i'm not used to you & me
love has to be inclusive, & set to music
deducing it's elusive
after introducing, the amusement gets confusing
when seducing loses steam
ego bruised, then it screams
i'm not used to you & me
i'm used to, what i'm used to
& what i'm used to, includes you, only in my dreams
now you're here; holding me
ingesting Chopin & poetry
yes you're dope, & i'm growing weak
since you're close; all i know is flee
all i know is we, could be happy
if only i agree, to the entrapment
that you're pure satisfaction, hashtag what a queen is
since you met me, you're expecting
that could never happen, with no inconvenience
unless there's trust in between us
transparent as closed caption
& the opportunist, in us
doesn't turn us into winter
or make us passive to our tenure
as someone else prevails more attractive
now we're casper, or put out to pasture
& the winner's, whoever you're messaging, at dinner
& whoever's questioning, why i ain't in her
or at least in her arms
wrestling, my inner, saint & sinner
the ambiance of my nonchalance, it's dictated by your responses
or lack there of, where love, is calling you
here love, here's a mirror; see how i see all of you
your silence speaks volumes too; while mine's been starving you
my hand's an olive branch
cursing with curtsies & shenanigans
parlez vous; yes i do; let's review
every stanza, where my hands are, all over you
expressing a swooned vernacular, so spectacular
how is that not audible
i'm not used to you & me
