slowly, surely...

Jill Scott - 2000

slowly & surely
walking towards beloved
enroute
through
& into me
i watched sister girl
ms. jill scott live!

see, i've been thinking
of this love of mine
watched it turn and twist in side
as i kiss one frog after another.
some that look like my prince
only is frog in disguise..

i haven't been paying
too much attention to me
you feel

these desires aside
cast me away from the love
that rests inside.

& so tonight
while la luna danced
across a cloudy sky.
the one
was right beside i
who never left
always believed.
