"False Love"
  by Group: HOOD & Sexuality


Mac eye shadow camouflage's the purple skin
Blending the brown tones but not whats within
A disoriented heart that shows him loyalty
Immune to harsh affection
Whispering to herself while she stares at her own reflection
He
Only
Does
It
Because
He
Loves
ME
??????????????????????

Soar palms and aching knuckles
Blood drips from the brass buckle
Enormous ego
This make him feel like a man
Cruel punishment is his way of making her understand
Generations of fathers said this is what you have to do
So he tells her
I
Do
It
Because
I
Love
YOU
??????????????????????

Days of harsh treatment
Hours of Beatings
Hundreds of sorrows
Nights of fear
Countless tears
Bruised skin
Aching joints
Arrive the breaking point
She tells herself
I've
Had
Enough
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
