I am not a poet because I see the beauty in everything

Like the way you graze the hand down your face when you first wake up

As if you're wiping away the last few remnants of yesterdays sorrow

Cause somehow you believe you'll find happiness in yesterday's tomorrow

No see I'm more of an artist gone wrong

I dont paint the perfect picture

Or sing your favorite song

No I am that tablespoon of Robitussin that hard to digest

I am that 300 hundred pound girl who you'd hate to see undressed

I am that awkward but breathtaking first kiss

That leaves that heavy but warm feeling in your chest

I need my poetry to speak for me after 13 failed attempt of a Dear John letter to my ex

 

To have the audacity to fight back, to be my Macolm X
