Shelter in You

-

I don't wanna

chase away dark clouds.

Or let my smile fade beneath,

borrowed frowns.


I wanna settle inside,

The darkest parts of your heart.

Building an empire,

Of laughter and art.

Not a haven weak and thin. 

But a love you can stand on, 

a solid foundation. 


Being the woman

who lifts you high.

Loving you softly,

Through every 

what the fuck that you sigh. 

Through your deepest doubts.

And shadowed fears.

I want you so close,

I want you right here.


I don’t belong 

in this realm,

of fleeting hearts. 

So I’ll wait,

For you. 

I’m done with jokers and clowns,

I’m meant for something true. 


Someone real,

Someone like you. 

Someone who sees my flaws,

And my body like treasure,

Not a pretty toy just to use.


Even when I ask my heart 

To tell me the truth,

It still beats for you. 

Life may have shattered our dreams,

And turned sunny skies,

black and blue. 


But my heart still feels safe,

Seeking shelter in you.

I really hope yours will,

Someday see it too.

Let Them.

-
"Who fucked up and made you single" -Some Dude I'll never understand why people do what they do. That’s why I fucking let them. Yeah, the let them concept can sink pretty deep when their choices don't align with our desires. But I like to think of rejection as Gods protection. Even if they reject you in the worst possible way. Let them. Even if it breaks your heart. Let them. Obviously, there are limitations. We still got to be kind humans. Don’t let anyone put you in a place where you are risking your moral compass values 0r fucking safety just to let them. It’s mainly the concept of freeing yourself from their burdens that makes this so powerful. Allowing yourself to not worry what they choose, because honey, if it isn’t you, why would you fight for someone who isn’t fighting for you? Let them choose what they choose. Let them do what they do. If you can at least understand that you’ll see how powerful letting them and letting God truly can be.  Of course, I underst...

As Good As You Were Lousy

-
Why'd you have to be, As good as you were lousy. Babe,  You truly fuckin had me, Admiring reality. Then swept the rug out, From underneath me.  I've been hurt before. Falling for good looking words. How'd I not see, You had me assured. Being all opposite, From the usual dudes,  I favored.  Then turned out, To be exactly the same.  When I would've made you,  The President, Of my hall of fame. But you shot yourself down. Forging that fame into shame.  When I was stressed, You'd tell me you got this. What happened baby, What forced you, Leaping off of our cliffs. I never thought for a second, You’d do this. Remembering,  Relentless consistence. Really tried to make me all yours. Capturing me from a distance. Until shit got real. And you fucking vanished.  Cascaded, Meaning and purpose. Just to go fucking ghost, Without telling me shit. Haunting my mind As if a sniper triggered, Numerous hits. I wish I'd forget. The good guy I  Fraternized w...

Disenchanted.

-
Zero to one hundred. Rockets my emotions. Feeling somewhat, Disconnected. Making me, Teleport confusion. Even though, He don't give me a reason. How could he, He’s pretty damn fuckin amazing. Maybe it's the residue, Loving you,  Left me with. But I won't let it make me, Disenchanted. Cause it was you, Who called me crazy, For simply reactin. I won’t be triggered by fears, You fuckin created. I let that shit go, When we fuckin ended. When life kept on flying. With or without, My ride or dyin' I never stopped. I kept on going. Where I am now, People tell me, I'm glowing. You burdened my gains. As if trust and faith, Were perfectly fine to  fluctuate. Love doesn't play games, Or make moves like checkmate. Love shouldn't make, A heart deflate. It should, Uplift and hydrate. So I won't let feeling , A new thing, Make me scared straight. Maybe loving the crooks, Underlined all my mistakes. Even if my hearts,  All gas and no breaks. I'll never be jaded. I...
