Five Senses

Five Senses


When you look at me
What do you see?
Am I everything you need
Or am I just a rebound
Cause that *****with pounds didn’t work out…
When you look at me
What do you feel?
Is it my gifted talent
That I breathe with every breath in me
Or is it my positive vibes that you couldn’t get
From negative energy
When you look at me
What do you hear?
Is it a beautiful voice intelligently indulging
In life’s choice or is it the real that rolls 
Off the tip of my tongue
When you’re wrong claiming to be right
When you smell my scent of Givenchy
As I pass when I’m walking
Do you snatch me up and sex me down
Or do you daydream about your ex
And the cheapness of her scents…
How ignorant!
Maybe you’ll get it
Maybe you won’t 
But what I wanna know…is this…
When you smell my scents of Givenchy 
Do you look at me 
To touch my cheeks and immediately
Hear what you see in me 
To taste the sweetness of my lips
Or are you hypnotized by reverse psychology
Cause “real to real” don’t match false identities.
