Together they sat as time had passed,
Gazing upon each other across the table,
Her hands placed gently in her lap,
As of love, his heart was no longer able,

“Unrestrained” omitted from Blue Lines
K.S. 5/20/2000

your eyes were the first thing I saw
slanted and your gaze hazed
braids and your continued stares intrigued me
then you pressed
death and pain left my heart chained
but you hid your pain
your soft voice and sudden stares
your heart became aware, but like that you were gone

you entered again
blind gazes took you past
until you realized who I was
the meaning I gave you
and the joy I brought your heart
we stood to talk for hours
black & mild within grasp
gone from my life was sorrow
for you I should take that chance

I initially thought of skipping this last post, “Something Beautiful,” typical would be nature, that specific real/famous woman that captures your thoughts. However, last night looking for an old photo of myself, I happened upon the number of my first girlfriend (from Oakland, CA). See youngin’s, we used to ask girls for their numbers, and actually call them. So, there’s “Something Beautiful,” back when we were young and dumb, and thought we knew everything.

The manuscript Blue Lines is the fictional coming of age narrative of a young California woman Key Yemaya Walker, and her 2 year growing journey through school, love, and life period piece, written by Kenneth Suffern, Jr., taking place at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill between the years of 1997 – 1998. Loosely based on true events, and experiences during that time, told through the eyes and voice of the main female protagonist, a freshman first attending the school.
