How pompous and arrogant to think myself beautiful
Now sitting on the sidelines I see beauty in its fullest
Beautiful body
Trance-like movements
graceful and
endearing
Pulling the eye
Searching the soul
Invading the heart
The pure essence of all that is creative
I watch from my lonely perch and hope for the opportunity
To compete
To strive
for such beauty excellence and grace.
~ Chavonda Frazier
The trees
swimming around each other
The river
rushing towards the sky
Even the mountains
melting together
all these unnatural sights
as if the spinning in my brain is affecting the way I see the world
you're running around in my mind
like a marathon champion
with no way to stop
How
Why
When
Where
How did you get so deep inside
Why can't this be easier
When will I see you again
Where will that magic moment be
I want so badly to wrap you in my arms
right here
right now
I want to feel you next to me
The sun on our faces
the grass on our backs
the sand between our toes
the trees rising around us
The sky within easy reach
the sea miles below
The sheets tangled around our bodies
Your voice in my ear
and your eyes
piercing my soul with every breath
You don't even know what you're doing to me
and I couldn't tell you how
what's done is done
and here I am in my life
waiting
wanting
hoping
more than anything
to see you
talk to you
hold you again
My beautiful soul
remember these words as I will
"Don't break my heart"

~ Chavonda Frazier
The contrasts of the peaceful
Moonlit night
And the pounding bass
Of the impromptu disco
The convergence
Issues a moaning wail
As the soul of a person
Flies
And
Dies
All in one breath
The bell tower
Nothing more than metal on a string
Sways in the ever blowing winds
Of a life always on the move
Railings
Bars
All to keep the most important at bay
To keep reality from seeping in
And it does
Reality has a way of being ever elusive
Suddenly fleeing
When you think you have found it
~ Chavonda Frazier
Words fly
Lyrics ring
I don’t understand a thing
Daydreams in cloudy skies
Waves of blue
Just sailing by
Flickering light
Of burning ash
From myself
I want to dash
Days of sun
Island dreams
Reality
Doesn’t mean a thing
