My Girl - Emily

poem by KC writer Joni Wilson aka Amenimity

I am so in love with her

Turn your head away

Turn away far from here

So perfect

Perfectly flawed

That I might give myself

My soul

To redeeming

What I know

Sex, Drugs and alcohol

Killed us both

Still killing her

Eating inside me

Come on sweetie

Love to love me

My hopeless baby

She could just have me

The life is fun

Highway patrol

The life is fast

For no one knows

I knew the stars

Burn down to her

Fast lane, fast cars

Pretty lost girl

And all that I have

All that I know

Don’t even compare

To this love that grows

Inside my head

Inside my soul

Forgive me baby

You never know

How to kill the feelings

Bless this mess that I’ve caused

Between the two of them

And someday I will recover
