Be Easy

there’s something about his
brown skin
that keeps me
falling in…
curious
with him
and I’m
not sure if it’s
his swagger
or his style or
if it’s the way he smiles
that brings excitement to my day
but
whatever it is
I must say
when he walks my way
I have to
bite my lip
and tilt my head
slightly to the right
Just
To
Watch.
ha…
it’s a sly grin
each time I see
him
coming towards me
cause
I start hearing combinations of
india.arie and
jill scott melodies
the…close your eyes and

rock easy…
kind
the…you just run across my mind…
kind
the…brown skin…I can’t tell where yours begins…
I can’t tell where mine ends…
kind
and even better

since there’s no
complex design
our time is so easy
and very simply
I just
like my space when he be 
in it
and I just
like his space when I be

in it
and if our simplicity
had the chance to be infinite… 
nah…let’s not even complicate it…

I‘d rather just leave it understated
cause right now
this easy
is just where it needs to be
and I’m loving how it’s leaving me
grinnin’ and diggin’
that brown skin that
he
be
in.
