what’s the point of us
when we have all but trust?
we couldn’t convert lust
what we thought was a must
and now all that remains is dust

before you came it was hell
with you i'd hoped it'd go well
but it didn't last, the spell
all you've left behind is a shell
on it i will no longer dwell
consider this as my farewell

Between cups of kisses
He and I put back the pieces
Left by past lovers
Out of caprice
Aborted missions
We carried fissures
Regretting old wishes
He and I swore, no more guises
Only sweet promises
For every sunrise
That blesses our eyes

I live in a body that’s no longer mine
You shouldn’t stress, you look fine
Friends tell me from time to time
I add to my water half a lime
I look for weight busters online
My hips still choke my waistline
It costs me a pretty dime
every day when I’m on lunchtime
Riding farther from my knees is my hemline
Surely there’s another way to cloud nine?

you'll never go any higher
if after every time
your knees fold under
you don't get up as a fighter

Time hasn’t been kind
to what’s on my mind
especially you who I find
hard to leave behind

the journey to my truths
started with too many lies
that’s how I know
yesterday’s pain
and today’s sorrow
will be tomorrow’s joy

A hint of spices
In his meat slices
His hackles rise
He's ready to scythe
The imbecile
Who ruined his appetite
