Melissa Bates Poem
SAVAGE
Walking tall
Head held high
Long snake eyed curls
A diamond sparkled lie
Damn girl, where'd you get them eyes
Those legs just go on for days
Scent of suga butter Neva leaves always stays
ONE OF A KIND GIRL
A WHERE DO I GET ME ONE GIRL
ALWAYS WALKIN' that WALK GIRL
SHES NEVA A TALKIN that TALK FAKE GIRL
THAT GIRL
THAT GIRLS A SAVAGE
Always got my back
Never talking back
Southern Soul
This life it's taken its toll
A look , that could stop time
That strut, stings my tongue
That girls gotta be mine
ONE OF A KIND GIRL
A WHERE DO I GET ME ONE GIRL
ALWAYS WALKIN THAT WALK GIRL
A NEVA JUST TALKIN THAT TALK FAKE GIRL
That damn girl
Seductive Smiles
Tribulations , left imperfections
Of scarred misrepresentations
Forever lasting
earth shattering
Impressions
Can't ever shake her
That girls a savage
My beautiful savage
ONE OF A KIND GIRL
A WHERE DO I GET ME ONE GIRL
My savagely beautiful girl

Melissa Bates Poem
FOREVER WHORE
Eyes like the stars in the devils sky
Don't stare too long
Won't say goodbye
Familiar touch in a unknown time
Remembered tears but don't know why
Plans disguised as sweet chaos
Last minute changes
Only thing that saves us
Wet dreams of pain
Quiet screams left to reign
One more
One too many
Always last call
Excuses feeling heavy
That girl always cums
But she never leaves
Whispers I love you
While she puts you to your knees
Beautifully destructive
Evil nightwalking queen
I've turned her
And burned her
And all things in between
My whore
I'm her king
She wouldn't have it any other way
Why don't you ask her
See what she'll say

Melissa Bates Poem
9-5 Man
Won't ever see me
Can't possibly feel me
No scars to speak of
Only ideas of
What should be
What I could be
Differences
Left miles of earth shattered roads
Only I see
SOUL WALKING WOMAN
9-5 WORKING MAN
CLOCKOUT
I KNOW YOU BLUFFIN'
PLAY THAT CONTRADICTING HAND
I've tortured souls
Slanged life's tricks from fox holes
Time behind bars
All under same sky
Same stars
The True savage Beast
Layed out my heart
You mistaken for a feast
SOUL WALKING WOMAN
9-5 WORKING MAN
CLOCKOUT
I KNOW YOU BLUFFIN'
PLAY YOUR CONTRADICTING HAND
Bring your judgement
I dare you
Reservations for two
Same fire
Same flame
Suga Coated choices out of the blue
Ya , devil I see your bet
And I ain't scare to raise you
SOUL WALKING WOMAN
9-5 WORKING MAN
CLOCKOUT
I KNOW YOU BLUFFIN'
PLAY THAT CONTRADICTING HAND
Smoking Emerald cauldrons
Pryed open windows
found no soul
Deceiving truth
honest lies
DAMN you and those hell kissed eyes
Reincarnated time
Selling me
One more line
Stories ending unfolds
Self destructing old soul
SOUL WALKING WOMAN
9-5 WORKING MAN
RESERVATIONS STILL BOOKED
SHOULD HAVE RECOGNIZED
THAT LOOK
MY REFLECTION
STILL SHOOK
JACKPOT ......TOOK

Melissa Bates Poem
Who am I
I'm the queen of a thousand moons
mother of immortal souls
Ripping out your hearts
Make my nest in your holes
Your time that's left
Borrowed from me
Collecting my payment
Soul taxed, Never Free
Blood stained smile
Spilled out guts on my alter
Tell me your future
My innocent child
Show you what you want to see
Never the true you
Inside that belly is hell's spare keys
Locked out
Wanting in
Scratching the skin off your knees
Dreams stolen , wide awake
Back alley soul contracts made
Fraudulent cheques signed with virgins blood
Wolf like reflections
Slow flow now like mud
Soul dealer
Life stealer
Innocence eater
I'm that ruler
Slut of darkness , armies march on
War beneath us, mother teach us
You are the one, the only one
Mother of one

Melissa Bates Poem
I love you
But I hate you
One look from those eyes
I adore you
Still waitin for you..to
Step up
Own up
Confess up
All those things you fight off
Like that real pain
It falls like acid rain
That damn good pain
Put it on me again
Drop me to my knees boy
You know you like it
Stop actin so damn coy
Golden stares matched
Two souls locked and lactched
Diamond cut skin
The devils made his way in
Earth shaking looks
Touches, split seconds leaving us shook
All the odds are stacked
Got that real thang
Rare thang
Natural diaster causin kinda thing
Walkin away
Always in a circle
All exits lead back to me
That is certain

Melissa Bates Poem
Turn and look at me
Lie to me, Your truth
Build me up with your dirty words
Whispered loudly, left to echo with uncouth
Disgusted Reflections
Even the mirrors have lost sight
Too many people needing to look just right,unscathed in that flawless perfect light
Why don't you move to my left
'Cause you know you ain't right
TEAR OPEN MY WOUNDS
BLEED OUT MY HEART
PLEASE, HURT ME
NEVA FRONT ME
JUST TRY AND HUNT ME
WANNA LOVE ME
CANT LOVE ME
HIT.......RESTART

Melissa Bates Poem
SOUL SICKNESS
Here I sit
All the candles burned down
Everybody's checked out
Shhhhh don't you dare make a sound
You walk in my room
My soul walks out
Fires fuelled by that look
Memories forgotten but never shook
I don't feel better
I feel worse
That sly smile you wear on that face dear child
So seductive
So perverse
My sweet sweet lil girl
Where did you go
Where is your daddy?
I told you so
Lies twice baked black& delicious
I think that evil bitch gave me her SOOUULLL SICKNESS!!!!!

Melissa Bates Poem
Still Wind
Rushing like cement across my skin
Still Wind
Stopping all the smells, my fears,my sins
Still Wind
Blowing my feet up off the ground
Making me find that stolen sound
That Still Wind
Take me back to where you knew
The real pain
Always waiting for us there
Fighting hard to keep that stare
You give me Still Wind
Show me that feeling. The one you keep
Behind that smile, it scars, i scream
So like you to let me shake and fiend
Like Still Wind
Your the one that burns my soul
Just freeze
Cant push me over
Wont bend my knees
To that Still Wind
So They say the sun will shine
To our feet we all will rise
Besides that smile, and sweet disguise
I see Still Wind

Melissa Bates Poem
Life of wisdom
Time holding back
Tryin to keep my ass on track
I ain't ever given back
What i learned
What i tried not to see
Days for days
Weeks in a haze
Knowledge being disposed
Books neva chose
Looking for dreams in the sky
But too high
To realize
Look up if you wanna find
All you lookin for
Dreams float up fool
They dont live on the floor
