To all The Me I’ve Loved Before
Hawk face
all in black
hands held out
palms back
face the night
face the change
everyone’s left you
so change your name
but not me
not here
not now
got a Plane To LA
while they drove the jaguar down ended up in boys town
for a month or so
found my castle on sunset walked forever down that line slept with the Vipers
slept in the pit
woke up one morning
and lost everything
all over again
To all the Me I’ve loved before this is your time
re=design yourself
or fade through time
what once was angelic
is now untouched
the anointing is gone
they said
so I laughed at the sun
the scars run deep
the eyes glow the same
I’m out here alone now
and I don’t feel the pain
so bring on your misery
bring on your doubt
I’ve taken that all on
and shat it right out
lemon squeeze
lost in the breeze
2009
was the year I believe
I disappeared
right in front of you
and then came back again over and over
you can’t get rid of me
just like a virus
a lovely disease
To All the Me I’ve Loved Before you’ve already won.
try to knock me down
try to knock me down
try to knock me down
I just get back up
resurrection dog
reappearing ghost
pretentious soul
earnest friend
I feel at all
on the top of my skin
I wear my sleeves
for all to see….
all the Me I’ve Loved Before. KM
