Her flaws be precise in their imperfections
Heavy metal, juke joint sweet Late nights laced with early morning flow Tempting like Big Mama’s blues on a violin tuned to hip hop Corn liquor and wine intoxicating She moves with sh*t talkin hips and speaks with knives on her tongue Her words are surgical They have that “build you up” then “tear you down” type of manner Someone should’ve told you not to get use to her praises See she’s a possessive lover She will steal them when your heart is not paying attention She will force compromise down your throat with a fistful of promises that smell of burning skin She will write love notes on your lips that feel more like war stories and obituaries written by super novas They will leave open wounds in your emotions All of her bullets will wear your name, so her trigger finger will leave holes where hope should be It would be easier if she hated you, but she wants you enough to hurt you to haunt you to stay to need And you can’t leave her because her heavy metal rocks you to your core Her juke joint sweet and sh*t talkin hips remind you of Shug Avery speaking about her father And you keep telling yourself: “My baby love me… She just don’t know it.” But she knows how to commit crimes on your flesh She knows how to make your moans sound like sirens She knows how to make orgasms resemble murder with the way she lays your body and soul down Her stroke is a full clip playing tag with your mind And spinning through the chambers of your heart So she goes straight to your bloodstream Addiction style She’s the metaphor that is never written in poems The verb that slips through your hands like ocean She be reason and rhyme behind laughter, cries and makeup sex A deferred dream attempting to find a place to exist in this chaos So she be sittin gapped leg and letting her hair down in the juke joint of your spirit Just so she ain’t got to carry the world on her shoulders all the time ALL RIGHTS RESERVED
