Love Is...

Love is everything I am, I show my crying face to her, face the hurt
First to secondary, third time worthless no
Patience what I learned when Haitian blood seep deep
Dirt red eyes bloodshot, smoke does, is blood shed in baba backyard
Divine law faith [?] and in myself, my basic flaws
Seem deeper than what they are
My timid soul weaken in the deep end
I float along, drift alone
In my momma home
Why'd my poppa die?
And poppa's poppa died
I realize his spirit embedded sacred head dresses
Bro it's been a second
Couple years like a minute, trust my intuition
Smoke breaks, nothing less than intermissions
Interceptions like safety first
On the job until the day disperse and the stars glimmering
Shimmering like a water surface in the daytime
Day's piled and what I made of em, nothing
Stories still the same played by the same cousins
In the same den, play the same games at disarray
Peace to Nak, that's my big brother
Syd's brother too, Thebe kin to us
Closes to me too, Navy Blue
In the midst of it, time spent wishing that I knew what I didn't
No vice versa, Polaris shining
On the surface scale spent the night searching for life's purpose
Hurting
