love does not require change
love does not need acceptance
love does not ask for favor
love does not hunt similarities
love just does

pelicans remind the forest
of life beyond the wood
Can’t get no
Status faction
Satisfaction guaranteed
Just parakeets
A pair of beats
Commodifying
Cost of need
The price of greed
Inflates like ego
Gives you power over me
Or so you’ve seen
The dream machine
Forever justifies
The means
But in the hands again
Of people
Breaking equal
Treatises
We feed the treachery
The fallacies
Of drama queen decrees
how do I look at pictures of us and be okay with you just being a memory...
You are the morning ray
into my dreaming eyes
I enjoy you every day
as my early sunrise

You are the blooming flower
in my teeming garden
I delight in your scent
as the adoring bees

You are the gentle shower
on my yearning skin
I cherish your drizzle
as the green leaves

You are the moonlight
in my dark night
I relish your surging tide
as the ocean waves

You are the bright star
in my broken sky
I love you so much
more than anyone else
It is not
Within
My
Power
To remove myself
From the loving hands
Of the living God.
Reciting this like a mantra recently. I'm trying so hard to remember this. I feel like I've disappointed Him in so many ways. I've sinned and rebelled again and again and I truly can't believe that anyone could  love me enough to save me from myself. I don't even love myself that much. And I try hard to remember that my feelings do not overcome His power,  so I just lay in the dark, whispering "Please, Please, Please don't leave me" until I fall asleep.
