Testi

You became a stranger when I became a teenager

It's funny how bad memories can erase so good ones

It's funny how we hold on tight to bad ones

So we can keep being angry and keep having good reason too

I know there were times when we were happy

But I can't seem to remember it

Somewhere between crayons and breasts I became your enemy

I only wanted to love you

Cause out of the millions and billions

Of daddies in the world you were mine

But after diving deep into bloodshot oceans

Hopeful for warmth and never finding it

A little voice in the little me started echoing

Whispers of forgetting, of just not caring

For the times when we were pals Somewhere between surviving

And living Your armor grew tougher as your heart grew weaker

See, I didn't know how hard it must have been

On the battlefield workplace trading

Life force for prejudice and paychecks

The crush of institutional racism on a man's psyche

They stole nature from your brow, planting creases

Between them where my kisses should've been

You imprinted indigo rings around her eyes

Launched ballistic missiles into the pillars of this home to control

To reclaim your power as a man, to demand

The respect stolen at your workplace

And silence rubbed the air like a gas chamber

She retaliated

With her tongue tipped in plutonium warheads

Stuck between enemy lines

We took cover under the bed

Trapped in a war zone

But confused as to who the enemies were

Now all I can remember

Never is the deafening silence of broken glass

Seconds, minutes after it had been smashed

Like spilled milk gone bad curdling pieces of stifled words and

Knotted tummies Never inflict violence on a

Woman no matter how much you think she deserves

It No matter how she cunningly provokes your anger

Just to get you to glare into her eyes

So she can feel like she still exists

Beyond the cups of coffee she perfectly brewed

To gain your affection

But no one ever taught you to be the man I needed you to be

As much a victim of patriarchy as I was

You showed me love in a language I didn't understand

You dropped it into the sweat that

Fashioned the bread you put on our table

You dyed your love into the fabric

Stitched it into the lining of my uniforms

Embedded your love in school fees, bills paid and rollerblades

You put your love everywhere around me

But to a little girl

Your temper spoke louder than your actions

And I have never been good at treasure hunts

I didn't find the love notes you hid in my warm bed

Between textbook pages in pockets of sparkly dresses

But there came a time I stopped looking for your love

And I started plotting my escape

I left with a backpack full of dreams The calcification of

Words unspoken made my bones stronger my shoulders perfectly

Sculpted by struggles my rebellion became my saving grace

And I became a leader, where I could have been a statistic

Now I've found the treasure you had hidden in my sleep

And I know you did the best you could with the little you had

Hard-working blue-collar men had no time for yoga or healing sessions

Your sweat metabolized my possibilities

Wounded boys become broken men, and no one ever

Taught you to be the dad I needed you to be

I love you

I remember now

All those times you told me I could be anything I wanted to be

How could I have forgotten you said that to me?
