Gettin' Spunky

This girl stands confused as all get out.
It could be funny but it is really sad.
Sometimes I wanna fucking shout.
But all that does is makes my heart feel bad.

I wonder do men see me as an easy mark?
A whore, a slut or flusy.
Is this what I portray because of honest remarks?
I've had my share of men that have used me.

I'm not blaming men though please don't misunderstand.
I am not as dumb as I look.
I've made tons of mistakes and been dealt the wrong hand.
That's what I get for being this open book.

I know at times I've been cheeky and audacious.
Many times I am downright sassy.
Also I am quite shy and old fashioned.
But I am far from being classy.

I just had a thought while I sit here and pen this.
Why on earth does this bother me so?
Maybe I am too hung up on myself and full of it.
Why the fuck can't I just go with the flow?

Damn it I'm tired of me.
I swear i am going to write about nature.
I have before and maybe I will again you see.
Flowers, birds, the sun and all of creation.

Can I be honest with you my friend?
I sometimes write for attention.
Yes that's what I said didn't mean to offend.
It's just a brazen truth I thought I would mention.

I cannot stand phony shit so I thought I'd be straight up.
I like laying it all right out there.
Let's get real and maybe a bit bold and flip.
That didn't rhyme but I liked the word..so who cares.

Just trying to get a laugh or a giggle or a chuckle.
That's what I'm attempting to do.
Let's loosen up and unclasp all of these buckles.
I just want to connect poetically with you.
