It's Through Growth
jeffrey conyers Jan 2013
Somethings, you think about.
And know the answer before it comes.
You just seeking confirmation on the matter.

Some issues pushes us to see the truth of reality.

Somethings, are done for many reasons.
We just chose to question's the happenings.

They could be of our own making.
Or a higher force for a teaching.
Somethings just got to be outside our reaching it.

It's through growth we see maturity.
It's through growth we learn responsibilty.

And it comes from something we have done.

Accept This
jeffrey conyers Feb 2013
Accept this.
Accept that a person leaves when they feel their love isn't been received
Accept this.

Accept that many times you play apart of being alone.
Remember, a home is only a sweet home.
Until the love of your life feels the love is gone.

Then you're questioning why?
When the information is before your eyes.

Accept this.

In our case accept that my love is yours.
Accept this.
Accept that you are love today and forever more.

Accept this.
And acknowledge it.
For the facts are very important.

Go Home(Young Runaway)
jeffrey conyers Apr 2014
Who can you trust?
When you're a young runaway.
Not the man trying to lend you a helping hand.
Hoping to **** you the next day.

I would advise you to go home, go home.
Things will look better in the coming days.
It just the moment of confusion that has you lost.

Who can you confide in?
Hoping they understand, what's bothering you?
When you're a runaway.

If you turn to law enforcement.
The odds are great you'll be returned.
Without them investigating the reasons you ran away.

The system sometimes fails you.
When you're only wishing , they would assist you.
When you're a young runaway.

I would advise you to return, to return to solve your conflicts.
Sometimes adults has to learn the hard way.

Cold nights.
Warm days.
Hungry for a taste of food.
That you'll beg anyone that comes your way.

Who can you trust?
When you're a runaway.


Don't be a written article in the obituaries.
Where many often seem to want to ask questions?
Go home, go home.
This would be my advice.

Then I've never been in your shoes to feel your pain.

If You For The Country
jeffrey conyers Jul 2018
If you for the country?
Then I'm for you.
Careless about liberals of conservative tags.
Especially when one with kiss anyone ****.
Many of us know which one.

Listen to those political ads.
They constantly using that in political differences.
Why?
Do politicians use family values in them?
Makes many ponder this same question?
We see the present leader values doesn't measure up to any church.

Please, don't ask him to quote a scripture?

So if you for the country.
Then you got the support of many voters
jeffrey conyers Dec 2012
Love is scored,
doesn't mean a thing.
When you're on a date and they wants to know your credit score.

Love is scored,
doesn't have a chance.
When it comes to the wallet or the purse.

There's nothing wrong with seeking this information.
But you open yourself up to a broader conversation.
It might be ***.
It might be multiple lovers.
So, asking about the credit score.
Means, they request about yours.

Even, if it's the best of the best.
You might lose a lover's interest.
Cause it might seems like money is all you seek.
When the other is seeking a spouse to be.
And to them money wasn't important.

The Poetry Critic
jeffrey conyers Jun 2012
Oh, you looked at my poem
And offered your opinion.
But, who asked you?

Or even care?
You have the same priviledge to create one.
Simply by pulling words out of the air.

You states that the grammar is wrong.
As if you wrote the poem,
Its like advising God.
To hold off on the thunder storm.

You're the poetry critic.
That judge of personal views.
That creates havoc, if we offer ours of you.

We all creates.
In our very own way.
Even editors of books.

Don't put me in the mix.
When I states I never had anything fixed.
Yes, you have.
No, I had you often replies.

Don't put me in the mix.
When you got accused of doing drugs.
Just because you've got accused.
I'm high enough.
Just being loved.

People in society has this thing.
Or believing things they  wants to be.
But many of us can stand our ground.
In stating with honesty.
That's not how we get down.

I'm requesting.
Even asking.
Don't put me in the mix.
Negative things, I simply avoid it.

Friends get caught up in trouble.
Just by trying to fit in.
Whether it's robbery.
Whether it's gangs.
Events, we know don't lead to anything.

I'm just saying to those that knows me.
Don't put me in the mix.

Rumor(Just Keep On Rollin')
jeffrey conyers Aug 2012
Words stated without proof,
Can create stress?
And gulit for the parties involved.

Without a proof of evidence.
You're spreading strictly fiction.
Without facts.

Still rumors.
Just keep on rollin' from the tip of their tonques.

Strange stares.
Those odd looks.
Have you ponderin' if they might be true.
Or , least if those spreadin' them is jealous of you.

Still rumors.
Keep on rollin' from the tip of their tonques.

Its been stated.
You shouldn't accuse.
If you aware it's not true.
Because they might react to confirm it.

Excuses
jeffrey conyers Jul 2016
*******, complaining again.
Well, that group doesn't exist except when bigots speaks.
And when they speaks, it's to the group that created racial mistakes.

Who feels they still should be treated like royals?
When in truth they facing destructive backlashes for their past.

Oh, those Mexicans, them wetbacks just coming here illegally.
Strange that many gets hired by the forces in power4.
And paid less to achieve their required purpose.

Then when they are exposed as cheap-scapes.
Then trouble arises to ship them back.
And the excuses begins that many was unaware.

Yes, excuses from one group isn't nothing new.

Discrimination they drive upon.
Especially if they the ones gaining from it.
And they still trying to demand respect.

What the heck?
Like slave-masters they barely got their hands *****.

So most likely that nut might win the election.

Symbols
jeffrey conyers Feb 2013
Somethings in life is just a symbol.
All the power they process is run by others.
The Pope is the symbol of  faith.
But anything, he propose is control by other voices.

Similar to the Queen of many countries.
Where the Prime Ministers makes the powerful decisions?

We notice the symbols most in beauty pageants.
Where the women are required to act under certain provisions?
And any controversial move create a demotion.

It's strange.
It's true that many we think would be the most powerful.
Are just there for the people.

Parents seems to be more stronger to make decisions of their own.
And yes, parents operate under certain restriction.
But nothing more than the positional symbols.
It's better to president.
Where you can veto proposals of Congress?
If they refuses to agree half way.

A Hollywood's Dream
jeffrey conyers Nov 2012
It's no fable.
During the forties, who didn't admire Clark Gable?
With the common sense of Rhett Butler.

For instant.
Who didn't want to be Cary Grant?
In Affair to Remember.
Admiring and loving a woman forever.

Who doesn't know a shy man like Gary Cooper?
Who came across as a true trooper?
Who stood his ground in High Noon?

And what man didn't burn for Elizabeth Taylor?
With the beauty to make them roar like the MGM lion.
Or is it only me.

Maybe, I'm just living a Hollywood's dream.
Thinking of things I wanted to be.

Lights, Action, Camera.
Is all I use to remember.
When I was pretending be Tyrone Power.

Maybe I was Sean Connery.
Doing all the secret agents type things.
Maybe I'm the Lone Ranger or the Cisco Kid.
Out to do justice for those in need.

These are the things that fantasies do.
When you realize pretending is better than a toy.
Which has been replaced by computers.

Recruiting
jeffrey conyers Aug 2014
Love is about recruiting.
Recruiting the best applicants possible.
And in this case, a degree does not place you about others.

But one great skill is knowing, what love is?
Love and lover has different definition.
Remember this and you be a great ONE of us.

Does experience count?
Not really.
At one times, we were all in need of training.
Who was more knowledge in this subject?

Of course, we have to use process of elimination.
Just to **** off the unwanted.
All because they think they should be accepted.

Find Me, Find Love
jeffrey conyers Aug 2016
Find me, find love.
Find love, find me.

Before you say, a guy doesn't exist.
One you want to love and cherish.
Just realize, that just a myth going around.

Cause if, you find me (you find love).

Sure there are some guys that love many girls.
Who lives to conquer them?
But understand I'm not one of them.

So find me(find me)find love.

Just like you looking for a gem.
I'm looking for a diamond.
Who more than a pearl?
A woman (woman) to love forever.

So to find love, you must find me.
Or in other words, let me find you and I find my love.

jeffrey conyers Jul 2012
Once upon a time.
You did cross my mind.
Then suddenly your visionary image just faded away.

Once upon a time.
You were at the top of my mind.
Then suddenly you became a thought like yesterday.

Love can instantly become a passing thought.
If it's not right.
Your heart tells you.
Your minds dictates it.

We all seek that special individual to love.
To adore and admire.
Except bad love can expire.
And that's what happens between us.
Once upon a time.

But your memories is left behind.
It's implanted within mine.
It took hurt to teach that lesson to me.

Patience and Understanding
jeffrey conyers Jan 2015
To those that demands acceptance.
When others fight against your life style.
Comprehend patience and understanding required.

If born a boy and now chose to be transgender.
Realize patience and understanding is required.
Your mother might disagree, it's her right.
Nothing is achieved over night.

For *******, you can't expect instant recognition.
When many times some hides truth when meeting a real fella.

We, all have faced opposition to something.
When many times those protesting does things undercover.
Notice, the self righteous get exposed of various troubles.

Especially, when protesting life styles of others.

If a person of  secret encounters or ******* life.
Patience and understanding is required there.
And reasons are very apparent.

That's why we hear about patience is a virtue.
Cause wisdom always wins out.
When forces comes against you.

It's just comes down to an image thing.

If you avoid controversy.
Then you in.
It's like playing the game of pretend.

So don't include me in it.

Don't get the information wrong.
Then you heard about the glitches swan song.
Because we as apart of human nature.
Can't admit public opinion can be totally wrong.

Still many wants to be liked.
And that has never been apart of my life.

Is it just me?
Or some feel close to what I speak?

Why?
Do reporters concentrate on DJT  twittering thumb?
When many of us know it not him but someone.

If, he can't read a teleprompter before him without pause.
Are, we suppose to be buying into this nonsense he's on twitter?

Patience, he doesn't have.
Which means one of the minions writing under his tagline.

Pay attention closely, how all the newsgroup report this stupidity that DJT writes this on the social site.
Really, people, this man isn't so bright.

We very aware DJT Jr. just as dumb too.
Maybe he should let the other siblings speak.
For when he does he create more headaches.

Then the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
But we aware that DJT isn't writing all the tweets.

To be a poet.
It just takes the ability to be a writer.
One, who's creative?
One, who feel challenge?

Select a word and let your mind flow.
And watch a poem begin to form.
For instance, we aware that instance rhymes with distance.

Which is similar in tone to mention.
Which really wasn't my intention.
But in away do get my point across.

While your mind is working around the house.
Challenging yourself to write a poem.

Which in away rhymes with warm.
Which seems to mirror storm.
And if you're undecided.
It's only because you are torn.

If elected, I promise to help the people.
Words of a politician.
You vote for them.
You elect them.
Then complains, when they attack your pension.

What you worked hard to gain?
They take it away with the sign of a pen.
Remember, this's the politician.
They on a mission.

Don't get me wrong.
They have their supporters.
Until they don't get their way.
Then they starts to complain.
They forgot.
This's a politician.

It's a battle.
It's a war.
When you see the viciousness take over.
They uses schemes.
Find ways to get over.
Until the news comes with a controversial story.
Then , they become quiet.

Except, they still to some a liar.
jeffrey conyers Jan 2014
You can think it.
As long as you don't admit it.
Because people guessing it.
Doesn't mean you professed it.

Yes, you can think about your co-worker being your dream lover.
Even , your best friend spouse being that person.

You can think it.
As long as you don't admit it.

You can imagine or visual being in bed with them.
Loving them and hugging them.
And it's all  innocent , as long as you don't admit it.

We ALL do it.
But deny it.
Until you over hear them getting carrying away.
Talking who?
When?
And what time and day.

It's like being in a dairy.
Only getting exposed in a divorce.
A party of a mess that you had no choice.

So you can imagine them.
Just don't admit it.

For the other party will never know.
As long as you don't admit it.

Image of a Man

Notice that the male specie is a dictator group.
If it does pleased them.
Or ruled completely by them.
Then its wrong.

Even in faith worshipping.
Notices the roles of the females.
They surrounded by words of submissiveness.
Dictated to follow and not lead.

And if they do,
Then we strong men acts afraid.
That our image of a man will fade.

Our sexuality is dictated by society rules.
And when someone gets abused.
Then we act completely confused.

Women's are the strength of the world.
Remove them and watch the men complain.
While only a few would the other way.

You must be you to feel complete.
And while doing that you will expose the weak.

Those males that feel the need to control.
But comes across struggling to be more than they seem.

Sometimes, you stands up to the bullies in society.
Because they hides in the shadows of fear.
Trying to be stronger than anyone.
Except weak when it comes to love.

But basing my decision upon wealth.
Yes, it's better to have.
As it is to have someone that cares.

If I had checked with those you once loved.
Then I would heard a bunch of negativity.
Then who must I believe?
When some are holding on to a grudged.

If I have listen to all those rumor mills.
Then you wouldn't be mine.
And I wouldn't be yours.

In truth and all honesty.
We fall in love with some with questionable means.
Nothing like those in our dreams.

So , if I had done this or that.
Is just us now beginning to doubt ourselves.
Cause it's easy to offer another fool.

Somethings I try to hold in because your mouth has lost many of friends.
And once you lose a truly good friend it's hard getting them back again.

Still, I got my eyes on you.
You know how to pretend to like many.
And your lips states when they don't like any.
So, I keep my eyes on you.

Maybe, just maybe I'm not your brain.
You know that think tank that thinks it knows everything.
And maybe, just maybe I'm not truly your eyes.

But, just like them I can feel the touch, of a lie.
So, I keep my eyes on you.
If you have a problem with me.
That's not my concern.
I just know the things you do needs to be observed.
So, remember I got my eyes on you.

But in a gated community everything's not right.
And it always shows when violence comes into their lives.

Some seems shocked and amazed that they are not safe.
But, whoever said gated community protects you from anything.

Having security comes from yourself.
Not fearing the world and the people within.
Like a dog can sense your fear.
It's the same with criminals when they breaks it.

Some long for the best in life.
While many knows a gated community doesn't stop violence at all.
It just hides secrets.
Until they are exposed and comes to light.

Guidelines To Meet

If you still holding on to racist ways of the golden days.
Or the modern times.
You've better learn to adjust or to adapt to a changing ways.
Just like in our youth nothing stays the same.

Yes, there's no laws that says you can't be a bigot.
And there's no law that states you should love everybody.
But there will come a time, when you must exam yourself.
If just to reach out to God and request his help.

Within our comfort zone we pretend to be strong.
But when all your hate supporters are gone.
You realize, you're simply alone.

God did not see good in bad.
God didn't state that wrong is good.
But laid out in words for love to be understood.

To love.
You must open up your heart.
Release all the pressure within to do it.
God hadn't made anything in life hard.
Or given it too easy to be abuse.

Don't be lying upon that death door.
Apologizing for hatred that has ruin your soul.
And friends and families hoping you had changed long ago.

God has limits to, who will get in.
Heaven is one place, where there's no guarantee?

Guilty By Public Opinion

Isn't facing time behind the walls of prison.

If they was paid.
Do we see the PEACOCK group interviewing his victims?
Like they were doing the comedian accusers.

A former executive of the EYE network accused and unemployed.
Isn't considered anywhere near going to prison by even his accusers?
Strange justice.
If they pay or have paid they get better treatment of justice to avoid time.
Did we see his network interviewing many upon 6o minutes?

A sitting president taped and recorded as grabbing females by their private parts.
Like a wicked boy does when they have wealth.
Pay them off and later they cry about it seeking attention.
We can't nominate him for honorable mention.
He admitted his guilt on tape.

Now, here come the truth.
A comedian sits behind prison walls held to higher standards than any of the three mention above.
And many males feel he got railroaded.
By women with a little guilt of their own.
Even according to the some the Temple instructor.
What made her take the be quiet settlement?

Heck, we can't come hard upon this infamous soul singer.
His past with youth has been well known.
Some ladies went along blindly.
Some went along as groupies like fans.
And you best believe we not seeking guilt of various white men that rival him.

And all cases isn't decided by courts but by many with public opinions.

Judge not, that you be not judged.
For what you measure anyone against?
You might later be found guilty by public opinions.

But within the lord.

You taking a chance giving any mouth to them.

Especially when lied upon.

And it's only your word.
Fall into he said, she said.
Until the investigation deny it.
Or the truth gets confirm.

Just a little evidence says a lot .
To get a small verdict even in court.
Sometimes the gulity parties walk.
While the innocent ones get booked.

To say, it's not so.
Would be a lie.
We all have witnessed this truth about a woman or a guy.

Luck has away of revealing so much.
Put a dollar bill in your pocket.
And believe on the inscription.
In God we trust.

To say, it not so.
Would show the heart of you.
Cause in truth we've got to believe in something.

Just say, it's not so.

As much as he level the error of judgment upon you.
He does inquire, what will happen when he quit you?
And another interest his heart.

Since you agreed to be used.
Don't later try to say he took advantage of you.
For that wouldn't be true.

Many men get blame for the stupidity of a few.
But in this case, it's you.

The Wedding Shaken Day
jeffrey conyers Nov 2012
I was walking down the aisle.
Nervous as can be.
On the arm's of the person standing next to me.
Leading me to the person.
Who purposed to me?

I just could feel my knees just a shakening.

Soon I was standing before the person.
Who would soon be my spouse?
Listening to the minister's lay out the vows.
As my hand sweat.

I know my soon significant other hands must be half wet.

I just know my knees just a shakening.

I know I barely heard those vowful words.
Do you take__to be my?
Forvever more through sickess and health.
Cause I know it's that only.
Because we have no wealth.

And then the minister turn those vows around.
Do you take
___to  be my?
I was so nervous I couldn't look him/her in the eyes.
Until the ring hit my hands.
And I bursted into a smile.

My knees was still a shaken.

Oh, I'm wondering now about tonight.
When we must consumate it.
Will my knees still be shaken?

Or will hours later I'll be smiling.
I just hope I don't faints.

Only The Strong Survives
jeffrey conyers Jul 2012
I've been a idiot.
I've been a fool too many times.
To explain the whole story to you.

For , who truly wants to come across gullible?
Which is a kinder word than dumb.
I have been stupid too.

Even the bright minds have been these names.
But cause of pride.
They refused to admit it.

We notice them more because of the things they do.
Multiple marriages and mansions.
When only one sure truly do.
They a richer example of a poor man's fool.

I have struggle.
I have survive.
In truth.
I've seen some troublesome times.
Least, where love is concern?
And I always seems to get by.

It's true.
Only the strong survive.
This I can testify too.

Be Me
jeffrey conyers Feb 2013
I could pretend to be anything I decides too.
But in the end the through would soon emerge.
I could imagine, in my mind things I am.
Except, I rather be me.

A con artist showcases only his skills of manipulation.
The same skills that a flim flam man have.
Whether it's a doctor, a lawyer or a businessman.
Except, I rather be me.

Scheming never gets you anywhere.
Except for fooling people in life.
Who was fooled by the mirage?

What you see in me?
Is truth.
What you see in them?
Is a fool.
Who couldn't be me?

What I achieve to be?
Is based on my determination.
And once I succeed.
Then I bet they would rather be me.

Injustice
jeffrey conyers Sep 2016
Is **** a game to judges?
Who hand out minor charges?
For crimes against a woman.

Whether she intoxicated or sober.
If she never submitted her permission to say yes.
Then why?
Are we seeing judges giving these "**** free passes" with months?
Instead of years.

The one the victim.
Stating his future might be hurt holds no weight.
He decided to make that fateful decisional mistake.

The victim must be represented rightfully.
She be like many hiding in the shadows of darkness afraid to speak.

**** isn't nothing for a man to be proud about.
When you took something precious to a woman without her permission
jeffrey conyers Feb 2014
Oh, those celebrities and the news that showcase worthless news.
When one turn forty and it's suddenly big news.
It eventually will come.

Oh, those celebrities that gather attention when they turn fifty.
It's nothing more than an age passed forty nine.
It eventually with come.

Then we are talking about news seekers.

Take note of the unfamous.
Who age gracefully?
Without any Good Morning America attention.
To several of us, it's not worth mentioning.

Some welcome the gray hair and the ****** change.
And seeing their child grow.
It just a sign of the time of personal growth.

Some of us love growing old.
Nothing stays the same forever.

And we don't need to read a book.
Or need to be a celebrity.

The Nurse
jeffrey conyers Jul 2012
You arrive.
And they instantly assist in your recovery.
You ring.
And they instantly react to your medical needs.

They probably the first face you truly wants to see.
Because the other might brings news you don't seek.
They trained.
They compassionate.
They are nurses that don't get enough credit.

Sure their are some you strictly tries to avoid.
Because instead of getting healthy.
It seems you get worse.
But the good ones make up for the rude ones.

Her greeting.
Her smile.
Show your true concerns.
Unlike doctors they mostly don't seek an attorney.

Sad, Sad Clown
jeffrey conyers Dec 2020
I seen a clown looking sad and teardrop falling down his face.
I seen a clown looking low and it hurt me so.

And in his eyes, you can see so much hurt inside.
And as time went by it because clear to me.
Just who that clown was?
Yes, who it must be?

Yes, it came very clear to me that behind that makeup that clown(sad clown) was me.

Sad, sad clown.
Sad, sad clown.
With a hurt frown was me.

Yes, sad, sad frown upon a sad clown

American Soldier
jeffrey conyers Jul 2012
American soldier.
Wear your uniform with pride.
Be you Navy, Air Force, or Marine.
Wear your uniform with pride.
Whether you're Army,  or National Guards.

You knew the consequences when you accepted to be.
A patriotic warrior protecting America.
Some of you will see action that you didn't create.
But you should be respected for your bravery.

America soldier.
Your shoulders carry alot of weight.
Any war you're involved in.
The president is kept updated upon.

Even the protesters care.
In their own special way.
And death from serving bravely.
Is one of the high price you pay.

The red, white and blue material with stars.
Represent many.
And the country you serve proudly for.
Owe you plenty.

As an American soldier.
jeffrey conyers Mar 2013
You carry it well.
And this many guys can tell.
It's deep within you.
And on the outside too.

Oh, beautiful woman.
You're the prettiest woman in the world.
Any guy can surely tell this.

Yes, beautiful woman.
You wear your looks very well.
You don't talk about it.
You don't brag about it.
You just take the compliments.

Oh, beautiful woman.
You make a man feel proud of you.

As I Sit Here
jeffrey conyers Feb 2013
As I sit here.
I'm writing down the things I admire about you.
And there are many.

One your religious nature that keeps you first focus upon God.
One is that distaste for dishonesty.
One your caring nature for others.
One your determination even when you're ill in health.
Which you doesn't stay so focus upon.

As I sit here.
I can only reflect about your sincerity.
I doubt you could pretend to be anything else.
Your heart enhances your worth.
You have a lovely soul.
This I do know.

As I sit here.
God, I am blessed.
jeffrey conyers Jul 2015
There might come a time when you think I shouldn't say it so much.
Except every day, I'm gonna say I love you.
Gonna show you why you're such a treasure beyond measure.

Others will seek to be compared to you.
Except they don't understand this heart of mine you rule.
So when I do or don't see you in person.
Somehow , every day, I'm gonna say I love you.

Oh, some might state, it's over ****.
Or this feeling of mine isn't real.
Then again, they are not me truthfully.

Or know the scope of my feelings.
Least the way you do.
jeffrey conyers Nov 2018
Without evidence, this would be just written words.
Except the proof is in the truth.
And upon the news, we witnessing it constantly.

Mass killings not from ISIS  but the white male killers.
What should truly be called America's terrorist?

Sure other group ranks in the mix too.
Except for the white male killers get treated kindly by the news.

If they a soldier instantly PTSD is mention?
Some told to mention it.
If they serve as police officers the masters of tricks?
Then instantly we know the stress excuse will be used.

Things, you will see created by many.
Or not believe completely by plenty.
Is the family tried to get them help?

Sounds good except experts can testify unless they admit it.
Then you're fighting a dead horse.

In a competitive job market the group that once instantly got hired over others.
Now finding that entitlement doesn't work mostly.
A blow to their psyche.

We quick to label Saudia Arabia and Egyptians or any born Muslim
behind counters terrorists,
Except for the white male killers.

Guess what?
They all not soldiers.

The Arranger
jeffrey conyers Aug 2012
Frank Sinatra.
Dean Martin and Nat King Cole.
All have sung songs arranged by Nelson Riddle.

The Temptations.
The Miracles and the Originals.
All have sung songs arranged by Paul Riser.

In the beginning the creator created many, many things.
And that day we met by coincidence.
Was in away really arranged.
After I assited you in the rain.
Suddenly, the sun came out.
When I  saw your lovely smile.

God, I guess we could truly say.
Arranged for us to meet on that fateful day.
Friends, find it hard to believe.
But, hadn't we been told, he moves in mysterious ways.

We in love.
Because of the arranger.
And to a believer.
He's not a stranger.

Forever Competing
jeffrey conyers Jun 2015
Now that you have them.
You still must do everything in your power to hold them.
You're forever competing.

You chased to capture them.
With everything imaginative.
This was the one you wanted to love.

No denying it.
Unless you living a falsehood.
