I want her smile, her lips, her hips, I want the twinkle in her eyes
that causes men to lick their lips. I want her class and taste, her charm and
grace, the aloofness of walking sure because she never worries about another
taking her place. I want what she has, because it is the opposite of me, when I
look in the mirror there is no pride in who I see. A brown girl living in a blind, vain
world, the rest stop for men when they get tired of meeting standards. Big Sis said I
need to raise my head, quit worrying about everyone else and cultivate my needs
instead, but I told Big sis that I know what I need, I need to look like her to put the
men on their knees. I need her assurance, her confidence, her face….I bet her
sex secrets are something that I need to bag up and study for the time of my chase.
Now Big Sis is hollering that I’m a disgrace. Ready to redress my soul for a man with
no face. Ready to sell my essence for the smile of a man who will never see my value
no matter what I package it in. Big sis has always been stubborn, stuck in her ways,
so it keeps her from hearing the value in what I say. I tell her why I’m willing to leave
the man that I love, for a man that admires a woman that I’m nowhere near a copy of.
It’s because she’s in the place where I wanted to be and I chose the man I’m with
now because the one I’m meant to love is too caught up in her to see. Big Sis..She
don’t even want to speak to me now, she said my loyalty and faithfulness are shattered.
My devotion to this man unfounded. Telling me I need to let Jesus in to help me get
grounded. I ignore her now. No sense in stopping my plan. When I get done fixing my
true love will finally be my man..The other woman vanquished. Defeated. She can find
some other prey. My man is in my web now. There is no arsenal I won’t pull out to make
him stay.
