Fresh Start
I’m giving up on love
It doesn’t feel light like a dove—anymore
Instead what I thought I would give and ultimately receive feels like constant waves of let downs and disappointments
Treading like water up against a wall
Love hasn’t evolved
Instead I see empty tomorrows
Drifted memories and feelings
I see myself sitting by the water-alone
Without a home for my heart
I’m saying goodbye to love
And will have to continue to figure it out
Maybe I’ll find a fresh start
In time and all on my own.
Goodbye
I never thought I would look love in the face and say goodbye
I never thought the truth would cut so deep
I never lived in reality
Instead, I showed you different parts of me
Placed my hands on top of yours
Closed my eyes
Wrapped myself in thoughts of serenity
Dived into love
I never lived in reality
And I blame me
Giving
I want to have everlasting days with you
Laughs that don’t end
The ability to see each other’s flaws and provide grace from within
I want to fully trust you and fall deeply in love with my head held back free from worry and doubt
Without hesitation
I want us to be aligned but not forced
I want you to wake up everyday and choose me by choice
Honest and accepting of our true selves
Because this is me in the flesh, take it or not
Never-mind how life brought us together because it feels like we can’t live apart
I want you to look me in my eyes and see your heart
A safe space
A nurturing place
Take a walk with me
Because I want to give you all that I’ve got.
Love Under The Moon
It all begins with an idea.
Love under a moon is a natural transaction
There’s no filter, no airs, no constraints
Just trust
Just us
It’s already written
It gives
It radiates
Attaining this level of love is special not difficult
It’s just you and I
For all the moments in the future
It holds true
Together
We’ll fly under the moon.
Black Love
It all begins with an idea.
Black love
Black thought
Black dreams
It’s always there to take care of me
We’re connected in such a benevolent way
All that matters is us
All that needs to ever show up, is us
I will always give as much as you allow me to receive
And when I say give
I mean all of me
Every moment, every sound, every fiber
Black love...
Soft like the sound of rain
My safe place
The intensity is what will always draw me in
And keep me wanting more...
Black love is sweet
Just as it should be.
