If you never ask I never tell
Well
I’m not a volunteer
I sell
My thoughts for free
Exchange of yours
Pray tell
Beautiful lady what’s inside your mind
The key
To know me
Well
Before we get started
I’ll warn you
This will take years
But within that time
I’ll charm you
Maybe harm you
On that electric fence
You put your arm through
Enough voltage to disarm you
Even after I tell you
You’re not the only who
Wants to
Get to know me
Well
You say
I’m trying to push you away
Insist you know what you want
And you will stay
Get to know me
Well
It started the third day
You don’t say
She came back the next day
Convinced
I was her future
Let’s say you’re right
And you get me
Know me
Well
What will you do
Monogamy
Maybe
What you do
I see you
What you’ve been through
You need to
Heal
I can sense pain
And everything else that you
Feel
I believe
Those emotions are
Real
But you don’t know me
Well
You said you were willing to find out
Full court press
No timeouts
Committed a few turnovers
Timeout
Illegal play
And if this all makes sense
This is who I am
These poems
Are everything you need to find out
Cryptic when I write out
Stories told with a sly mouth
She recovered the ball
After a couple side outs
Served
I volleyed
Hard hits
With a couple wide outs
She said it was because of my doubts
So I stepped back in the game
And from there on it was lights out
Why pout
Thought I was going to wipe out
Didn’t I tell you
You might go through spells
That are like droughts
Hurt
Caused by my sly mouth
She endured
Read it
Grinned
Because that was the confusing part
Getting to know me
Well
Thought I was going to make it easy
Like those girls with no panties
Trying to parasail
Birds
I guess I didn’t reference it
Well
If you couldn’t get through
The difficult parts
Sift through my thoughts
And by now you don’t know me
Well
The next part isn’t for you
Because the only time I kiss
Pray tell
Is when it’s your story
And you know me
Well
