MY POETRY
Keon "Kwote" Franks

Hello for all those who don't know me and are visting this site. Thanks for taking the time out to read my poetry. As you probably know (hopefully) my name is Keon Franks. Born in Coney Island. Brooklyn stand up!
Here are a few poems I felt I should share with the world. Please email me your opinions or comments. Feel free to tell me anything, ANYTHING that you feel needs to be changed.

Chasing Destiny
Destiny defined by the dictionary is inevitable
Or necessary fate
To which a particular Person or thing is destined to.
So is it really possible to chase destiny?
If it is: why should you have to chase something that is meant to be?
What if something you thought was destiny
In the beginning...
Doesn’t quite feel like destiny no more?
Who do you blame at the point?
Is it your fault or theirs?
If you were “destined” to be with them why do you question yourself?
Should you stay or should you leave?
After awhile its hard to let someone go
That you have been with for so long
Its gotten to the point where you force
Destiny upon yourself to be with them
So I ask you again…
Is it truly possible to chase destiny?

A Womens Wish
As you roll over ON the bed
Due to the bright,
Summer sun shining
In your beautiful brown eyes
You notice me at the door...
Ready with breakfast
To serve my Queen.
As soon as your done
I pick you up and bring you
To your awaiting Throne
Surrounded by a peddle stool
Full of exotic fruits.
I undress you
Nice and slow
As I pay close attention
To each
And every
Curve
On your body...
I feed you each piece of fruit
slowly
Dipped in chocolate.
I leave you to yourself
as I set up the room...
After your bath
You are led by a
path of rose petals to the room,
Victoria’s Secret awaits you
at the edge of the bed...
Before you get dressed
I lotion your body
From head to toe
Rubbing the
Areas I know
Where the “Spot” is...
Sweet Pea fragrance fills the air.
As I gently massage your
Feet you lie back in the bed
Continuously thanking me.
But I say shhhh and kiss
your lips because your
day is far from done...
I have so much
More to offer,
More than you’ve
Ever gotten from anyone...
You kiss my lips and say,
“I love you baby”
I turn off the lights and
Hit play on the stereo.
Her favorite song comes on...
She gives me a soft
Smile as I tell her to lie down...
The blinds are closed
Only the the light from the candles
Dance of her body and
Glisten her silhouette.
I walk toward the bed
patiently
I tell her to give
herself to me.
She says,
“okay just take it slow...”
I say “don’t worry sweetie
because your in my care,
just trust me and
everything will be okay.”
She lies back down as I begin
to kiss her soft body so gently.
starting from
her lips...
to her neck...
to her breast...
to her stomach...
to her thighs...
to her...
She gives a soft giggle
as I kiss and blow on places
she never had things done to before...
I rise back up to the
top and she whispers,
“I’m ready...”
But I tell her "slow down not yet..."
I tease her a bit more until she couldn’t
take it no more and then I...
I... stop

A Womens Wish (part II)
Last time I stopped, I left your body wondering
But this time I’ll make sure I’ll take you further than ever before
No stopping I promise you this
From when you set foot in the bedroom door,
Dreams and fantasies will be satisfied
Cover you in swirls of chocolate leading from your belly
button
to your
lips

Run whipped cream from your legs to your stomach
As I
kiss and lick
your legs
you laugh
softly
As I get higher YOU BREATH..HARD..UNSTEADY in the midst of the turbulent sensation
This time I know you’re ready to get what you’ve been waiting for so long
As you feel my soft lips kiss
closer
and
closer
you slowly lie back
And passionalty grab the sheets
I give you what you want till
you
can’t
take
no more
softly, softly just lie back
Your body nearly melts into the satin sheets as I rise on top of you
You close your eyes and let out a soft loud sigh as I slowly come
Inside
you tell me
harder
please
I say no slow down as you feel the motion of me deep inside
I can feel your heart beat racing as your chest presses against mine
You try to SCREAM silently
ALMOST HIDING that you have had your orgasm
But you can’t really hide it because your body REACTS from the
slightest
touch.
I lift you from the bed and carry you to the tub
As I wash your body you slowly fall asleep
peaceful
slumber
of a beauty
you are to me.
______________________________________
Im Sorry...
I'm sorry for all I put you through,
and Iam sorry for ever hurting you.
Sorry for making you
fall in love with me,
But I'm not sorry for
falling in love with you.
Cuz I know the love you
gave me was oh so true.
I'm sorry but her and I
connected on a whole nother level.
Don't get me wrong,
I connected to you,
because you were
easy to relate to,
but she is different...
I loved you girl,
and I still do.
But my heart cant belong
to her and you too.
Deep down inside I had
hope for you.
No...
Hope for us.
We were to be together forever,
as we said.
But you let your emotions get
between you and me.
But its not your fault,
I kinda blame me.
For giving into temptation,
but you did too.
I loved you,
and that was never a lie.
Never has been and never will be.
but I hope we could still be friends
like we used to be.
I'm sorry for all I put you through.
And I'm sorry if you feel mislead and used.
But I hope you know I really did love you...

Eternity
What we have will last forever.
Nothing can break us.
Even though we know thats what
it's going to take.(eternity)
For me to be with you,
I still hold on and pray
that someday our growing
love for each other
will pull us together.
Despite all odds I'm
going to stick with you
from now till eternity.
I know that if it doesn't happen
today that tomorrow is another day.
If not this month then
sometime this year.
It will take and
eternity to break us,
but it also will take
an eternity for
me to finally be with you.
An eternity of waiting is hard to do...
But if it means I get to stay
with you I will find away
to pull through.
All because I love you.
___________________________________________
I Love You
I know I hardly say it because
I feel you already know.
But every time I do say it,
it comes from the heart
and it is true.
I may be shy at sometimes
or scared to tell you how
I feel as if I just met you.
But its because I don't
wanna seem needy even though
I really do need you.
But I will never be ashamed
to say it around my boys, my family,
or even in public.
Yes, I love you and
I'm proud of it too.
To know that I'm spending
the rest of my life with
someone like you.
As our relationship grows
I learn to appreciate
you more as my love
for you grows with us too.
I will love you today
more than yesterday,
and I will love you for
ever as if it was the
first time I've ever felt it.

5 Senses
At times I just wanna
touch, no
feel
your body like it's cotton,
the fabric of my life.
Sometimes I just wanna
taste you sweet body
like it's the fruit of Eden.
At times I wish I could see you,
not only in my dreams but in
reality so I could do what ever I please.
At times I wish I could
feel you next to me when
I'm oh so lonely.
I just wanna smell the sweet
scent of you and bask in the
ambiance of your sexy body.
I just wanna hear the sound
of your voice.
Because every time you open
your mouth a drop of heaven
pours out.
At night I wish were near so I
could steal a kiss good night
so I could touch,
no feel, taste, smell, see, hear
you and only you.
With every sense I have.
The touch,
the feel of you.
The fabric of my life.

Intwind
Me and you
Int wind
mind to mind
soul to soul
body to body
Int wind just like
two grape vines.
Your body connected to mine
me inside of you,
you on top of me.
As our hearts beat to the same rhythm,
we become on in the same.
we begin to reach our peak
but this is one race I don't mind losing.
You beat me to the top but
we still refuse to stop.
I am coming in second
but this is far from being over.
Because were gonna stay int wind
until we reach sunrise.
As our temperatures rise,
I find that my mind is lost in a trans.
But to only be bought back by the
tight squeeze of your hand.
Which means you have once again
reached your peak.
As the suns rays come in through
through the blinds,
finds its way between your body and mine,
to finally hit your beautiful brown eyes.
We stop.
To allow ourselves to unwind
mind from mind
soul from soul
body from body
But we still and always remain one
in the same.
_________________________________________
Remember
Remember us and what we had.
Not only for the good but the bad.
The happy and the sad.
The times we spent talking on the phone,
also the times that you left me all alone.
Remember the day we first meet,
and remember the day where you just left.
Remember the day where we first kissed.
Remember the day when I was most missed.
Remember the day when we got toghther,
and remember the day that you left forever.
Remember the day that I gave you this,
and remember the day we had our last kiss.

Karma
Karma has finally caught up to me,
after all this time thinking
she would never need to
find me.
But she did that night
and boy did she hurt.
I'm not really sure the pain
she felt was the same as mine.
(And you know who you are so
no need to mention names)
But I tell you this, who ever said
that sticks and stones twice fold.
Being tossed at my heart
and piercing my soul.
And I kinda know its what I get
cuz Karma owes this to me.
For hurting someone else's
feelings and thinking it wasn't gonna
come back to get me.
So Karma that night was
hello and goodbye because
I know for a fact I will
never meet again.

Unfaithful (remix)
Story of my life
Searching for the right
But it keeps avoiding me
Thought she was the one
But it seems that I am wrong
About her being right for me
And what I feel for her
Is more than just plain love
And she takes me for granted
Shes slipping from my heart
Slowly losing grip
And to me she cant be true
And I know that she is unfaithful
And its killing me inside
As long as she is happy
Ill just put my feelings aside
She doesnt see my dying
I dont wanna do this anymore
I just cant take another lie
Every time she walks out the door
Im left alone wondering why
I dont wanna hurt me anymore
I dont wanna lose this love inside
I dont want her...
to hurt me anymore
I feel it in my soul
As I pick up the phone
Preparing for some more pain
I give a soft hello
And pretend to be ok
As if my heart isnt hurting
She ask how my day
I tell her its ok
A lie I didnt need to tell
She thinks I dont know
What shes doing on the low
Shes putting me through hell
And I know that she is unfaithful
And its killing me inside
As long as she is happy
Ill just put my feelings aside
She doesnt see my dying
I dont wanna do this anymore
I just cant take another lie
Every time she walks out the door
Im left alone wondering why
I dont want her to hurt me anymore
I dont want to lose this love inside
I dont want her...
to hurt me anymore
Our love
My trust
She might as well
just take a gun and
put it to my head
get it over with
I dont wanna do this
Anymore (anymore)
I dont wanna do this anymore
I just cant take another lie
Every time she walks out the door
Im left alone wondering why
I dont wanna to hurt me anymore
I dont wanna lose this love inside
I dont want her...
to hurt me anymore
No no no
Yeah yeah yeah

Train Ride Pt.1
Admiring her smile
from across the car.
The smell of her Victoria's
Secret could even catch the
attention of cupid.
When she looked my way
I quickly turned away.
Mind all jumbled,
didn't know what to say.
So I smiled at her
and she smiled back.
We traded a few more glances
until she got up from her seat
and started walking toward me.
My heart skipped a beat as
she got closer to me.
She said, "hi my name is Beauty
and I couldn't stop thinking how
good you looked to me."
Flattered by her words I had to think quick!
Heart pounding,palms sweating,
I need to say something quick
Hi my name is Keon and I don't look as good as you do.
But, we would look even better together.
She smiled and giggled and said
"oh how sweet."
I thought I got this girl for sure
until...
Until the train ride was over
and I woke up from my slumber.
________________________________________
Train Ride Pt.2
After a hard days work I
find my way on a long train
ride home again.
Dozing of due to the motion
of the train.
Rocked like a baby inside
it's cradle.
In this dream I run into
beauty again,
but this this time I see her
at a Def Poetry session.
I'm on stage and I spot
her smile for a very quick second.
And what do I do
to my surprise.
I freeze again...
But the smell of her Vicky's
Secret quickly brings me back
to reality.
(Well at least what seems
to be reality for now.)
Flipping through the scriptures
of my black book.
I stop on the page Eden
was just written.
I close my eyes and count
to five as the words flow
my lips as it did from this
pen.
It seems as if the crowd has
disappeared and all is left
is her and I.
As the words flow from my
lips I pray for my words to be stopped.
But only by the touch
of her lips against mine.
When my poem ended the
ride did too.
As I was about to get
a standing ovation,
I woke up and realized
that Beauty was YOU!
_______________________________
Body Language
Once we hit the sheets
All words stop.
The only language you
hear is our body talk.
Nothing but deep breaths,
Screams and moans are the
Only sounds that fill
The bedroom halls.
Soft sighs and moans
As I hit your walls.
I pull out and slide deep inside,
You rise and you back arches as if
You can feel me deep
inside your stomach.
I slide in and out,
Harder...
And slower...
Your warm juices soak the
Sheets and you reach your peak.
But wait...
We aint done yet.
Cuz you see our bodies have
A whole story to tell,
But I'd hate to give it all
Up in just one poem.
Wait till part two to
See what Im gonna do...

Reflection
When I look in the mirror,
yeah I see me.
But when I look inside I know
I try to hide the truth from others.
And it hurts inside,
Pretending I'm fine...
But really at times I just wanna cry.
They say "the truth shall set you free".
But it seems to me that the truth has
bought nothing but trouble for me.
Yeah when you look at me you
may see that I'm happy,
but your heart never lies and
their is a certain point where you
cant keep living a lie all the time.
My reflection is what they see.
But the truth will always be,
that their is so much more to me
than what you see...

Getaway
He writes to get away from
the troubles of his world.
Knowing its caving in faster
than he can absorb.
With no one who cares he doesn't
have a bit of soul left to spare.
Drowning in the world despairs
they don't realize what their doing is unfair.
He tries to hide with no where to go,
with a one track mind and that's to go.
With one last life line he tries to hang on.
His world is changing so fast he
doesn't know whats going on.
If he could just getaway,
away from it all.
They could see his potential
of going very far.
So with a one track mind,
that's all he knows.
Running away from his problems
he thinks he's getting away.
But all he's really doing is
saving them for another day.
