Woman is my nameA Poem by butterfly
California Proud
Native of the Oakland Town Where will I go now My dream echoes surround I have been found I have walked this dreary desert Through dry rocks of hurt I gave it all You took my heart to pin on your wall Nothing but a trophy hunter Why do I bother? He comes to me like a saint When in the rain all the light washes off like paint Oh why do we treat others this way I gave you love You replied with something insane Now today it rains Clean me good Lord I am tired of these sinful doors I am a girl trying to live life I am not trying to break any rules Then he plays me for fools We are catching butterflies Blinded by his kryptonite eyes I loved every minute of that night if its all I get then I guess its fine I can't just tie a rope around his neck pull him around like a trapped horse True love cant be forced Still he hasn't tapped in to my power source I can't seem to win the fight So I will just surrender to the dream circulating in my heart and mind I will believe in life, God and love Only JC is the true one sent from above I will not let myself hide These scars and mistakes I made The memories can't erase I won't let the b******s grind me down with shame Woman is my name Its my choice to carry life or abort Anyway isn't life short No matter the reason no matter the season When you pluck the flower from the garden spit out the watermelon seed walk by the guy sleeping on the street We all did what we need Pigs and chickens weren't just born for us to eat We can just eat grass and still feed Yet we are human and we never know what we do So forgive me and I forgive you harden not your heart we are the last guardians of the light in the stormy weather night I am still an angel forever shining bright He is nothing but a trophy hunter Breaking hearts convinced himself its fun when we have been abused its hard to define right and wrong With you I don't belong So now I never will bother Don't be a trophy hunter collecting hearts for a wall catch someone when they fall when life is hard don't make it harder stop trying to send poor women, raped women to their last breath when you can't breathe is it smarter to just drop them in to the fire Evil encourages the trophy hunter You are no savior No conservertor Just a life aborter For the fun of holding a gun Instead encourage peace and love Cant be a saint When all the light washes away like paint Woman is my name We are all one and the same Cant throw your stone Only the one who can never does He is love Reminding when it comes from above share it on earth When it is there when we birth maybe we will find a better world With reasons to bother without the need for a trophy hunter I want to love and find my lover I want to be his Oakland B***h I want him to miss my kiss on his lips I want to be the only thing he needs For now he only exists in my dreams It echoes all around I am California proud Native Oakland town I can hear the beat of my own heart now Doesn't that count too? I feel like I am enough for him He forgives us for our sin why can't we Got to get rid of the insane judgementality I should be enough for you I am nobody's darling and its cool Woman is my name and the b******s won't grind me down with shame. © 2019 butterfly |
