POETRY: 'Love Letter #1' By Kabriel Moorehead

Love Letter #1
by Kabriel Moorehead

What's your motivation?
My drive is to be greater than all those who came before
And yet I feel like I'm in reverse
My actions are lagged behind
Opposite of fine drinks, just decaying with time
All because of this scantron
I bubbled every letter thinkin I could never fail
Without measuring the cost of excellence
How was I supposed to know that youd show up so elegant
Unaware that I never meant to remain static
Rather I became someone else
Prince charming dissolved into the nightmarish Romeo
All in the name of a good time
A opportunity of some sort
That now has me afflicted with the sins of my father
Patiently awaiting the moment
When in your eyes I'm baptized again
And ready to join you in my rightful place on the throne
