Random Thoughts *39* the Ghazal
Interested, I approach slowly with these incited thoughts;
Lately, she torments my daydreams, stimulating such excited thoughts.
Tonight could be a good night, we may grow collectively.
A benefits package for me? she leaves me with these ignited thoughts.
No quarrels with the time I get in, how I dress, how I look with this afro. I'm
Straying, I'm embracing another. This morning I left her with unrequited thoughts.
This secret affair, my benefits package best kept protected, on the down-low.
We developed slow. Enemies turned lovers can be such a delighted thought.
I sought, thought I found love, that bought heartache. I strayed because I'm
Miserable most days, dark and gloomy. She is my escape from these blighted thoughts.
