I Should've Let You Drown

a poem about regret

I have no more space

in between my legs for you.

you say that you honor me,

but disrespect is frequently given

sprinkled with nuances, and sly comments

then you turn around, and let your guard down

begging for a tatse of my nectar down south

you came a long way, to tear me apart then lay me out

just to play me out when your friends come around

and the sad part is, I let you.

I still protect you even after all the heckles

because I trust you, on some clown shit

held your hand into my pool, escaping death

each time I thought you were drowning.
