Know You Well

I guess it's bittersweet We've finally reached the point where we never speak There's still a longing for you that I'll never seek I'm way too prideful to ever be that weak I know you so well, that it hurts your heart It's crazy how healing is where the pain starts How do you tell yourself its over forever when you never ever dreamed of us being apart I played my part but I can't erase the tears Replace the trust, subtract the doubt or revoke the fears It's funny how we'd fight when we were near But could hardly function whenever the other wasn't there Expectation arrived when hope appeared But Manifestation occurs when the goals are clear Ima stubborn bull, you wanted me to fight for you to stay but we both know I wouldn't Hold you here I mean, Like I know your thoughts How the thought of me still has your stomach in knots How I helped you mature and think outside the box And stimulated your mental with intellectual talks You were supposed to be the Mrs. Now you're missing and I know was exactly what you're missing Reassurance and affirmation thru gentle kisses Fulfilled pleasure and a divine connection thru sinful wishes See, It starts with the innocent texting Suckers for love, it's obvious we haven't learned our lesson Discretions our secret weapon Until feelings resurface and morph into confession and deep connection Remember I loved all your Perfect Imperfections Overcame peoples objections and misconceptions I had your back, stuck in your corner And wouldn't let ANYBODY come at you crazy There were no exceptions Tryna right our wrongs, we would look towards correction Saying we were friends but constantly overstepping Somehow you end up back in my bed in my possession Vulnerable, because distance was our only protection We found comfort in each other whenever we were stressing Just being present in your presence was decompressing You telling me you forgot how much you love it here I respond by bringing it back to your recollection Whew girl your body's a blessing Why you would wear that in front of me is extremely vexing The way you're dressing needs addressing Not with words... actions speak louder thru a tongue's caressing Look at you, your skins my favorite complexion Blending with mine till different positions give it redirection No love lost as we acted on our affection, watching poetry in motion as bodies dance in Mirrored reflections I get caught staring into those Innocent eyes... They pierce my soul and then I see they're full of lies The fog lifts and then it proceeds to reveal the guise And every sliver of hopefulness begins to die All of the illusions fade away from the fairytale The relationship we once had begins to sail Then I'm reminded of all the reasons we would fail But why am I not surprised... I know you well
