Playing With Words

I'm bitchy like stardust
twisty like seaweed lust
ivory like a statue bust

had a threesome with an ego,
a sinful, dominant angel
and a gentlemanly devil

The angel tied me up in bed
and the gentleman held my hand
and slapped my left cheek

Sometimes I lash out
Fall around and I pout
I'm a cute and sexy gal

I get ahead of myself
I think I'm not that old or awkward
I think I don't need no help

I creep out my shell
then retreat and withdraw
if you get too close

I made a scientist experiment for fun
had it go completely wrong
now my brain's fuzzed and stunned

I throw fits
I fall apart
I throw my bodyparts around
I fall, I fall, I fail
And all my poetry and words
are baptized in falsehood

You rescue me from
these screaming voices
the ocean of tortured souls

You shut me up in your mercy
and tell me to get back out there
try again face tomorrow fearlessly
