Child’s Play

Labels labels labels
Never part of our composure
Roles were extinct patterns for foreign lovers 
Misrepresenting my acquaintance 
Deliberate in refuting opportunity for closure
Closely listening and conceptualizing
Every painful moment 

I wanted to make some things clear
I’m a physical visionary painting reminded pictures with you 
Back in 98
Present in 2017
Leading you 
Providing comfort to the widowed heart 
Wedging the knives deeper into us being apart 
I dusted off my emotions box
Now home to shadowed memories

Tending to the open bar closed to late arrivals
You trudged in tardily past the welcome 
Facetiously I extended my support
Never expecting for you to exploit my bluff
Incapable of being your dream come true

I blew the smoke to your broken hearts explosion
The valves pumped aggressively 
Sending flares for a savior past my recognition 
I downplayed and evaded
Deliberately avoiding a promise
Words are all we have in reputation
The legacy of our love was enough for my dedication 
Embracing curative restoration for a friend without commitment

You were the beauty of love...
Epitomized by sunflowers after every rain shower
Yet reality shows it’s true colors
Expressively apologetic in my softest allure 
Discontinuing discontentment 
It was simply child’s play to entertain
Clearly letting my intention get lost in expectation 
Forgive me for the brisk arrival of this dictation 

You’re not...
... the one for me

Loving you from this internal distance
Home embodiment shattered by exploitation 
Governed by protection for my remaining assets 
Is the safest way to maintain the fishes in my sea
Your aquarium was no place for my amusement
Purchased tickets expired from your hearts membership 
Broken words crumbled toppling off my lips 
Disrupted girl was now on my conscience

I guess this is “sorry”.
