OK so I loved this poem but I don't know what it is called..
It goes like this

Just some wings heart and a destiney to find you mine.
I adapted to your breath while I slept

But then I can't remember the rest except like

You my number seven

And something about

My east

If any one can help
Thanks

I wrote a poem that took me three and a half years to write only 3/4ths of. After the fourth year, the title came to me and I was able to finish it. Force and creativity do not mix. Take all the time in the world for your great work of art.

I googled as many keywords as I could, but nothing popped up. Can you remember any more of it?

Could this be part of the poem that you are looking for?

"..just some wings heart
and a destiny to find
you mine

i adapted to your
breath while you slept
did you know
i saw heaven in your
smile heard gospel
in your laugh
you my number
seven my east..."

Is there anything I can really say?

Here is another thing that might be all of the poem:

An excerpt from Suheir Hammad's spoken word poetry Angels Get No Maps

I

Just some wings heart

And a destiny to find

You mine



I adapted to your

Breath while I slept

Did you know

I saw heaven in your

Smile heard gospel

In your laugh

You my number

Seven my east



My hip

The hop

Finshed each other's

Thoughts called each other

At the same time

The right time

Our conversation rhymed



I'm trying to write

This as though we ain't

Over as though you

Coming back

But you never got a map

Busy spreadin

Wings let go

My hand



And I have yet to learn how

To say goodbye

To those

I love

So I

Write these poems too late

And everyone leaves all over

Again

This is for you

Angel

iii

And me angel

I'm trying to write this

In honor of your divinity

But I keep thinking

About how lonely

It is to write about

Someone instead of

Being with someone



And I miss your holiness

And all that

But I miss the man

You are and the

Man I love



If my love were

Enough it would

Mend your flight

Lighten your load

And remind you

God



Seven times I've run

Between you and my heart

Trying to help navigate you

Love you

Enough

Alone I write this

For you

And fold my wings

Over my heart

Fear from hurt

My belly brunin desert



Hoping our destiny

Is eternity

Is shared

Is yet

To come
