I AM WHATEVER YOU PERCEIVE ME TO BE

sincere apology
Forgive me because I am not that thug brother I mean I could only be that good brother You know that compassionate lover To show that I loved ya Forgive me for not hitting you only hugging ya For kissing you and not shoving ya For holding you and not punching ya Forgive me for treating you as if you had class And for not treating you like trash Or throwing you through that glass Oh, did I mention for not putting my foot in your ass… I thought you were on that other shit when you said that I was too nice But I guess it is us good men who always have to pay price I'm sorry my mouth is not full of platinum and gold My feelings for you are not heartless and cold I have a bald fade instead of cornrows And I'm truly sorry that the bracelet I bought you Is not worth more than the ring you ex-boyfriend stole I apologize that I mostly wear ties and suits Instead of du-rags and boots I'm sorry that I try to keep the lights on Instead of worrying about how much ice I got on I apologize that I can't bleed the block And run from cops I mean I would, by my time is consumed by this 9 to 5 job I got I apologize I don't disown my kids and keep up with drama And I'm terribly sorry I don't have four or five baby mamas I'm truly sorry that I don't spend most of my time with my patnas playing sports And I wear 3-piece suits even though I don't go to court I'm sorry my name is not caught up in the he said, she said, you heard it And that I don't have guilty of criminal charges verdicts I'm trying to figure out what I've done for you not to like me Please forgive the fact that I'm not "all in the club spitting game in my white tee" I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me So please accept my sarcastic, I mean sincere apology
A collection of sweet voices Serenading Love Inducing words in his ear His body frozen in incertitude He has been a revolving door mat for soiled heels A collage of fragrances dancing at his nose Names meshed in the memory of a man in despair Caution resides in every fiber where doubt has been given actuality Appeared a soul illuminated by optimism She picked up the mat and washed it Hung it on the wall as a prized piece of art To be cherished He died in her arms from his former self
