Sinfully Unwritten

I often feel like the word Shatter

I often feel words...

Words that can be very unbecoming

Sometimes I lose myself

In that moment... I just feel like shouting

Throwing things to the ground

Smashing and bashing...

Till I have regained my composure

Here I am fighting

...

Fighting for a sound

To be heard

Over your loud roaring

My voice is not little

So, I stand here with my fist up

Ready to fight...

I've been working hard, for eight hours

I keep glancing at the time here and there

Eight more hours to go

I'm leaning patience...

Sitting here patiently awaiting a text

Maybe even a call

Anything is better than nothing at all

Anything...

You must be thinking about me

Because you keep running through my mind

Like a slide show, that I constantly must hit PLAY and STOP on

Memories flood the pages of my mind

Each slot hitting home

If only you weren't so far away

Then maybe we could touch

Like the horizon does the sea

I feel hardened, Like a cold stone ball

I am the time 15:30

Original and small... far from important

Don't let the bastards grind you down

Latin; I think the saying goes

Nolite Te Bastardes Carborundorum

Life can be unbearable

With you I feel as free as a bird

You're the art

The artist has drawn

When they've found their muse

Old faithful

You fit into me

Like a foot does a shoe

Or a hand does a glove

Girl dontcha know I love you?

I love you like a fat kid love cake

When you've put up a fuss

And damn near drove me nuts...

When you've wiped away your makeup

Leaving honey kissed melanin

I love the mess you are

And the mess you'll become

From your stinky feet... To your messy hair

You are the optometrist

Who has rescued my blind ass...

Restoring my vision

You... You're a remarkable Black woman

Always remember you're a queen

Remember loves conquers all...

Especially me
