As if the very magnitude of my mind
isn't good enough
You take the easy route
Penetrating your thoughts with
X-ray views of how my thighs
Manifest through my skinny jeans
As you continue to undress me
with hopeless possibilities
Of how the rest of my mocha skin
must look in the sun light of bare perfectionWhile you're mouth tries to convince me
that the thoughts running through your mind
are a non-sexual PG rated film made for children
Out of fear you force yourself
to hide your real purpose and replace it
with that of sweet words flowing
like liquid honey off your lipsHoping that the oh familiar taste
Will pull me into your trap
Of artificial intentionsBecause you so selfishly
will jump any hurdle to reach the destination
that you chose for yourselfInstead of being man enough
to give me the option to pick my mental battlesThe opportunity to reject
the tart taste of lies deceit and nonverbal misconception
You drew based off clouded judgment
because you allow your head
to think for you instead of your mindBetter yet give me the choice
to tell you that I don't do Insecure helpless boys
I only roll with secure men
Who are man enough to not sugar coat emotion
but allow it to play out like a black and white film
raw and unfazed by rejection
from one fish in a sea of millions
