Marietta Appliance Repair and Sales
Is the business name we have
made for ourselves
And it's nothing big or fancy
but it's paying the bills
Finally
I can see
A light at the end of the tunnel
Because my Jimmy and me
are finally free from the hell
we made for ourselves
Yeah, I know that most of you
don't know me or my baby
Or the rest of our story
But that's ok
It's really fine and dandy
as my daddy would say
This isn't for you
It's for my tried and true
good ole buddies who
know everything
that we have been through
Depression, addiction
the loss, the afflictions
And NOW
resurrection
Recessatation
Blue Morpho Wolf
Butterfly compilation
I've learned a few new skills
Like the mechanics
of a washing machine's agitation
Maybe boring to some
but to me it's a grand
new sensation to see
something dead
resurrected to life
Kinda like a broken woman
who is now a new wife
after being reunited
with the love of my life
Sheesh
Everything is new
and yet it's still the old me
Still keeping the time
Rhyming my rhymes
and thinking
Maybe someone
Still remembers me?
Well if not
Don't think I'm gonna get caught
in the melancholy
That's behind me
But I still think of you
my dear friends from when
all the words were black and blue
I wanted to say
Hey
Tell you that I love you
and finally
If you think this poem sucks
you're probably right
but today
It's all I have
so go ahead and critique
take me back to yesterday
