She's Flawless Anyway
There’s this girl I know
and her smile has always reminded me of a piano
black and white
showing where she’s hit the flats or its been too sharp in life
there are gaps, gaping wide like tiny abysses to fall in when they give her kisses,
someone trapped, someone finally ready to listen
and not just leave, like they always do
Her father’s lullabies were full of sweat and blood and tears and grunts, and groans
So at the age of 13, she started soothing all sensations to sleep with burning blunts
shunning any memories of home
Her song began to slip
off the curves of her swaying hips
Most girls her age hadn't even their feet wet,
but she’d been taking dips in her gene pool so long
she figures,
why not give life a mix
A twist to the monotony of those groans
See,
She found quickly that all men make a different sound
when hitting the ground
from jumping her bones
So she’s constructing a symphony
More beautiful than that sonata from her mouth smiling back at her in the mirror
So She filled her grin with gin
And her eyes became whiskey stained glass windows into her soul
Searching for her savior and only finding snakes in the slacks of men
she’d take home
They’s slither into her body
deposit their demons and depart
So she’ll play her song instead of smiling
black and white
showing where she’s hit the flats or its been too sharp in life
See even with gaps
it still sings sweetly,
her smile has always reminded me of a piano
Missing teeth
black keys were white should be
showing where she’s hit the flats or its been too sharp in life
