Thinking out loud by: shaq

Babyshaq is an acronym.
Born a Boss Yet So Humble and Quiet
But I'm breaking my silence.
She crept up in my life like a ninja or a car thief
I fell in love in the quickness of a heart beat
She Pierced my soul like shark teeth, and its shark week
But she...
She wasn't the woman for me at the moment
I used to be timid and tiptoed around with my thoughts and emotions
Its not that I'm secretive, devious nonvocal, or unsocial.
Just private,
And Despised confrontation and commotion.
A childish prideful devotion
Fearful of being judged by my peers for loving a woman who's very conspicuous.
Temptation to air out that dirty laundry solicited my mental illnesses
Those actions would've been insidious.
So I stayed Silent.
Living a Double life on many nights my infidelities kept me from being reminded.
Years past and I wonder what's the sense.
Love can enhance the SMELL of her fragrance, the TASTE of her nectar, the feel of her TOUCH and leave a man BLINDED to all her imperfections.
And anything negative will fall on DEAF ears.
Today is the day I've broken that Silence and we can finally hear,
What I've kept concealed for so many years...
I don't hate her for what she was or love her for what her potential is
I love her for who she IS!
And it feels good to finally say it LOUD and clear.
