LITTLE STORY
(inspired by the song of the same name)
Rippled pages
Thumbing through these leaflets
Like I’m counting $20s
$50s $100s
Word count dancing through my mind
Always on the run and
Running and running
Always make a clean getaway
The nightmare is when all the magic stops
Boogeyman syndrome, stay away
Stimulated from the tip to of my fingers
Til the creases of your lips
These moments have rarely
But when our suns and moons eclipse
It’s more than a nice spatial event
Even bigger than the astrology
This cancer’s #1 priority
Finding monogamy
We could barking up the right trees
Built like mahogany
Our branches extend to us in open arms
In harmony
Every story has a nice soundtrack
Sounds like the right tempo
I must’ve put you on the right track
If I had only one night
I wish I could have the night back
And wish over and over again
To relive that nightcap
Kehlani has become a household name over the last few years. Known for her vulnerability in her songs, I’m glad to see the growth over the years. This past week, she released her new single, little story, set to appear on her upcoming album, blue water road.
The guitar-driven track is just another example of the artist pouring all of her emotions into her craft, a feeling creatives aim to emulate in their own work as I do mine.
