Graceful Ignorance


my beautiful girl
with your skin so supple
your eyes squinting
from the radiant sun
you look uneasy,
adlibs plague your speech
thoughts on heroin
blood racing
notice the way ur eyes well up
with impending laughter
your smile sends bursts
of joy through my heart of clay
the same one you once enchanted
it’s weird that I see all
but knew absolutely nothing
it kills me to know u play
it seems as though my
beautiful girl is running
running from the one she knows best
my bronze skinned girl with
your long locks and spotted face
love grows for you
thick and plump
ready for ur harvest
