About Me

My photo
I'm Lejon Mumford from Detroit Michgan. I'm 17 about to be 18 on Nov 28th. I love writing poetry and I actually started after my father passed away in December of 2006. I wrote a poem in his Obituary that i thought was really good, and it took me three months to write again and my baby inspired it in march when i wrote a poem about my father on the internet. It sparked a lot of comments on Facebook so i pretty much have been writing ever since. Although since then my writing abilities have grown and using my two favorite rappers (Eminem, Lupe) I have pulled inspiration from their lyrics time and time again. Oh and i really have gotten alot of inspiration out of Linkin Park also. When I write I'm able to become any one, which means it's a different point of view thus my name becomes Notion because I am a living concept or depiction of everything when I'm holding my pen.

I didn't know


I didn’t know I was saying goodbye to you
When I gave you tangible intangible love
What I gave you was beyond words but I’ll try to describe
Using these lips and
If I could describe your body the way I wanted too
It would be like four lines worth of ellipses
Starting off with the line
She was like an hour glass under a chocolate water fall
Where the sand froze in space because
Because time itself had to double take at such a creature being inside itself
You have never felt love so strong
When I stripped you of that lace bra and thong
Keep the high hills on
Baby
I saw the sun and the moon collide in your eyes
As our bodies held together so tightly
Baby
I’ve never been so close too…
So joined with in…
So connected in sync…
So far got damn deep…
So on the brink of passing the walls your body denies me reach
But I’m already feeling your stomach
So there is no need
Right there I gripped the bed
And I fed you a dream
Full of leaps and bounds off of skyscrapers
Attached together by the mountains stemming from the ocean floors
And right before you enter my seas
I told you without a word
Just a glance
To never worry and that I would keep you
For all time
Your mine
You looked at me with such awe in your eyes
But not with surprise
But with a look of acceptance
When you shook I held you
And told my baby I love her
I love her so much
I love you
That was the last time I ever saw you
And held you
And felt you
That was when I said goodbye to Love
Hopefully we’ll love again
