My Black Eyed Love

Our love is like fire

It burns at our flesh

& heats our core

It’s dangerous and exciting 

Making us crave more

 

But we are toxic 

We are pollution in the Greenland’s

We are the trash buried in the white sands

 

You push

I push back

You hurt me with your words

I Black out, I snap

 

It’s a cycle of events 

My body and heart is spent

 

I’m tired…

As we walk hand in hand 

Reignited love and affection

Matching black eyes

This loves taking over like a soul sucking infection

 

I look in the mirror 

Who is she?

I barely recognize me

 

Faded scars

& eyes bags

Shake it off

It’s time to see your boo

put on your mask

 

My Black eyed lover…

Your busted lip bae…

This thing nobody will get

They can’t understand our craze
