We Are! We Are!

We are! We are!
Boast our poetry
Structured now in full retreat
Pull quotes from fatal hearts
With roaring ignition
Thunderous start
What we thought was our time
Got cut short
We were wronged!
But the kisses in our diaries
Says it was our time all along
So dog dare me to chicken scratch
The minutes that brought me here
The ones that hurt a man more than he knows
Can come screaming back and save his soul
Reference key words to the feeling of now
And take not for granted the lift of a brow
Or the curving of lips
The swaying of hips
And don't let go
If you have a good grip
And we slip
At times
When we had it figured out
So when we're angry
Guaranteed we're going to shout
But when we're sad
We'll do more than just pout
We'll ink out the answers
On skin and on trees
Bottle it up and cast it out to sea
So don't ask if we're living yet
Under the dimness of stars
Cause our poetry say that
We are! We are!
