Vid from an open mic I just spit at literally a couple of hours ago...well at least from the time of me posting this. lol. Anyway, hope ya enjoy.



I must need stronger windex
For I’ve tried to wipe away your memories from my mind
but yet, I’m still left with streaks sustaining thoughts of you
Visions of your puffy cheeks containing the reddish hue which always reminded me of a 7:15pm autumn sunset
Right before the sun meets the horizon and sits at eye level with the trees
As the rays perfectly bounces off the leaves as if it was its own reflection
Creating an asthmatic expression cuz its natural beauty is so powerful,
that it’s able to stop the expanding and contracting of my lungs
Allowing no air to dance to or from my tongue
Because the beauty comes with a mask and glove…
and steals my breath away
Leaving my jaw open in awe thinking of the right verbiage selection to describe it, however finding nothing to say…
Yet you said that I was infamous for being speechless
But these streaks distinctively reflects the color of your eyes uniqueness
which I can only take a guess to describe as
30.4% percent mahogany,
22.7% copper,
and 46.9% raw umber
But that’s just a random estimate
Cuz it’s not like I ran to home depot and started playing mix and match with paints to try to mimic it…
Nah I never did that…and if I did, then there’s no reason for me now to admit it
But I will confess that as your stare momentarily made time stand still…
That I remember wishing that I can hold you in my arms tightly and never let you go like your iris does to your pupil
And as I take the windex and keep spraying and wiping
I still see the shape and the thickness of your pink lips as you were slightly biting the bottom left corner
And while I realized how perfectly all of your features fit within your complexion
I realized at that moment that God must be a woman
because frankly…
Men just don’t color coordinate that well
And the streaks keep showing me my inner emotions of how I felt when we spoke and how I focused on not chokin’ cause I refused to add you to my long laundry list of broken dreams
And while I tend to wake up from my sleep with softspoken screams
I realized that the reality standing in front of me could possibly be the remedy and all that I was missin’
But now all that I am missin’ is you
And now that you left,
I don’t want to sit reminiscing
so I went and bought windex and some bounty paper towels cuz for this task I couldn’t trust the bargain brand
But now here I stand with an empty spray bottle and just the cardboard inner roll in my hand
Realizing that this method won’t work for cleaning your existence from my mind
Cuz that moment of when I first laid eyes on you
Is the most unblemished memory to date in my lifetime.
