ms.malicia johnson - *LOOK BEFORE YOU LEAP*

MY NAIL BEDS ACHE, AS I NERVOUSLY TEAR THEM AWAY.
DRIED TEARS COVER MY FACE, AS I SIT ANXIOUSLY AND WAIT.
IF THESE WALK COULD TALK, THEY WOULD TELL ME TO CALM DOWN. AND IF YOU KNEW WHAT WAS AWAITING YOUR ARRIVAL YOU WOULD HAVE TURNED AROUND. I GOT OFF EARLY TODAY, MY FRIEND HAS NO REASON NOT TO TELL ME THE TRUTH. YOU AND ANOTHER WOMEN? WALKING HAND AND HAND? BOY I CANT BELIEVE YOU! ! FIRST I HEAR YOUR CAR APPROACHING, THEN YOU YELLING BECAUSE ALL OF YOUR THINGS ARE OUTSIDE. AND I CAN SEE A WOMEN IN YOUR BACK SEAT..OH YOU MUST WANT TO DIE! I COME OUTSIDE SWINGING, DEMANDING THE TRUTH, AND DECLARING WAR! THEN THAT TRICK STEPS OUT AND YOU YELL 'MAMA GET BACK IN THE CAR! ! ' MY HEART STOPS, I FEEL SO STUPID, ALL I CAN DO IS LOOK AT YOU. BEFORE YOU TURNED AND WALKED AWAY, YOU LOOKED ME STRAIGHT IN MY FACE AND SAID..'WE ARE THROUGH.'
