A Poet and Aspiring Author…
My name is Toy Honey, I’m a poet and aspiring to be an author. I have been writing poetry since I was a teenager. I was introduced to music before poetry while I was a member in the high school choir and church choir, being a singer was my ultimate dream. Before I got back into writing poetry I would write erotica and romantic short stories. Fellow poet, Joski the poet, encouraged me to get back into poetry and ever since my pen has been busy.
The first show I showcased my work on is called The Artist Lounge hosted by Jill Delbridge, then not too soon afterward I was offered the chance to host Vertikal Bistro/Cafe along with Norman Anderson and Janet Dawson. My experience being a host has not only humbled me as a person but has also helped me to educate myself on topics in life that people won’t talk about. In my future, I will be self-publishing my first book and I hope to continue to grow as a writer and a poet.
All I Ask
All I ask is that you
Love me
Trust me
Let me inside of
Your world
Hold me
Feel all the love
I have inside me
Tell me it’s not too late
For me
For us
To walk hand in hand
On the path of eternity
All I ask is that you
Hold me tight
Assure me everything
Will be alright
Tell me that passion for me
Still burns deep down inside you
All I ask is that you
Be honest
My heart can’t take any more deceit
Kiss me
I hope that your kiss is assuring me
Of what I want and need to know
All I ask is that you
Love me
Trust me with your heart
Like I’ve trusted you with mine
Assure me
You’ll do your best to
Never break it
To love forever is our dream
Let’s work together to strive it
Don’t give up on us
No matter what
To wake up beside you daily
Would be paradise
All I ask is that you
Love me
