CODE RED LIPSTICK 

Nobel Flower Petal: Tear ducts  permanently swollen from too much stolen Joy.                            

She is the last petal hanging onto the stem of her life; Though Strong and delicate ,nothing  makes sense anymore.  

Shes been, battered in the ferocious wind.  
She’s  bobbed and weaved too long to feel,she’s numb,unable to hear your so called love calls.

Shes  beaten and withdrawn, Who cares to hear that  “too little,too late apology”.

The big smile the laughter the gleam in her eyes .
You who snuff out lights and breaks  hearts.

Bringer of relentlessly pain,
Stop being unwilling to change
and unwilling to stop doing what  you know hurts the family.

Yet you get pitifully upset when she won’t let you back into that place that she has to protect.

She has to protect what’s left for the children’s sake, for sanity. For life’s sake,for goodness sake ,  but mostly for the children.

You shall be held accountable and only God can fix this broken love.  Be still,change and pray,that’s is the only way.!

Stop trying to get her guards down,unless you know you are the one to protect, and no longer there to wreck! “ Nuff Respect “
