The Essence Of Who I Am

It’s never me that writes the poetry

It’s when he’s screaming at me that he writes it all quickly

It’s never me who writes the poetry

It happens when he traces his finger over my body

It’s never me that writes the poetry

It’s them whispering behind my back that echo’s back to me so loudly

It’s never me who writes the poetry

It’s the tears that form the flowing stories

It’s never me who writes the poetry

It happens when she hits the words into me

It’s never me who writes the poetry

It’s the friends that I thought were a guarantee

Or the ones that left to get a degree or went a little too far into mixology

It’s never me who writes the poetry

It’s the words of the two divorce attorneys

It’s never me who writes the poetry

It’s everyone who has ever known me

M.A.P
