beautiful

*LATE NIGHT RAMBLING*
 
I pore temptation in the sky
Paint my woman like the color purple
in hopes that someone will stop and take a peek
Maybe someone will notice my madness and beautiful
At least that’s what I’ve been told
Some think that all this mess is beautiful
That’s something I will never understand
How my scars hold stars in their blood
How my blemishes look like some form of art
How my burdens make unorthodox dreams
I guess there’s a lyric in my loneliness
A baseline the fighters in the world dance to
Us shattered folks know how to bounce like light on stained glass
We mirror the night in the way we search for peace
We eclipse the moon with our sorrows
and let our art expose them to the world
It’s what we do
We live to write about it
To sing about it
We live hoping God is not always watching
because we have the tendency to f**k up
We have the tendency to cry at the sight love
because we know that people can make love hurt sometimes
But they say we are beautiful
then give us every reason not to believe it when they leave
