The poison I’ve consumed is enough to **** a lion
Or love
At least I hope so

Because you’ve spent my energies
******* them dry so you have a place to store your bittersweet temptation
And I know I’ve helped clean them out
But that’s because I care more than I want to
More than is healthy for one person in a two person relationship

I can’t take care of you if I can’t take care of me
So it’s time for me to shed the skin that you’re so familiar with
Time to grow new hair that you haven’t touched
Time to grow a new heart to replace the one that I ripped out of my very own chest to give to you
You didn’t want it ‘til I stopped offering it
So why should I offer you anything more?

It’s taken a long time for me to get to this place
A place where I can stand alone and be content with myself
Because within this mound I stand on of skin and bones
Is a soul that needs to be touched and loved
I am more than a body, let alone a body for your human feasting
I am a shining, beacon of hope

I am loved by many
And it’s only now I realize I don’t need you

Unfortunately, that doesn’t make it any less difficult
For my sad, human body

She is a person who can win hearts,
Just with her beautiful watery eyes,
And with her purely innocent smile.

She has a shiny heart of 24 c.t. gold,
Akin to those beautiful watery eyes,
And her heart has a soft shiny glow.

She makes me feel proud of myself,
Not just relatives can rightly feel so,
And she loves me so it won't matter.

This is my debut
This is not up for dispute
I have a few things I want to converse with you
God gave me a gift to share with you
Anything and everything of life is beautiful
I’m what you call a living miracle
My essence, my walk, my talk, and my ways
Puts the evil doers to shame
Greatness is my name

Only for the ones who can’t read
I’m everything the maker created me to be
Living my life but reassuring I live out my infamous dream
So that little boys and little girls can seek their destiny just like me
No more fearing
More overcoming
This power I contain you can’t take that from me
ONLY GOD CAN!
Humble and sweet, yes that’s me
I’ll have you adoring the way I speak
Every bit of five feet plus three
Natural hair and petite
Living eccentric and free
Use my thoughts to eat
I repeat
This is my debut
This is not up for dispute
Thank you
