I dumped my diamonds on a distant shore

I leaked my lemons 'til they were no more

I ate and drank 'til my abs were sore

And I locked my puddin' right inside my core

And I'll never let her out- no more, no more.
Ten fingertips scratch the comforter

Of my dingy, twin-sized cot

Alone in this endeavor

Alone, and left to rot.

-

These eyes of mine are bleeding

It's scary as can be

I don't remember, in my existence

A cloak so stained with tea.

-

Her shawl flapped like a feather

As she strode the sandy walk

Blotches of Chamomile, that made me smile

Really got us both to talk.

-

Her laughter was a bubble

My mind needed a muzzle

She touched my shoulder twice

My heart needed ice.

-

She left me in a hurry

My eyes got really blurry

She gotta get back to her hubby

But it was really nice to meet me

-

Never got her number

Never got her name

Only know her freaking shawl was freaking tea-stained.

— The End —
