Love Me Best
pushing n shoving
hugging n loving
shades of the night coloring my flesh
yet you say you love me - love me best
shaking n shouting
kissing n caressing
as
I crumble inside it's the only place I can hide
black n blue you love me best
sssshh now don't say a word
smile but don't be heard
cover up you say
ashamed of me hiding your love so no one can see - you love me best
black n blue through thick n thin our romance has died and the fight begins
struggling to survive
I often have wish you would just die.
now that I know you're dead I cannot lie I surely will not cry. a sigh of relief as a snow white cloud drifts across the brilliant blue sky. I kiss my black n blue good-bye.
