This is a collaboration piece I wrote with Freddie Robinson. It was a joy and honor to write with such a talented poet.
The spirit of the woman I love has changed me, this I do know The sheer force of her femininity has made me a better man, absolutely so She engages me with godly dialog, it helps elevate my consciousness She's the woman I've always desired, who truly makes me feel blessed She's my better half Lord knows, she is the best She completes my identity, I love her unconditionally, I confess The spirit of the man I love is so amazing, this I do feel He loved me in spite of my brokenness God has blessed me from above, with this man's love I'm now healed He caresses my heart like a dove's sigh, with such gentle tenderness He's my better half God knit our hearts together He completes me so in every way, I'm his soul mate and lover forever 10-31-16 Written by Alexis Y. and Freddie Robinson

Well, Lady Alexis, I am so honored to have worked w/you. Now I know how other great duet collaborations must have felt like. Roberta Flack/Peabo Bryson, Marvin Gaye/Tammy Terrell.
