Are you sure
You want to keep me?

I nod my head,
Happily.

I want to keep
Who you’re becoming.

You are the one
I’ll never stop loving.

Floodgates
(Safety)
Holding back the feeling
A shift
in the wind
Turns to overflowing
The Pain,
Leaving me reeling...
Makenzie Marie Mar 2019
We were sailing to eternity
When you turn to tell me
There’s a hole in the hull...
(“I didn’t mean to, honestly,”
You plead).
our ship is flooding quickly
And the reel is struggling
To maintain stability.

S.O.S.
Save me
From this feeling,
I’m drowning.
Makenzie Marie Mar 2019
You treat me better
Than I’ve ever known
But just yesterday
A new seed was sewn
Your personal fears,
They became my own.
Makenzie Marie Mar 2019
I love you
To Hell and back
But when you do this to me
Unintentionally
You strike a personal attack
Caused by a simple lack
Of communicating feeling.

Father,
I know you’re listening:
Please, lift me.

Hosanna
Blessed are Ye.
Please, save me.
Makenzie Marie Mar 2019
You didn’t intend to do this
But you know what they say
About the road to hell.
And it’s full of near misses.
