Waves 🌊
All in my feels.
Hardly know what to say.
You’re right next to me
Yet,
So far away.
Pills and liquor bless me
With the high
That I used to get
From being by your side.
My head was so far in the clouds
That I couldn’t see
What my friends were talkin about.
They saw right through your .
And warned me
About the pieces
That would never fit.
Leave it to me
To build a home
In the middle of the sea.
Like that,
You drift from me…
…so far away

Something for the Mind
What a beautiful day
To be
Out.
So what
If I had to
Sneak out.
The moment is stolen
But,
It’s so good
To just be
Free
For a moment.
I’ll give back
At a later date
But
As for now,
My space
Belongs to me.

Rollin
Took back my key 🔑
Took back
The parts of me 🧩
That you thought
You would always
Have.
These days,
I just get high ðŸ’
And laugh 😂
At the idea
Of the power
That you once had âš”ï¸
Never pictured myself
Not giving a *** 😈
But,
You pressed your luck 🎰
One too many times âš–ï¸
You’re so ***in beautiful 🖼
But,
I prefer
Peace of mind 🧘ðŸ½â™‚ï¸

Under Him
I wonder if he knows
What he’s doing to me
When he’s doing nothing.
He couldn’t possibly be ready
To be a husband.
But,
He’s got me
Wishing and hoping;
Shopping for wedding gowns
Out in the open.
Something tells me
That I’ll never close the deal
But,
I market myself still.
I just want him
To see the bigger picture.
I want him to enjoy my company
Even when
There is no weed or liquor.
Drunk off his smile.
High off his potential.
I have an addiction
That my heart must keep confidential.
No way I could ever be so bold
As to light candles
And spill the tea.
He’s yet to reel in himself.
<... |
Just saying some stuff.....
Left him on Read.
I bet
All he wanted was some head.
I bet he was high off of the meds.
He only calls my phone
When he’s had
More than a dose.
I’m probably
The only one or his hoes
That can host.
But,
That doesn’t mean
That I have space
For his baggage.
I’m not making room
If I can’t have the entire package.
I hate the idea
Of loving him from afar
But,
’s never right
When I allow him
To get too close to my heart.

3am 🌙
And I’m at it again;
BC powder
And pink moscato 🧪
I’ve got to come up
With a better remedy 💊
For the pain
When I’m feeling hollow 🕳
You soak me up
When you’re in a drought 🤨
I wish
You would do more
Than reign from the clouds â›…ï¸
You get so high
That you can’t be touched 🎟
I can’t even feel you
When we 🦆🦆🦆🦆
If I were stronger,
I would just say
“🦆🦆🦆🦆 it”
And turn away
But,
I’ve yet to discover
Another constellation 🌌

I’m so tired
Of watching you go.
I’m so over
Having to
Get up
And put on clothes
Just to let you out.
Thought you would have
Made this home
By now.
I hate locking the door
Behind you.
I just want to rid you
Of your mountains
But,
They’re not mine to...
(Move)
Thought our bond
Would be enough.
Thought that
I would have gotten a return
On my love...
(By now)
Thought my time
And dedication
Would be
The only required investment.
It is
My desire for your
Commitment and affection
That has me all over.

Everything but Summer and Spring
A quarter to 3
And I’m still awake.
I’m sure
I’ll be up by 8;
Staring into space,
Staring at the photographs
That I had to beg you
To take.
Your smiles were fake
But
Somehow,
I was so convinced
That our love
Was too real to break.
I break down
On the 26th of every month.
I celebrated twelve times a year
Because I just knew
You were the one.
Too many signs
Went unnoticed.
Third time
Would have been the charm
But,
I was hopeless;
Hopelessly in love,
Hopelessly invested in us.
And not once
Did you hesitate
To put your power to use.
You rubbed glitter across my noose
And acted as if&nb... |

Aren’t you tired of settling?
Are you tired of meddling
With things
That don’t concern you?
Cold stoves
Can burn too.
It’s all about perception.
Choose your direction
And swear by it.
Don’t dare turn around
Just because
You find yourself
Surrounded
By people who are nearsighted.
People come
And move around.
Sometimes,
You’ll have the worst experiences
On your favorite part of town.
Doesn’t mean
It’s time to change
Your area code.
Sometimes,
You just have to redeclare your soul…
…To be
Free

The Down
Why is there friction?
What am I missing?
Why is it so hard for us
To connect?
You chose to redirect
Your energy,
Left me to second guess
My own identity.
I went out of my way
To get in character,
Put on a show.
Gave the best performance
Of my life
Only to find out
That you preferred
The curtains closed.
You preferred me
To never say a word
Or even make a gesture.
You wanted me to silently
Take the pressure
Of you going
In and out.
You had my soul
So far up
In the clouds
That I couldn’t bring myself
To jump
Even after giving
More than enough.
Who really wants
To hit the ground
