"Ready (Must Read)"
  by Ms Lips


I could taste the bullshit
As I ate a plate full of his lies

Sitting at the dinner table
As he tries to apologize

Choosing his words slowly
As I’m slowly chewing
Trying to stomach his deceit

Contemplating, if I should I cut off his dick now or wait til’ I finish my meal?

Yeah, you probably laughing
But you need to understand how I feel

As I listen to him
Search for an explanation
Of why he chose another

My body drifts away
I suddenly become deaf
And all I can see is

Him kissing her
Him rubbing her
Him touching her
Him loving her

Him saying her name
Her saying his
There bodies in sync
Neither of them missing a beat

As I watch behind the door.......

Those images play peek-a-boo in my mind
As my hearing starts restore

And I could hear him say is
“Will you forgive me?”

So I split my tongue just to hold back
From brutally attacking him with my words

Because there was no reason for me to act foolish
I would be no better than him
If I did

So I calmly got up
And looked him straight in the eye
And said
I was the star and you were the moon
And I was ready to have your sun
Ready to move mountains with my palms
Just so we could have more space
Ready to pray for God to stop time
So we could savor every moment being in each others lives
Ready to disconnect all the telephone lines
Just so our love wouldn’t be interrupted
Ready to combine your last name with my first
And show the whole world how much you meant to me

I was ready
But you weren’t

wow... this is dope and its real i was in this situation before but i'm not going to tell you what side i was on lol it was a long time ago :) but its great that you are able to articulate your emotions and replay the situation like that the part where you are zoning out and you can see them together happens to me all the time (i mean the zoneing out part) i visualize everything thanks for the inspiration

You betta say that SH^T!!!!!! it was like a march of death. your poem made it's own music and taught me the lyrics. I played that role in real life and got paid wisdom. I hope you got the same...
