A Breakup Poem

Icing one eye

another night.

No bruises some scars

Still maintaining site.

The emotional kinda wounds

Not feeling right.

Introduced him to the lifestyle

And he took flight.

Coulda brought it home

Woulda flown a kite.

Too focused on that shiny new

Baby, you say to me… Wheeeeww.

Saw another mans penis

It was hugeee.

Asked some questions

Snacked in the nude.

Loved a woman

Said she saw you.

Plenty will if only

You knew.

Shoulda flown home

P.I.C. to the rescue.

All I wanted was for you to

Come through with that new new.

Energy.

Energy.

Honey, please.

This ain’t for you to see.

Debriefing future is key.

Was gonna give you centuries.

Now it’s down to moments

Please.

Shut your mouth it’s getting

Hard to breathe.

No more pretty words

No more pretty words

Done with pretty words.

Oh yes done with pretty words.

Tattoo of a bird

No more pretty words.

Love who you want, fuck who you will.

I ain’t your teacher

Step up and shed the shit

Not a sermon, not a preacher.

Take your head out of the speaker.

Ask questions to the other leader.

I Said ride or die you said see you later.

I took the stairs you took the escalator.

I wanted to chat but you were on tour.

Talking to any lure.

Lucky I like her.

Don’t excuse your behavior.

Gotta protect self.

Your white lies like gun powder.

Gotta protect self.

Those little lies getting sour.

Gotta protect self.

Defense and tears at every hour.

Gotta protect self.

Neglecting soul dreaming of power.

Maybe we can reconnect in another lifetime.

Say goodbye, part ways, separate climb.

We’re on different paths, white lies are slime.

I’m into love, honesty, always a good rhyme.

Let’s reconvene, another time.

Friends is the demotion.

Anything more would be a fantasy potion.

Too much away will cause a commotion.

For now the best answer is

Demotion.

Eyes swollen from the oceans.

Leaking begging never gloating.

Wondering how this ship is still floating.

Wait it’s not... corroding.

Underwater this ship is going.

No more passenger it’s toting.

That’s enough about boating.

Shits over.. time to start glowing.

Peace out fathaafucka, you snoring.

Was a fun run, memories storing.

Put em on a shelf, they boring.

Bouta start life — goodnight.

Today was the last G’mornin.
