 Mar 2013 Multicolored Eyes
Kate
Light and fluffy
melts on the tip of my tongue
I worked for hours
and now you are mine alone

I squeezed the lemons
and wiped the egg whites
measured out the sugar
checked my list twice

I cleaned up the kitchen
wiped flour off my nose
turned off the cooktop
and thought of eating you whole
ode to pie.
I'm afraid

There is

Nothing

Left to say

I'm afraid

It'll make you go.
Know the level and skills of talent within
Not given a chance opportunity cut short
Risks taken others think he is mistaken
Not meant for this gig or meant for the part
Counted out brfore things start
Booed off not the stereotype
don't care to live up to hype
Different not the same trying to shame with guilt
Told never amount to sh•t
Just give up quit
Working hard to make it
Be legit with The passion
Doing all that was said
Backing everything up with truth
