Vulgarity

The way he moves screams
- Purpose

The way he silently sheds his tears

Both mine and yours
-In every way

Oh, and its in the things he won't say
-Reading between the lines like a riddle

Always black or white
-Never indecisive, never in the middle

It is all in the childlike maturity
-Of soothing words spoken in vulgarity

Absolutely gorgeous Ridding lite flares They rival us to fireworks Mingled reassurances Bless them for being wise enough to look away Like down town streets flowering rooms with crack pipes Gasp at the audacity You'...
