o
nce again you managed
to take it too          far
leaving a scar
for someone else to have to doctor
while you sit at home eating imitation lobster
pathetic imposter but look what you cost her:
time wasted, completely EXPOSING
her emotions NAKED

deeply
controlling

her focus but you faked it
saying you’re not ready to begin
this thing called a relationship
so you never really committed
said it sounded too much like submitting
all you really wanted was an unwilling victim
to mention in your “homeboy” conversations
a                   self-centered                         addiction
that’s slightly intoxicating
but i’m left facing your judgement
through guilt by “mistaken identity”
needing more than the Trinity
to save me from what you created
a hated moment in time causing her to gasp
whenever you cross her mind
so my identity is tarnished
garnished with your deceptive ways
endless days of senseless pain
mistaken names and of course
you carry no shame
just your closet claim to fame
but now my identity shares the blame
an unsolicited reflection of you!
yea, you’ve made it bad for the next brotha’
who tries to make her acquaintance
now met with limited patience
no time wasted trying to figure you out
besides your intentions are already in doubt
all because of the amount of shit
you put her through, acting brand new
and because of you, i’m heavily scrutinized
and i’m her girlfriends: “word to the wise”
simply because you failed to realize
that this thing called love aint no joke
it was conceived because she truly believes
in being nurtured and pampered
only given a sample because this is a true example
of perfection, a lesson in acquired taste
not to be wasted in insulting maneuvers, emotional users
but now it’s getting confusing because now my accuser
is the one you scarred and misused!
still confused?
so let’s use another example
but unfortunately i am the example
because you didn’t give her ample time for healing
too busy dealing with your stealing
then killing her spirit, while transforming our faces
as one in the mirror, so seeing me is like seeing you
this is her true reality that i must work through
in order to pursue life’s justice, because she can’t trust it
too many times busted, so there’s no need to rush it
because right now, it’s impossible to touch it (her heart)
24 hour guard making it extremely hard to heal the stress
but time is of no essence especially when you’re nurturing
God’s special blessing, and even though my patience
will be tested, i’ll be redirecting her reality
until whenever she looks at me
no longer will she see you
