Sometimes we deserve hurt.
We depend
On someone who is bound
To change,
Rather than depending on
The One
Who is forever the same.

The coward uses flattery
To gain attention,
The brave embraces the truth
In every situation.

Obliviate me of my past memory
The only Ghost that haunts me.
It comes around the end of fall
With an iron scythe
and frozen shackles
Run chills down my bones.
A dark shadow stands tall,
blinds the path I hope to follow
Leaves me empty and shallow
With no hope for tomorrow.

I take my beliefs seriously
I Ain't no religious fanatic.
But if you want to judge me
Judge me!
I don't mind
I'm no longer blind.

It's not enough,
To live without love.
Love was on pause,
I didn't want people
to see my flaws.
I needed my space
Not another face.
But it stopped.
I'm behind brick walls
Thicker and tall
Harder to break.
With a sign
"Please go away".

But you knocked anyways
And you said
*"Beloved, I"m here to stay"
