Dilemma (2002)

you
standing far beside me
him
too close to touch
I
center of nowhere
we
remaining untouched

you
not meant to be
him
trying to feel nothing at all
I
center of nowhere standing tall

you
loving another as you love me
him
so locked up, loving feelings he'll never see
I
center of nowhere sometimes longing to be so untouched

nikita

The skin I am in

Sundrenched sweetness sugar kissed
Soft and sweet buttery brown skin
savory lips salted from home
mountains erected from joy,
southern volcanic storms
passion rains down the valley of my sides
around curves, through valleys
beyond the bend
