Poem
Back To Back We Faced Each Other By Shericka Murphy I think the sun sets in his eyes I think he got wings and that sometimes he flies I hope he never dies. And He's so wise-- I think love swims in his soul He said I make him whole Man love can really take a toll. I think he loves everything And I think the man can sing. Happiness is all he can bring. And I think the flowers grow cause' he plants them for me I think the waves rise because he swims in the sea And he can be hot and cold, just like tea. He aint' broke but the love he gives is free. The richest man I ever did know And The man moves with the smoothest flow And man he makes my love grow. And he makes fun of my big toe But he loves me though I know so-- I also think the moon lights the earth cause' he told it to I think he's the reason why the cows go moo I think he's the reason why everything does what it do And I think he knew-- That I loved him when he first came on the scene I think that's why he stays so clean You know what I mean He knows how to make me feel like a lady And he he never be actin' shady He didn't ask me to love him, he made me Cause' I think his heart is made of gold His bruises are new but his pain is old Or so I was told He took my flesh and he began to mold. I officially belong to him And we both love to love when the lights are dim And we don't care about them-- Or what they have to say We do what we wish, and we wish what we may And it's okay-- And we can sleep outside and be alright We can hold each other just as tight As the night-- Falls around us, and we can hear his mother Yelling crazy things at his brother And back to back we faced each other
