Stuck in a rut On the notion of what I thought true love was So unclear and uncut I know how I feel Not misguided nor surreal Instead my heart resembles Exposed film on a reel If only we would Just post produce what we could Cut out all the bad parts And keep only the good But that's not realistic You need methods to fix it Since ours weren't working We were destined to split Not crying this time Officially in my prime But still struggling to accept You will never be mine Now all the memories tucked away in my brain Being played on repeat, driving me insane Still feeling that heartbreak Pumping strong through my veins And knowing I won't have What we had ever again.

For(n)ever
If I laid with someone else tonight I'd know in my heart it wouldn't feel right My heart is yours, tried to take it back Now I see it doesn't work like that I'm not lonely- I just want you But you don't want me, what's a girl to do? Keep kicking myself for the things that I've done Pushing you away, making you run Far from hurtful words I said Wish I could turn back time and retread The tires worn from our relationship Unfixable problems, no way to mend it At least that's what you keep telling me "We're better separate, not as a we" But then why can't I seem to shake this feeling? Struck by true love, no cure for healing A broken heart, with broken parts Millions of pieces falling apart Picking them up one by one Only to find more and more and then some Left all alone, but I'm not afraid Because you'll always be in my heart and forever on my brain

I miss you when the cool breeze blows I miss your arms that held me close I miss your soft breath on my cheek I miss your whisper when you'd speak I miss how warm your body felt I miss how fast you made me melt I miss the passion fueled by love I miss the friendship we let go of I miss the laughs we used to share I miss your fingers through my hair I miss your silly obnoxious jokes I miss the clever words you spoke I even miss the terrible fights I miss you saying "it'll be all right" I miss every imperfection you had I miss us believing we'll never go bad But what I miss the most of all I just miss you.. my "wonderwall".

I Miss you
I unfriended you on Facebook, unfollowed on twitter & instagram All because you were and now you’re not my man I hesitated at first I truly didn’t want to But I had no choice as soon as we were through Cause the pain I feel is real from our last breakup fight You left me all alone crying through the night So why would I stay friends? What I want we cannot be You seem to think it's fine despite the hurt you caused me Now my mind’s consumed by all our memories Our laughs, your kisses & smile just feels like a distant dream How is it that I thought our love was an amazing rarity? Instead it was a messed up fate controlled by insecurity But even so I lay in bed depressed, without a plan All because I thought you were and now you’re not my man

Not My Man
I'm sick and I'm tired of these men always tellin me I gotta be round, ***** curvy and sultry To be down with the boys I must want all the novelties They fantasize about in their minds, sprinkled with misogyny  Lookin up and down, undressin me with droolin eyes Can't walk across busy streets without feelin victimized Violated in public, creeps sneakin peaks up my skirt All cause I wore tight clothes with a lower cut shirt  Is this all I am, some delectable tasty treat? Just cause you think I'm delicious don't mean I want your meat I'm vegetarian now, keep your distance please  Only hungry for life and creativity  Yearnin to grow and continue to educate Myself even if that means makin mistakes Already have media fillin my brain with these lies Don't need to be feelin your hands up my thighs No I'm not your girl, don't even wanna look at you Cuz you'll misunderstand my glance for bein into you  So what if you call me a ***** or a **** Don't care-I won't be the chick bustin your nuts Just want my mothers and daughters and sisters to know We're not created to give men any type of show We're human beings capable of thinking and feeling As well as making decisions, we have a purpose, a meaning Other than getting all **** and appealing  Silenced and bogged down by society  Women ***** and murdered, blamed for their femininity It's a shame men don't realize without us they would never be We're the only *** on this earth capable of maternity  As breeders of life we nurture and care Yet our voices seldom heard, like we're not even there It's time women put a stop to this ****** up** ideology That we matter far less than our male counterparts  - what equality? Hating on feminism just because they don’t see This world overflowing with double standards and ongoing dichotomy Between the two sexes- sure it’s not how it used to be But sexism runs rampant and will for eternity Unless we all - men and women - fight against it globally.

You awoke my heart with just one look A big warm smile was all it took With two hands on my waist you kept And guided me with every step We laughed we loved, our passion grew I just couldn't get enough of you Despite my depression and pain inside You so easily made me realize It's what's on the inside that people see But I just didn't think very much of me I hated everything I saw Even though you'd say that's my only flaw That I couldn't love myself at all And I'd keep putting up these walls "It's so simple" you'd always say, Yet I kept pushing you away Until that final fateful push Was really all it took To break everything we had Sleeping in, laughing, loving- in an instant went bad And because of me it's done You were my punching bag, too late to run Back into your arms where it was all okay It's not anymore, I couldn't make you stay Because I ended us in just one night You won't take me back. We're done. You were right.
