[Gimme My Shit Back:pre-revision]
if i have nothing else left to say
it's because i've given all my poetry away
words lost in hearts
and eyes and
in-between thighs
in promises broken before the sun
began to rise
words lost because of the congolmeration
of his brown skin melting
in
to mine
words lost at quarter to nines
and remember that time?
i begin to speak
but then
my words start to retreat
torn soldiers fighting endless fights
between whose hand i hold tommorow
and whose lips i kiss tonight
going through the motions and doing this all in spite
of the fact that i know what i feel will be too wrong to
write
about
the time his love for me smacked me in the face
and about a girl whose whole heart was embraced
for a time
then replaced
it was mine
then replaced
giving all my words away at a rapid pace
and it's true.
i'm gonna want my shit back too.
from you and you
and the one with the tattoo
give me my moans and my number
back
the things you already forgot
and give me back my poetry
coz that's my true heart.
