i stand buck toothed and frizzy haired i'm in foreign country with foreign faces she's my restute i trace my finger tips rough from the dirt under our **** cherry tree on the photograph of her outline on the bed we share i hear her from the other room she says we arent doing well thats a lie she says she has foreign blood thats a lie she says she loves me my smile cuts through as i grab my own pinky i promise myself i shall never lie if the sky is blue, it's a blue sky if the sun is hot, it's a sunny day i'd never let myself follow her way i stand glowing teeth and raven pig tails i twirl my abaya between my fingers as she asks where i'll head off i couldn't break her heart at the expense of my pleasure i mutter names, hiding out others i sit in the back seat of my drivers car, looking at my reflection in the tinted window i see her outline look back at me in her eyes i lay في عيونها in her arms i sway في قلبها صورتي وفي روحها اسمي مخيوط ما بين خلاياها بابرة دميما انا واياها وجه واحد لماذا لا تراني في المراية؟ وحيدة امي وحيدة قلبها وحيدة وقتها اعطتني نفسها i didnt ask for it i didnt ask to be given a debt of guilt i look at her, i see me i see her buck toothed with frizzy hair did she ever see me in her mother?

my mother
i stand buck toothed and frizzy haired i'm in foreign country with foreign faces she's my restute i trace my finger tips rough from the dirt under our **** cherry tree on the photograph of her outline on the bed we share i hear her from the other room she says we arent doing well thats a lie she says she has foreign blood thats a lie she says she loves me my smile cuts through as i grab my own pinky i promise myself i shall never lie if the sky is blue, it's a blue sky if the sun is hot, it's a sunny day i'd never let myself follow her way i stand glowing teeth and raven pig tails i twirl my abaya between my fingers as she asks where i'll head off i couldn't break her heart at the expense of my pleasure i mutter names, hiding out others i sit in the back seat of my drivers car, looking at my reflection in the tinted window i see her outline look back at me in her eyes i lay في عيونها in her arms i sway في قلبها صورتي وفي روحها اسمي مخيوط ما بين خلاياها بابرة دميما انا واياها وجه واحد لماذا لا تراني في المراية؟ وحيدة امي وحيدة قلبها وحيدة وقتها اعطتني نفسها i didnt ask for it i didnt ask to be given a debt of guilt i look at her, i see me i see her buck toothed with frizzy hair did she ever see me in her mother?
