Turning The Table

Out on a date with a girl I dated,
On a date I can’t recall right now,
On the scene I’d seen her a lot,
And she was like the wife of Lot,
Wish I stopped and turned back,
As soon as her back was turned,
Oh, how I slipped and fell in love,
It turned to hell in love with her,

Women do mental and incremental,
Men decide on a side or step aside,
Telling my mind I became her man,
Even called me Herman one night,
Dispute, then dinner date that night,
Argued about, “all you men who..”,
She wasn’t too hard to get through,
I just lazed through the long menu,

I can still remember those eyes,
Those “I”s never turned into “we”,
But she was an expert about us,
Coitus, fabulous, surplus, minus,
Never skirted around any issues,
Until her skirt fell down her ankles,
Love makes the careless care less,
Trapped and wrapped in rhapsody,

All the ladies loved to hate on her,
I hated when I had to wait on her,
But well worth her weight in bed,
Cocked frame was never the same,
And some men would come…or go,
As a slayer player I could sway her,
On my snake oil cane she was able,
Broke the record, I turned the table,

Tipped the waiter and I dissed her,
Went missing, but still missed her,
I fucked up, and plucked up flowers,
At her door heard running showers,
Oh man, how could I still rate her?
Serving some sex with the waiter?
And said, “I love you”, but I fixed her,
She found me in bed with her sister.

Our Wedding Day

We both met as game players,
Silenced the naysayers,
Took a long time to be together,
Stayed together a long time,
I knew then right off the bat,
It might end up as a write-off,
Both had all the right assets,
We paid off debts in our hearts,

We were in complete love,
Every waking moment seen,
Sleeping moment arrested,
Passionate moment felt,
Well past prepared to plunge,
And marry my perfect partner,
I started making plans aplenty,
Nuptials for life with no pre,

We had talked about it then,
Details, designs and the date,
She vowed to avoid other men,
With us moving to a marital state,
I gave my six side girlfriends a call,
To tell them all about my new life,
Put an end to the bullshit and all,
For my woman, my world, my wife,

Planned it nut tight without a hitch,
But man they’re right, life’s a bitch,
Decided to write our wedding song,
And felt the moment it went wrong,
We couldn’t find the right notes,
Suddenly at each other’s throats,
Lies, wars, somebody seen kissing,
Choices to make the baby missing,

My love proven, tested and tried,
Her love had been rested and died,
Nothing could change how she felt,
Thoughts of her still make me melt,
She left me before tying the knot,
Without saying the why or what,
I still hope she loves me in a way,
And shows up for our wedding day.

Woman’s Way To My Heart

Everyday I’m working on the grind,
Got to know how to ease my mind,
Feel I’m in need of nurse attention,
Full view relieves the worse tension,
Six inch heels and tiny black dress,
Sensuous massage to ease stress,
Suit underneath only for birthdays,
Makes me horny in the worst ways,
Don’t need handcuffs or the whips,
Just use lips and your fingertips,
Listen up, forget about the bitching, Eating on a counter in the kitchen,
Sometimes no need to say a word,
Ain’t what’s said, but what’s heard,
Got a big band with a microphone,
Feel free to blow on my saxophone,
Prepare a menu of all that I want,
Convert your bed into a restaurant,
I’ll make sure you’re having fun too,
Got to be sure you come through,
Both knocked out and locked tight,
One more score before the sunlight,
These ain’t rules, just some advice,
A little magic can add some spice,
We’re together, not separate teams,
Trying to realise all of our dreams,
Focus on us, forget your friends,
What works for us sets the trends,
Slaving on a stove making meals?
That’s some other people’s ideals,
Scratch my stomach off your chart,
Seduction is the way to MY heart.

I Remember Us….

I remember…
Singing the song, you played keys,
Talked bullshit shooting breeze,
I was the ease, your Mac and cheese,
We cooked in the bedroom,
I remember,

I remember…
Long drives away to nowhere real,
Moments they tried hard to steal,
I was your man, our lifelong plan,
We slept on the couch,
I remember,

I remember…
Our worlds becoming the same,
Then shame, the game, the blame,
I was the king, but you shared the ring,
We slept apart forever,
I remember,

I remember…
Seeing you for the last goodbye,
The last day of your greatest lie,
Forget the rest, you were the best,
I woke up alone to life today,
I remember,
I remember…us
