I Never Knew How To Love
wouldn't it be a perfect day
the day we meet eye to eye
under the sun's beautiful gaze
of two souls meant to be one
i in my many tethered imperfections
transcended into a one crowned perfection
and you with you deep voice of a broken man
transformed into a newly created Adam
i've had my sour shares and slashes
puckered lips on camera shots followed by heartbreaking first dates
translucent skin tights of a hopeful love
selling what I didn't have, a "love" that I never had
blindly developing into another statistic
the single and unhappy
phobic to the advancing age and the biology of things
angry at how my bad girl girlfriend would end up with a great catch
yet my little bad girl catwalks threw me in a ditch somewhere
and worse my good girl moves never saved me
and here I am ...oh how I can't stand love poems and Love songs and Love this and that
chained forever to the mystery of it
maybe when you come and unlock it
then I will know how
then I will know love
