I don’t cry anymore
the salt ran dry.
I don’t look up
the sky stopped looking back.
I don’t believe
in believing.

Where are you now,
God of broken pages?
That book
full of thunder,
full of fire,
full of once.

Where are the miracles
when we need them
more than ever?
Silence
—louder than prayer.

You’ve
forsaken me
in my heart,
forsaken me
in my mind,
forsaken me

Forsaken me
Sweet new relationship energy

- Polyamory
Love got a name and it's yours.
It's within you.
Deep within you.
So, the news isn't new.

Love has trust and it's yours.
Blessed by the Almighty Lord above.
Praise it, cherish it.
All because you earned it.
You’re no toy
to be played with
You’re no tool
To be used
You’re of value
The prize to be cherished
The woman to be love
Know your worth
Know you’re deserving
Not only of love, but of trust
Stay with me, leave me
Either choice please remember
Remember the love I’ve given
Remember the manner I cherish
Remember so that all other to come
Love as I loved
Cherished as I’ve cherished
Know this or more is your worth
In love we grow
In love we change
Do not turn away
Accept flaws and all
For together we heal
Together we grow
Together we change
To be loved we must know
We are imperfect beings
Yet while imperfect we stay
we love we grow we change
1. when human rights are violated
the country must return water to save life
turn off ignition at the wrench of the unions hands
This is removal of cinder
Life is not qualified by value of petrol
Rations for rations end of ratio in economy


this is the act of furloughed wage and insurance doth not bubble
