Reflections of My Soul
By Cheryse Newsome

Reflections of Love…

Wanna Lay with Me?

Can we…just lay here?
Not a care in the world, just me and you?
Body parts intertwined…
Remember how we used to do?
Yeah, just like that…still wet and sticky from last night’s rendezvous… smelling of love and sex
Can we…just for a moment…
Act like it’s 2005 again…when things were still fresh and new…
Nervous of what “could be”…but not too afraid to act on chance

Wanna lay with me?
I promise you’ll never be the same afterwards
No TV…no distractions…just Luther singing…candles burning and me moaning
I miss that…
Brown skin against my brown skin…
Shit…that Irie song was hot…
I wanna lay with you… like we used to do…
Saturdays devoted to us…doing couple’s things…but the day always started with US
Just laying…talking…laughing…sexing…laying
Wanna lay with me? R U 2 afraid to reminisce? Can’t you see it? Feel it?
It never died…we just lost sight of it
I wanna lay with you again…
Wine tasting…body aching, laying
I want to live with you…my soul longs, R&B songs…living
I want to share with you…
Family…hurts released…peace, sharing
I wanna lay with you…
Wanna lay with me? Powerful Eyes

They pierce me
As he stares through my soul…round, brown objects that can make me melt
Those powerful eyes; how he overtakes my body…more powerful than words
Stronger than muscles…yet he makes me shiver with one blink
How I’m hypnotized…whispering softly in my ear as he reads my inner most

Mark Knapp's Song 'When I Was Your Man'

109 Words | 1 Pages

When I first heard “When I Was Your Man,” the only thing that went through my mind were regrets as I remember how some of my relationships were in the past. Each and every time that I play the song, my opinions won’t change. According to Mark Knapp’s theory, there were ten stages of a relationship. The stages are initiating, experimenting, intensifying, integrating, bonding, differentiating, circumscribing, stagnating, avoiding, and terminating. Whenever the song get to the part, “Oh and it haunts me every time I close my eyes,” I can definitely remember some of these stages as they seem to haunt me each time I listen to this

He creates reasons to stay with her by the repetition of the words “Well, I guess” (Line 1) at the beginning of each stanza with exception for the last cycle in which he just says “I guess” (Line 37). This dropping of one word shows that he has decided and no longer really needs to convince himself to sleep with the woman. As the cycle continues this first stanza in the pattern depicts his advancement with the woman. The final line in the stanzas move from him just staying with her, to laying with her, to deciding to “dive right in” (Line 40), each progressively more obvious euphemisms for sex. It becomes obvious that the speaker blames the woman for his actions by how he describes her.

Reflective Essay: My Watershed Moment

1278 Words | 6 Pages

It was at this exact moment when I experienced my watershed moment. It was at this exact moment when I realized how even the things that we hate doing the most, are absolutely necessary to us because they define who we are as a person. I realized the issue with my life was not that I wasn’t intelligent, or that I was untalented at gymnastics, or that I had poor multitasking skills or an inability to cope with stress. My issue was my inability to want to get the best out of the advantages that the sport brought me. I had lived my entire life without realizing that all the work that I was putting into the gym was to eventually gain something greater.
