Greetings my brother
Haven't seen you in a while
Not a drift of your music
Nor peaks through the clouds
We miss you Donny
We miss your taste
We all have troubles
Why end it that way
My letter to Donny
Just one more say
We love you my bother
Forever Donny Hathaway

I smell of a lady
That I surely once knew
From the length of her hair
To the snapple of her shoe  
My it takes me back,
When love grew for days
Is it just a void
Or perhaps another place
I’m sure I can remember
My, the smell from that scarf
I smell of a past
The sweetest breath by far
Fragrances

Sophistications'

Sophisticated love
Long time no see
Last we ran,
You spoke weary of me
 How many mysteries
Crinkle beneath born feet
 Sophistications of her,
 Made a pup of me
I love you, indeed
Stuttering so vividly,
Dearly, I'm found
 Sophistications of she
The sophistications of love
Made a sophisticated me 
Sophistications’

As the subway pasts,

The moon stares right above

Chatters from the couples

Of romances and endless love

So many walk this way

So many walk from here

Endless affairs begins

Slightly quite the atmosphere

As the clock hits nine

Many has rested home

Sadly I reminisce,

Sadly all alone

 

Nights by the Station

Round 2 is for the love

She claims distorted her first

So grizzled and fiddled

Despised by my early morning burst

Round 1 was just for fun

As days of many love letters

The times of summer hangouts

Blended kisses beneath her belly

Round 2

Lemme' get a smoke, brother

Toss me a match too

Sounds of motown

Temptations and quiet sounds

Let me get a light

To breathe these wondering minds

Sounds from uptown

Sounds like hard times

Another Smoke

She sucks her breath through her swollen nostrils,

The sound...

Is deafening.

 

She cannot breathe on island ground,

Her eyes swell up,

They're blinding.

 

Benadryl brings no relief,

The scratching goes untamed,

Her ear-drums itch...

There is NO sound...

 

The silence,

is deafening.

Sitting in this empty space surrounded by the stars so far above

Thinking of the days passed by with little to no connections

Favored by none connected to the dust that sweeps by in the wind

Considered to be gone without the chance to reform my image

Living the days with cloudy eyes

Unable to see clearly the steps ahead

Standing in motion unable to move forward

The mind not as clear as crystal water streams

You expect me to dance when you stare,
But in fact I sit still as a rock and just stare back.
You think I'm completely silent.
In solitude.

I'm not going to lie to you and tell you there aren't any monsters,
Nor am I going to sugarcoat the facts,
People are monsters, kid. 
Humanity is imaginary.

We used to say to burn to death would be 
excruciating
But love,
You do not know
The extent of excruciating; 
The pain of losing you.
