I Profess

By Joey Harrison

I Profess is a diverse collection of poems that reveal the inner thoughts and emotions of a romantic and a dreamer. Author Joey Harrison straight-forwardly unleashes his poetic sentiments that are filled with longings, desires, dreams, goals, and passion. In this remarkable anthology, readers will find a very distinctive choice of words that stand out from the average poetry, for this selection of words are artistic but direct, creative but precise.
No holds barred, Harrison shares his most intimate insights in a confessing fashion. In many of the poetries he shares his longing for a womans love, her attention and her desires and at the same time, he also lets readers in on the passionate aspects of his mental faculty. An eclectic piece of literature, this book shows the versatile and invigorating fresh insights of a unique man with outstanding dreams. Also readers will find Harrison defining his life through creative metaphors, whilst finding its meaning in the most ironic and contradicting of objects and places. I Profess is like a poetic emblem of a trapped soul, one that, after a long period of imprisonment, unveils its face to the world. This book is a compelling and inspiring read that serves as recognition of the inner stirrings of the human heart, mind and soul that finally comes out and dreams things that are larger than ones self.

Lines For Paper

Hello

How you doing

What’s your name

It’s nice to meet you

You know if I would have followed my schedule

I wouldn’t have had the chance to meet you

Where are you from

Oh I’m not going to stereotype you

I like you

You’re fine

Whatever you’re into

I’m into

Can we talk

I have some interesting stories you might want to listen to

And some interesting places you might want to see

Here

Take my hand

Come with me

Oh Love

Oh, love

This crazy game we play

I stop playing today

I’m serious from here on out

My love

I want you all the way

I know my love for you is real

I’m devoted to you

And lacerate when you’re not near

And sometimes in fear

Baby I’m not faking

You’ve been away so long

I want to make you moan

Let’s get it on

When we meet

It’ll be a lovely setting

We’ll have music in the background

Please no more frowns

I need you around

And the
