Roses are red

He *made a start
At playing hard'n
Then it fell apart
*Soft hearts
Imitate Bonaparte'n
Get blown apart
To *smithereens
The inbetweens
And flip-floppers
Who fit awkward
W/ calico curiosity'n
Fickle dreams
*Mr. Clean
@Fronts
Until the mana's @up
Spells expelled
Sit still it's time to man @up
*searching
Lured by life's numerous workings
Majestic pasture
Capturing attention
Till the Duty's shirked'n
*Duly folded'n
Til your foolishness
Is truly bloated
*2D vision
@stuck on a fin in a platoon of fishes
The mood emissions
Long removed swoop in
Droopin' feelings
Whoopty whoop
Who's him?

We were *thick as thievеs
She was into me
And I was into her
I likеd her confidence
She said
I made a proper listener
She liked to vent
I liked to make pretend we had it figured out
That I'd proposed w/ gold
Before she'd even stuck her finger out
The day dreaming
We liked late sleeping and morning sex--
She taught another man to stretch
In his apartment
He was sore she said
I said, "allowed"
I tended toward giving the benefit of doubt
My homies always told me
I might benefit from getting out
But *fuck 'em
Slowly I could
No longer trust 'em
They were envious
And saw I saw what heaven is
And they were nothing standing next to it
I'd been as dead as igneous
She raised me up like Lazarus
She used me
I mean used to say that I was talented
And said what she did wasn't cheating because
We were polyamorous--
*I'll admit
I felt a bit uncomfortable
& sad be--
Cuz we hadn't sexed for weeks
Then suddenly he's making love to you
But look what love can do?
I forgive you and believe you
I can see you
And if you hurt me then you didn't mean to
Besides
You find I'm highly sensitive sometimes
And since you know what's best for me
I let it slide and
Set it all aside
And sigh
