Intruder

The bunker allows one person

If you know Im hiding there

Why are you trying to worsen

The barricade all around like a bear

 

Hungry for my tears ready to rip me apart

You will never find an unlocked door

I won’t let you intrude my poor heart

I fear it's too late; your eyes into mine bore

 

But then you growl like the bear you are

I hurry to push you out of my sacre...

Should I Choose Myself, or Continue to Choose You?

How does one move on from betrayal and grief?

Resources swear "follow these steps to find relief".

Accept the hurt, embrace the pain,

Choose to trust your partner and learn to love again.

I accepted the hurt, I embra...

Scaring you

That much?

Why did you detest

Black people

So sudde...

My Love Is For Me, Not For You

Roses are red, violets are blue,

When I think of your love for me, I lose love for you.

What does my love feel like to me?

Being surrounded by beauty that only I can see.

 

Hidden behind my smile is someone fragile, flawed, and easily broken.

Piece That Is Missing

The piece that is missing

is the piece of my heart

that I threw like a stone

when our love fell apart.

 

Without looking I threw it
