You wear only black
You're angry
You lock yourself away

You wear only black to hide in the shadows that others have placed you in
You're angry because you've been hurt deeply by a man who is suppose to teach you forgiveness
You lock yourself away in your room to keep anyone else from hurting you

You wear only black
You're a storm cloud
If I know anything about Storm Clouds,
It's that they end in remarkable rainbows
Paintings of God across our skies

You're angry
You've got emotion to scar people for years
That kind of power can be harnessed
For smiles that may last centuries
Your smile can be harnessed
Like diamonds in a valley of roses

You lock yourself away
The tiger you used to pretend to be when you were younger
Is scratching at the padlock
You're defiant and rebellious
Calm, silent, remarkable
Your stripes are unique and vibrant
Show them to the world
For cats remain on leashes
Tigers are the queens of jungles
Rule your kingdom
You beautiful beast
Bailey, I love you.
[Poem inspired by Wil Gisbon]
i never thought my life would turn out this way
never thought that i would be controlled by someone else
never thought i could be in so much pain from just seeing someone
never thought my heart could pound so hard from a single thought
never thought i would be so uncertain
never thought i could be so betrayed
never thought i could feel so empty
never thought i could hurt so bad
never thought i would actually have to check if my heart was still beating
never thought there was a chance i could never be repaired
never thought i could feel so weak as i was getting stronger.
never thought that it would all turn out this way by meeting you....
