You linger like a tattooKissing my skin the way you like to doYou should be an illegal drugMake girls cry and then go to their room after they look down and shrugI don’t forgive youBut I’m not mad at youI understand why tou are the way you areAll the pain left you with two different types of scarsThe visualAnd the mental, non-physicalOnly somebody like you would knowOnly somebody like me would knowCause everybody miss judges meThey dismiss me as innocent and prettyWhen deep down I’m a soul that’s suffered unimaginable miseryI had to construct myself like the US workers did for the Statue of LibertyYou have to work for something in order to feel deserving the salutes that they give to youWork until you’re physically or mentally black & blueIt’s like we’re eachuthers mirrorsBut I can’t differentiate what I see hereOne labor or the otherAll I know is that to society you’re just my ex loverBut when the cycle isn’t overTo me you aren’t just an ex loverOverlapping discussionsAlmost got sent to an institutionPuzzle pieces to each otherAnd our journeys are the friends of all the othersIt’s a big pictureBut are we truly meant to be a different colored sand mixture?Sometimes I lose my passion for anythingTil you send me goosebumps and you make me feel absolutely everythingNothing is guaranteedBut we’re still tied to each other in the books in the dead’s library
