National Poetry Month “Where’s my King?” by @queenofthebeast

purp2

You wonder why, I’m so mean?

Cause it ain’t easy, being Queen

I might be mean, but I keep it real

Even when, it’s not ideal

You can judge, you can pretend

But what you tell me, you can’t defend

You think I’m stupid, and I might be crazy

But truth is, you’re too damn lazy

Too damn lazy to realize

That all you need is right inside

You need to dig deeper, than what you see

Cause what you see, can’t set you free

It’s smoke and mirrors, its half truths

That’s how you see things in your youth

But now you’re grown, so be a man

Talk to your Maker, He understands

It’s time to stand, for what is right

But you’ve already taken flight

You’ve taken no responsibility

For the person, you came to be

Why can’t you see, what I see?

That you were created, made for me

To stand by me and conquer together

But you’re only around, during fair weather

Never ready to weather the storm

Never venturing out of the norm

It ain’t easy being Queen

Being a Queen without her King

But I need a King, in his rightful place

Who knows that this is not a race

Who knows that it’s our journey together

Who knows together, we’re much better

But you tear down, what has been built

Cause you can’t see past, your own guilt

Now I forgive you, so why can’t you?

Forgive yourself, and see it through

See it through, see past your pain

I’ll walk with you, through the rain

I just need a king, to adjust my crown

When things get tough and I’m feeling down

To remind me that you got my back

And what we face, don’t mean jack

Cause you got me and I got you

And God’s got us, and He’s right on cue

What God put together, can’t separate

Let them try, they’ll seal their fate

Now take your sword and shield and fight

Cause He will come, like thief in the night

Let us pray, to become one

Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done

So be the King you were created to be

And I’ll stand by you, as your Queen
