Enigma

An enigma to you

To myself 

To life and all it’s mess

Creating worthless gems 

Creating pointless hymns

I cry out to you 

And you are me

Puzzled at the thought of chivalry 

Trying to define the rest of you

Getting the best of you and still I say

Me too.

I have gone through this 

I’ve gone through this

I was gone through this 

Drawn to this

Bc seeds were planted 

Upper handed

Privileged even 

To smell unrecognizable semen 

Facing darkness like a demon 

Uplifting hearts through men 

I tweeted you

Replying faintly I gasped at the concern 

Something willing to learn 

Your ego willing to earn 

So why does my soul cry?

Whose gaze am I looking at through tired eyes? 

Is this true? 

I’m hellbent in

The spells went over sin 

An enigma to my kin 

A revelation for my kids 

I say, today, that I am brand new 

Steady paced, somewhat blue 

Minute and slim

On troubled skin 

I can’t make out what this deal is to win 

Fallback from fevers 

How clever this teether 

To know what grows in my mouth

More clout less doubt 

More space more out 

I push you pull

You’ve gone away to a land of null 

Unforgettable and unforgiving this day

Unapologetically who I am. They say...
