Precious Leaves (Black Girl) Black girl. Indian dress. Tell me who you got left to impress. He’s gone and left you in this mess. Of life alone with the rest of us. Young girl. You don’t have to lie. I can see it in your eye. You been giving it your best darn try. But a liar’s world never dies. Stay put. Be safe. Wonder among the trees. Go out. Learn the truth. Blow back, precious leaves. Small child. Where ever you are. Put away your hatred scars. Count the days for strength to rise. Leave all the girls bye-byes. Stay put. Be safe. Wonder among the trees. Go out. Learn the truth. Blow back, precious… Leave go now you’re dead to me anyway. I’ve used you for what you’re worth. Leave go now and take your words. I stand for good… And you stand for dirt. I’m telling you..
