my mother loved many men who never loved her the same i witnessed the vile words the beatings i witnessed the harsh on an angel i knew it was wrong
when i came of age to love one of my own i did my damndest poured each layer of my love into three souls but no matter what i was treated like a filthy dog covered in ticks and fleas left to the curb to rot with the parasites that clinged for dear life onto my being
i wanted to try again. i met a boy. a sweet angelic boy i had the highest of hopes for our love to thrive i gave my all compared to the others i peeled my heart my arteries my poetic devotion and laid it all in his palm he had every part of me each thought and emotion to ever swim through my mind
unfortunately, my devotion my emotions my love messed up failed my pure intention has been mistaken for something bitter a lemon soaked moment a salty bath spilling into the crevices of our lips every nightfall we crave relief in the fresh water spring i crave the relief of forgiveness the embrace to treasure this love forevermore
but i must hold patience sadly, i am still that damn dog i will wait at the door chasing my tail in intervals begging for a change begging for my one true love to bring me that treat forgiveness.
