This is not a poem
Not a letter
Just my thoughts on paper
Not a attention getter
I'm kind of tired of always being "ok"
When can I say FUCK IT
And have it my way!?!?!
I'm tired of smiling when I wanna cry
Being that friend u need
Like one of the guys!
But I'm not " ur nigga"
See "Nigga" I'm the ONE
To elevate u to another level
...SHOW U SOMETHIN'!!
But all you see is what u get
So maybe I'm at fault...
All I've been
Is your friend...
That's just gotta stop!
Never wanted it to be this way
Never wanted to care
Told myself I could handle this
But hell life just ain't fair!
Why cant I love the one that loves Me?
Why can't he just do right and see what I see?
Instead life takes a turn
And now you're my point of view
Never did I see this coming
Never thought twice about you!
You weren't my type
Hell, neither was I yours
We clicked on some other shit
Now the tables turned!
Why didn't I avoid you?
And run the other way!
Attraction so strong...
Away I couldn't stay...
I can't forgive myself for what I've done to me...
Went in blind, had no time for what I shoulda' seen...
Told myself that we could kick it
Laugh, joke-be cool...
You ain't complainin' this is perfect
But I end up the fool!
I can't do this any more
I gotta be real
Say the words that express how I really feel
You know me
I down play at all
Act like I'm the strongest chick out there
Yani never falls!
But yani just never fell, before...
This shit we got going
Brought me to the floor
I don't know what this really is
Maybe I never will
Only time will tell
And if not, my wounds will heal!
I set myself up...
Love & Friends go hand In hand
Cant have one without the other
Guess I'll never know
For you, my love goes no
Further...
SMDH!!!
