Where are you now?
Dark eyes prying,
Vying,
Preying upon blue marbles,
You cheated to win...
Why should I?
I showed him thirty eight reasons,
The father of six children,
All of peace's get,
He has fast hands.
The feel of cement upon the cheek,
Let the fist play a gentle melody upon my chin,
Spite was my reasoning,
And he wouldn't let me in...
Facedown on the sidewalk,
Cigarette smoke leaking out of the half open door.
I should have said no,
But I like gentle melodies...
Shadows upon my face,
I disown a child,
He drops and I walk,
Peace lays in my hand...
Lies lay in wait,
Living to break bread and drink my blood,
A cup of dark,
The shark was the bait,
She drinks with them...
I should have known.
Five kids for eight liars,
I don't have time to watch my life,
Heartbeats count the time I have to wait,
Dark eyes staring,
I should have seen your "what's yours is mine..."
Trust is fickle.
It wasn't the money,
It wasn't the show,
It was the look in those dark eyes...
...and the fact that she cheated to win.
