What if I watched with no judgement or saw without shame, nurtured your essence behind drawn shades?

You showed me the switch And all that comes with it Karma’s a bitch

I don’t write poems for poets Flowery language, indulge us I break it down With a simpler sound And anything more would be less

I give you an inch You try for a mile I’m glad I spoke up And still made you smile

I’ve lived my life And seen some things Heard bitchin’ tunes Tasted my dreams But if you want

You don’t know me You don’t own me You don’t show me Paradise Only tease me

Flesh of my flesh Bone of my bone Please hear your partner In all his earnest If you are willing

Don’t take the past away from me It made me who I am I like the one I’ve come to be A truthful, loving man

I only care about you when You exit from my life I only ahh-pper-ec-i-ate When I can’t taste your spice I only know that you are all

I have no tricks. I have no sleeves. I have only me. And that’s enough.

I think I’ve found the reason why I threw my gut instincts aside You had a crazy, fucked up song You made me sing I knew was wrong But now, thank God, I’ve seen the…

If you think I’m gonna give up You don’t know shit about me I’m completely stubborn as fuck Ass ain’t got nothin’ on me

Hope you are a voyeur Hope you want to see What it truly means Be this human thing Offering my soul

Ever been great at Balance? Then you understand Why I tip my scales.

Give me... A campfire, Smokes, And a bottle of rum; I’ll regale you all night long.
