I think you might have forgotten
Forgotten my cracked in half
Little doll face
But that beeping and ringing
Hands in my hair
You said I was the sexiest.

Words in circles and circles
My best friend and I drink coffee in bed
Walking in the rain with a dog that is not my own
Don't get hit by the big truck
Eyes shift and glance around,
Be grateful.

And I don't know what keeps you from me
But a computer screen and math equations, you seem to prefer
But an exotic place I hoped to bathe in, does not appear
For me, right now.
So I Dear No One, a million times
Until I find peace.

I don't think or know that you are gone
Your exclamation points and long waited answers
I strangled myself with our memories a thousand and one times
But I can't give you three months of my future
I can't give you my stamina and core
Because I need it and I gaze into the future
But right now, I dance in the now.

Long Eyelashes calls me babe and whispers I love you
When I let him do so,
But I can't say it back
But I see tattooed arms gripping and calling my name
But I turn the other way.

But its not, no
Not for you
I turn because I turn and I turn
Into the woman I long to be.

High collars, zippers, a lady tie
Red flaming mouth
I take direction and I give direction
Make the movements more smooth
As I dance so sensually
To my own melodies.

Maybe you will whisper baby and come after me
But no, I won't wait up to find out
Betrayer I know it felt so good
To see my name
But all the boys who have ruined me
I curtsey away.

Because I am a ******* belle.
