My baby’s got Curly red hair Shimmering eyes Freckles to spare Likes to play games

I like your spots I like your dots The things that make you different You’re not like them Pure specimen

I’ve never wrapped My mind around Making you feel Seen, heard, and found I didn’t know

I choose to be The Most Unclean So you can see The God in thee

I might be self-absorbed But you can’t call me selfish I work upon Myself To help us savor our dish

Shake your ass Make a pass And let’s get down to business I’ve never seen A better dream

Ain’t no mountain high Ain’t no valley nigh When you’re in my sights

Life after age eight Put downs and berates People don’t like you When they look like fools

Remembering that fateful day I wish I hadn’t run away I saw the fire in your eyes And it froze me as if a spire I thought I’d have a cooler head

Ev’ryone’s so shiny and bright Double rainbows and laser lights I guess that’s why I’ve come to c… To be the dark side of the moon

What if I watched with no judgement or saw without shame, nurtured your essence behind drawn shades?

Jonathan and Jordan Sitting in a tree M-u-s-s-i-n-g First comes souls Then comes mates

I’ve never known The salve of rest I’ve only felt Drums in my chest And when I think

I embrace your wild side And all that it entails Presence, passion, overkill And dirt beneath my nails

I missed out on Our baby’s clues I didn’t feel Her in your womb But now she’s here
