Jamarra Butterfield Poems

The way it all started you would have thought I was cold hearten
But someone had to make the 1st blow.
You threw your lines at me
So confident about the bullshit you speak
...

The same fibers that you constantly poked at?
And all of my garments you complained about
My dress was too short, my top was too revealing
I changed them all for you.
...

Three years
Six months
Five weeks
2 days
...

Started with the design
you called an approach
You placed it on the skin
Signature my mind
...

You sold me dreams millionaires couldn't purchase
But I never cared because I slumbered in your security
You touched my arm and my entire body trembled
You held a spell over me that I've never been able to shake
...

Always there when you need me
Rain or shine you'll see me
But when I need your assistance
I gotta, stand-in-line
...

I've prayed for you…
The one that broke her heart
That you change your ways and actions
So the next girl won't have to suffer like she did
...

I'm meaningless without you.
I need you here, beside me to comfort me.
Your arms that hold me, I feel at ease in them.
My world is halcyon when I'm with you.
...

I may be out of line for saying so,
But you were never sincere.
Don't tell me you were,
I saw straight through you.
...

Wrap your arms around me and tell me you'd never let go
Tel me I'm your only girl & you want this to grow
Show me things you never let anyone else see
When you sweet talk make sure it's only to me
...
