Lyrics
Parried attacks from the acrid acid
By cold chill silence from a heart, that's tragic
You see, Taraji-n-Perry honey moonlights
Over just Acrimony and Netflix1
Pearl looms2 over like soda, cans shook up
Ears perked, fear lingering, the next outburst
Hoping time would be fizzling the greatest of curse3
Two lost childs, who didn't know their own self worth
Now Adult Children learning their, own self hurt4
That's just how it is when your doing this here work
Of falling in love, of having a cub
That’s why we still here singing, “One Love”

[The Greek Moirai] Fates loom—well actually, Clotho held the distaff (the staff holding the raw wool) and spun the thread using a spindle (not a loom), Any who, a relationship fated for doom is what I’m getting at, written by “The sun the stars the moon”? This is How You Lose Her[/Him] (by Junot Díaz)? Unless these two reverse the greatest of ancient ancestral curse(s) before the Garden of Eden. That handed down hurt from womb to tomb. ↩

Some say, “time heals all wounds,” yet in my experience, the saying often leads to procrastination. From my experience, this saying is a hopeless pray. A wish that things will fizzle out feels like I am giving up responsibility to whatever hurt feelings come up. A mindless yielding of my own power to alter past and present by acting mindfully in the here and now. ↩
