Some things are never what they seem
In the beginning
Commitment
In no way your dream
Having me without the strings
Currently you want to wife me
Marriage is not my reality
Look at me
Did you neglect to study?
My hair is jet black
With light brown roots
Does that make me fake?
Because you didn’t pay attention
To authenticity
Your eyes focused on the beauty
Such a beautiful thing
To be adorned
You were captured
But you tried to keep me
Picked from a bed of roses
Not in your garden
Yet, I was put in your territory
Yes I’m a rose
Of many colors
But my thorns are prickly
Hug…but not tightly
Causing hearts to bleed
I’m so very sorry
And I say that sincerely
Like many woman I do have a dream
My fantasy is not happily ever after
I don’t want you forever
Our time can last a second
And in an instant
Another moment begins
Keep your mind on now
You don’t lose, you win
My affection
My attention
Got you lost in translation
Didn’t mean for you to fall in love
A hole you will be in by yourself
My image in there
Is only an illusion
Lover’s confusion
I stay on the surface
Gazing at love
Climbing in, is just not worth it
It’s a trap
and I’m claustrophobic
I find you irresistible
Devoted
And keen on the notion
Of pleasing you boy
But don’t go falling in love
I’m only here for you to
Enjoy
