Free Cee Your Guess Is As Good As Shine

A BEAUTY, A *****, AND A BASTARDIZED BUTTERFLY I remember you used to annoy me And that wasn’t at all constructive I remember you tried to destroy me And I was already self-destructive You were a person who pointed me to poison That which I required least I remember you as a beautiful beast And that you fed me fire as a feast While my maladies and madness increased As my delight and determination decreased I was resolved to rectify the ruins of a wreck While daily you tightened a rope around my neck I was killing myself slowly all alone When you came along to throw a drowning man a stone Not a rope for a man minus hope And believe me, you made it difficult to cope I was trying to outrun a dragon spewing flames And you were the kind of woman a man like me blames People knew you were precisely what I didn’t need The woman who was there when destruction was decreed A decree I called delightful for what you deemed unto me But you were a butterfly I should have set free Yet you clung to me with wings unfurled And relegated me to a wretched world You were medicine I could ill-afford A bitter pill that if swallowed could kill You caused me disappointment and total discord A beauty that didn’t fit the bill © 2012…..PHREEPOETREE ~free cee!~
