Koffee

By Shericka Murphy

He be the Kream to my Koffee

My Butter Kream Toffee

And when he takes his hands off me...

I can't breathe as clear

And I think I can't even hear

And from my right eye falls a tear

Put your hands back on me I say

And don't let me go for as long as we lay

Cruise me and Bruise me, it's all okay

I aint in pain but I may be hurt

I wipe my tears and blood on your shirt

And we lay our bodies in the dirt

And I fall asleep with your kiss on my cheek

I close my eyes and I hear you speak

And we lay out there for almost a week

Not even this could tear us apart

Not even this could break up our heart

This isn't where we end, This is where we start

You whispered all of that into my ear

You also whispered that I should have no fear

I love it when your love is near

Is what I whispered back to you

I also whispered that I love everything you do

It was the woods, the car, and just us two

As we lay lost in this place so cold

Tight to my body is what you hold

Love is beautiful is what I was told

And God knows it was'nt no lie

You make me so happy that I start to cry

You know why---

Glass shattered everywhere and peirced my skin

But It could never reach what I carry within

And I can't even explain the feeling I felt when...

I saw the lights flashing from afar

I looked at you sleeping, and then I looked at the car

I looked back at you and I feel just how still you are

The lights got closer and a voice called out

I screamed and yelled, but you didn't even shout

I shut my mouth and I began to pout

You were so quiet that I began to smile

I realized I had not felt your heartbeat for a pretty good while

And if you leave me like this I don't even know if I'll....

Ever love again

Not another man

I don't think I can

No I don't think I can..

Ever love again

Not another man

Because he be the only Kream to my Koffee

My Butter Kream Toffee.

And when they took his hands off me...

The breath had left me....Softly...
