"reasons you are motown" a poem by Ariana Brown

1. nothing about loving you is smooth. it all scratches, like the gravel of a good song.

2. you are:

          a. dazzling black with a thick shine

          b. a loose & looping hurt

          c. an answerless question

          d. a time I missed out on

3. you will never really belong to me at all, but you linger.

4. you are the beg I remember.

5. you are alive in all my sadness.

6. there is no stopping you.

forreal though, nobody is doing it like ariana brown. a voice for the ages.
