The first time that I saw you cry
I was conflicted and also the reason why
I nearly drowned in an ocean of emotion as I tried
To apologize if I were wise I would have never lied
But the truth it seems hurts worse
When feelings are bruised by a curse
Like a storm early forecasted but the warning was missed
In a split second a kiss becomes a fist
Wrath and combat launched in a flurry and blitz
When you attacked I deployed my best defense
With pride as my armor I counter with sarcasm and wit
Checkers versus your chess my verbal sting was a swing and a miss
I relent what’s the use I can’t win truce?
