The Final Truth

THE FINAL TRUTH
So here I am wearing my heart on my sleeves
To the tip of my fingers tempting to pour out
All its felt but untold emotions on this blank
Piece of paper. Words are still my closest friend,
They know the true story about me and the thoughts
That always crowd my mind when I’m alone with self
Trying to make sense of who I’ve became, and
Who hurt me so bad that I should despise love with all
That it stands for even when I’ve seen one person that my
Heart could be capable to love with all that it’s made of. Trying to
Make sense of things and feelings I always try to
Run away from in broad day light because I do
Not wanna be perceived as weak and emotional.

Words are still my best friends and right now they
Carry my heart and they refuse for me to lie in this poem.
They refuse for me to use them in hiding things.
And they refuse for me to bottle them up in my thoughts.

So here comes the truth in the perfect match of black
And white. Here comes the truth that has blossomed like fresh flowers
Newly sprung in spring. Here comes the truth revealing
The I in me, revealing the self. Here comes the truth, it had
To be told, I’ve sold myself in loneliness and lies for far too
Long now, when all I was longing for was just you.
your warm hands perfectly tucked in mine, your head safely rested
Upon my shoulders, and if you lifted it just one ounce your
Chick will be against mine and I would just long to lift your
Chin; tilt your head till my lips meet yours. This picture is just
All I’ve been constructing in my mind ever since I knew you.

I know this I’ve never told you, and you have studied
Me concluded that I possess a rare phobia of commitment,
Thus I toy around with other people’s emotions but still
Protecting myself.
You have studied me wrong, if you studied me right
You would realise the way I look at you, the way I block
Tears in my eyes every time because I do not know how
To look into your eyes and make you believe that you’ve
Made me feel like I’ve never felt before.
If you studied me right, you would know that I haven’t told
You this because I’m afraid of the fragile woman that you
Are and I find myself not worthy of you.
If you studied me right then you would know that
I love poetry more than life because it gives me life,
Therefore my poetry never lies, and this one just told
The truth of how I really feel about you.
I do love you.

STUCK IN TIME


Forgive me father for not believing
That your timing is always just perfect.

I’m stuck in time...

Butterfly wings floating in what used to be,
Memories of me and her, her and me.

I’m stuck in time...

I wanna find a leprechaun and abduct it.
Maybe the mythological little man of ancient
Folk law will grant me three wishes. 
I will look up to the sky holding stars
 in these very hands
That used to hold her; 
I’ll hold stars in between my laced
Two hands and believe nothing is impossible.
 Ill Wait and sing a prayer of these wishes. 
My three wishes are simple,
God am I asking for too much.

Grant me my son, her, our family.

At the end of this rainbow may
we find our hidden treasure?
Our golden pot of love that existed even before Christ
Came into existence, 
when the Goddesses of love like Venus
Ruled the universe and gave birth 
to the ancient believed in Cupid.

At the end of this rainbow I wanna find lost time, and re live
Memories like it was just yesterday,
At the end of this rainbow 
I wanna find a heart that once
Captured mine, maybe we will make endless love,
 float In magical clouds with Angels blessing us in unison.

We shall make endless love and in my womb we shall neat
Another being with art and poetry of her egg and my egg (it’s possible).
We shall name this new being Isis, the ancient Egyptian Goddess of
Fertility and magic for the magical connection
Between us could never be denied.
At the end of this rainbow…

I wanna find truth.

God I’m stuck in time.

Unseen Thoughts About You

set me free.
touch my soul
not with your hands
(reserve those for my delicate bottom).
but with your smile.

set me free and smile.
i remember vividly the
first time i saw you smile.
i blossomed from within
like a morning in early spring
with birds melodically singing
away, calling the sunlight to life,
picking with their beaks the early
morning dew over soft green grass.

i smiled and though i shall
confess that i perved over you.
my mind couldn't resist but race.
i recited unseen poems, never written,
hidden ancient porn poems
of the love making i wanna
share with you.
in my mind i dared undress you.
your life giving hills in the
capable palm of my hands.
willingly i explored contours
of your body,
we emerged to the heavens
and back.
we, emerged to the
future,
we came to acceptance.
this is right.
so we breath into
each other in slow motion kisses,
souls singing,
body's sinking and rising
into one another in unison.
unicorns sure even exists
because this magic exist too.

Pause!!

lets rewind,
out of my dirty mind.
i said set me free my stud lover,
touch my soul.
im ready,

Pregnant Butch Women

before i even start this article, i will first state that i will say it LOUD. the whole aim of my blog after all is to say things that people still fear to talk about or things that are considered to not be normal in the lesbian communities.

this article was inspired by a post i followed on facebook. the poster stated "ngathi uyanda lomkhuba wama butch amithayo" (this trend of butches who get pregnant is increasing rapidly.) i am not going to be the one who is going to justify why butches get pregnant and whether or not they should or should not fall pregnant. i followed this person's posts for quiet some time; on a regular basis she finds the need to post a nasty comment about butches who get pregnant. what is more interesting is the comments that will flood the post with about 99% of the commenters agreeing with her bullshit of a post. this is a butch lesbian woman who has a son about 9 years old. well, im sure she justifies being a butch mother because she had that child before she could label or classify herself as butch.

her other post was directed to femme lesbian woman she asked: "Ma Femme wena ungenzenjani if your Butch Lover got Pregnant." her other post said: "its Better for a femme to be pregnant, there is nothing as disgusting as a pregnant butch woman." with all this posts, i just click the get notifications icon and follow comments and be amazed by the stupidity of the lesbian community, the butch ones in particular.
i would like to state my case and say, a butch lesbian woman is no less of a woman that a femme lesbian woman. they both have the bottom side that can open to things going in, a womb that can accept swimming semen, Fallopian tubes that bear eggs that break every month and thus leading to menstruation.a butch woman secretes hormones like Progesterone too, this hormone makes sure the endometrium gets lined up every time and ensures that if this person got pregnant, the womb will be more than capable of carrying a child. they have breasts that can very much secrete milk.

butch lesbian women also have a need, a natural need to nurture. as one gets older they feel the yearning to have children and have seeds to call their own. as a butch lesbian woman, it is never easy to just wake up one day and say now i will marry a man and have children and be happy for the rest of your life. but that yearning to be called a mom and a have children of your own is always there, it never goes away. when one labels themselves as butch, this does not mean they do not possess femininity within them or can not feel what other women feel. we all desire something we can really call our own, and that something most often is "Children".  
not long ago i was watching an episode of "Between women.". Mia (Butch) was telling her wife that she wants to have another child and she said "I will carry it." so in my mind i was thinking: "if Mia walked around as a pregnant butch woman in South Africa, she was probably going to be the talk of the town and a disgrace to those who think of themselves as more butch than others." that is the problem right there we tend to think we know more about other people and we box them in our little minds and make stupid conclusions about their lives. we think we know what the right way of being a Butch lesbian is. we have formulated formulas, and recipes of what butches should act and behave like. we forget that one is human before being a lesbian, one is a woman before being a lesbian, one is a lesbian before being a butch lesbian.

in this time and age there is a variety of ways that can help women conceive without even having slept with a man. the procedures are usually costly but a couple can budget for it and if the couple decides among themselves that the Butch one in a relationship is the one who is going to carry the child then let it be. if other couples can not afford the invitro then so what if they make that sacrifice of one sleeping with a person that the couple both trusts so that they can conceive. i know a lesbian who was at a point where she desperately wanted to have kids and she obviously could not afford medical procedures so she asked her gay best friend if they could just do it to have a kid and they both had a mutual agreement. their partners agreed to it too.

i think its about time we pay attention to what we do and forget about what everyone else is doing. if you feel your way of being a butch lesbian is a right way than keep at it, keep your standards, keep your stereotypes, keep your everything that makes you sleep better at night, but do not dare dictate what is right to you to anybody else because your right may be their wrong. what i have noticed too is that people make a mistake of thinking that being a lesbian is measured according to who one has sex with, if you think lesbianism is about sex, then revisit your definitions. emotions do not reside in ones vagina. if a lesbian woman wakes up one day and decides she wants to experience what sex with a male person is like, that should not be anybody's business. that for me does not also make her less of a lesbian than anybody else. i am not trying to condone anything here but i just want people to start thinking out of the box. i want people to do what feels right with them and stop judging other people or measuring other people according to certain standards. we are all different in our own right. we all have different journeys that we walked and are still walking towards discovering ourselves and our sexuality. it is never an easy over night journey. what your sexuality means to you may differ from what it means to someone else.

to butch women, i would like to say; it is ok to be pregnant, it is ok to be a woman and a bearer of children, it is ok to keep life growing in you. be proud of yourself for wanting to be a mother. others get pregnant, lie about being raped, others abort their babies because they feel that its better to live a lie, its better to hide truths from the community that will viciously judge. IT IS OK. butch women deserve families too and that does nor make you any less of a lesbian

YOU SAT HEAVILY ON MY SUBCONSCIOUS

You sat Heavily on my Subconscious.

You existed in my mind
beyond my conscious, 
so my dreams revealed you in my sleep. 
There i did and confessed things
i cant in my conscious life.
I closed in on this dream, 
held it so dear and brought it closer 
to my closed eyes so i can see
with the spirit,
just so i can have a clear unpolluted image of you,
hear the waves your voice makes 
and feel your touch as i would in my busy reality.

So I kissed YOU.

And i woke up with your fresh breath
in my soul and your scent in my mind, 
and my nipples couldn't lie because 
i allowed you to nibble on them in my dream.

You existed in my mind 
beyond my conscious 
so my dreams revealed you in my sleep.

This time; caged in the serenity of this all, 
i couldn't help but surrender. This time; chained in the truthfulness of this all, 
I couldn't starter or tell lies
.
In my waking life, i run, i hide, i lie, i deny.. Slowly i forge and push thoughts of you away 
and hide under the busy schedule of my life.
This ain't fair, and even now, i know i speak in riddles,
but..
My conscious couldn't lie.

Help me tell the truth.. Help me find my way to you, 
and in the tranquility of the space 
where our souls will meet, 
promise 
you 
wont 
let 
me 
go.

I Am Dating a Stud. A Butch Lesbian Woman

after my first article titled "i wanna date a stud" was written, it got a lot of positive responses; and i must say, it was the most read article of all the article and poems i have ever written. some said it liberated them, and of course there were those that challenged me and the issues i raised in the article, but all in all those were positive responses and i loved the conversations the article sparked. the conversations led to a whole lot of other things i still want to write about like the values of the LGBTI community vs Personal values (where does one draw the line? To what extent do all these matter and what do they really mean?) and the history of the LGBTI, the labels especially the butch ones. i also want to explore why the quest for queerness is such an endless journey. but of course these are topics for another day.
in my article "i wanna date a stud", i said when i do find that butch sexy lover of mine i will write endless stories about us and let the world know how much of a blessing our relationship is and just to point out that it is as normal as any other relationship. so i am dating a stud and this is a a commitment and friendship article to her.

when i first met her my heart couldn't submarine, i swear it felt like it just had roaring lions only screaming her name and right there i knew that i want to create lifetime memories with her. the kind that would be imprinted on my soul like paws of lions on a desert with the softest sand ever found on earth. its kind of a liberating feeling knowing for sure with no doubt that you just want to loose yourself and love like you have never loved before. that you just want to hold that one person's hand in public and through thick and thin, darkness and light, sunrise and sunset, when all you want to do is proclaim to the universe as a whole that you just want to love and you want to love that one person right like rain upon blossoming flowers (that natural).
when i first looked into her eyes, i glowed. words could not escape my throat so without a word i embraced her, i drawed her closer to me, put her on my bosom as close as anyone can ever be to me. infact i wanted to open my heart and just tuck her there under its contours then she would know it bears no lies. when words finally escaped me i said: "i shall never let you go."

over the months that i have known her she has become a big part of me. she has become my best friend and we are committed to each other. when thunderstorms declare to tear us apart i will hold her oh so dear and say that this is just the beginning of rainbow magic for us, that this is the beginning of clear horizons filled with singing birds and birth of new stars in our endless universe. all i want to do is just to love her right. when i can't talk and i just want to shut the rest of the world out, i want her to be the only person i can let in with no fear and doubt. you see, i just want to love this soul like a friendship that began in kindergarten. this is the type where we laugh at each others bad jokes that are not really funny but because we are the only ones who get them. this is the type where we walk around the pavements of Jozi streets chewing ice cream cones like little kids, go to bed with each other on that single bed that i own wearing the Smurfs and Spongebob pyjamas (im totally buying her those for her birthday :-) ).

i am stud and i am dating one too. she is my friend because she is the only one that gets me right, loves me rights, and of course sexs me right. :-) at times we would get silly and greet each other with that "sho boi" tip and put our shoulders against one another. i love this because i know still that this is a woman that has a heart that silently sings love songs and recite love poems about me and the journeys we are still yet to walk together. when life weighs hard on our shoulders and we feel our knees on our physical bodies can not carry us any more; our spirits meet in silent places where love began, where Angels drafted down our names connecting them to forevers and evers and evers. we do meet in those silent places and the spiritual winds blow us towards each other and glew us to new beginnings and everything feels so refreshing.

i am dating a stud, i am still constantly, everyday learning to let her in. i am ready to let her be the one to hold my heart with her bear hands that breath fire to purify the pain and hurts of all the past relationships that never worked out with any other women. i am willing to let her touch all the wounds with her bare hands because i have entrusted her with my heart to stitch it back together with her gentle kisses and warm embraces.
i am willing to let her in and let her see the tears that i have always cried in the dark before her, i know she has the ability to wipe them away turning the salty bitter taste to sweet taste of joy.
i am saying this again, all i want to do is love her right and keep our relationship sacred. i do believe that she came just at the right time. no one can love me more than she does and yes, my heart still feel like the first time i laid eyes on her. it still burns with passion and desire and roars.

last but not least, who ever game you information about studs im sure they have never encountered one. there is a rumour that can never be true that 'butches' do not want to be touched in any sexual manner, they like to dominate and be the givers never the receivers. (which butches have you been dating gal!) hence butch to butch relationships are always frowned upon because people *femmes especially* think butch to butch and be like, "sooo, how do you guys have sex, who dominates who?" i always smile and think to myself "oooh you of little knowledge and understanding". all i know is that when i am in a room with my stud love, the climate changes we turn it up to another level of climaxes. we go all the way around each others bodies in all the corners of the house. as soon as those boxer shots are off we just feast on each other and fill our souls. we touch, grab, squeeze, lick, clit on clit......
ok. before i give too much information about my bedroom i want to say this. i am dating a stud, and yes i am one too and its the best of all the relationships i have ever heard. we are going for two years together now. who knows, the next time i tell our story i will be saying "i married a stud. Suits And All."

i have not seen anything different with my relationship from those of Butch to femme relationships. those ones are usually just to buy face and portray some image that was historically created by a heterosexual community .*I SAID IT LOUD*

Genuine Black Pearl

Genuine Black Pearl...
They say the natural Pearls 
are rare in the wild, 
so harvesting takes time.
I'm known for patience so i'll wait.
I'l write these craving for you,
yearning for you,
lusting for you poems
till my conscious will allow me
to pour out the rare truth of my soul.
your palm on mine, 
hope your soul can expose it sickles,
gravitate towards mine and 
harvest its burning passion and desire. Then, ill be your Oyster,
my body will be a nest for yours, 
and we shall swing and sing songs
that only art can comprehend. Hard burning passion shall flow 
from our coarse hair as we cling 
to each other's every hair and 
these very hairs shall become 
a ladder to heaven and purity 
and endless magic that only 
Angels can comprehend...

And we shall moan and speak 
in the tongues of the God's , 
it doesn't get more spiritual than this...
As I COME ....
closer to making a home for the 
genuine rare Pearl in the corners of my heart..
