart
Need a strong desire
One that will set you a part
It won’t be easy
I know this for a fact
Some take the easy way out
And never look back

Yes this heart’s been in
Solitary Confinement
Maybe with the right direction
The pain behind it
Can be replaced
Yes it will take time
So prepare for a steadfast pace


It won’t be easy
I know this for sure
But once opened
It can be a heart that
Will love, commit
Share and adore
Once out of
Solitary Confinement
