*MENDING OUR HEARTS*
I know I shouldn't have let you leave....
But my fears were many, more than the sands of a desert....
My voice shook that morning as you held on to my sleeves...
You had ironed on the night before, the sleeves of my shirt.
You made sure it was smooth and round as bun..
You dreamed of me getting a job and showing off...
You danced that night, your waist-beads shone like the sun...
Oh, your waist around my little brother switched my brain off...
The way your lips curled around mine...
Your fully blossomed breast being played by my fingers...
I shouted as I climaxed "You're mine"...
You smiled as your cheeks blushed, your legs shivers...
But No, you wouldn't co-operate when you heard...
I was to meet with a strange woman to get the job...
You never wanted it, you called her workers flocks in a herd...
You were so angry, you shredded on her my cup...
I think I want you back now...
I don't care about the job again...
We'll make the strange woman bow....
Just be mine again...
