He hurts her
She hurts him
He's hurt
She's hurt
He hurts
She hurts

She invited me into her home
I entered
I didn't wipe my feet
I didn't bother to take my shoes off
I left footprints all over her floor
I raided her refrigerator and her snack cabinet
I sat on her couch
I laid in her bed
I showered
I used her towel to wipe me clean
I put my clothes on
I left without saying thank you

No problem

Why do people act like we don't need each other?
When the fact is
We need each other!
Men don't wanna need a woman
Women don't wanna need a man
Who are you fooling?
How do you plan on reproducing?
Do you plan on reproducing?
What are you here for?

Every day of your life depends on the billions of people that go to work
every, single, day
If no one shows up to do their job
You don't eat!
You don't have any luxuries!
We enrich each others lives in every way possible
but we don't thank each other enough
We hardly even acknowledge passersby
We don't appreciate what we do for one another
We don't acknowledge all the love around us!
We don't wanna see...
I could blame a hate, money, and power driven government
but it's not their fault
We are smart!
We are powerful!
We know better!
We are better!
The government is not to blame for what goes wrong in the world
I am
and so are you
It's our fault!
We let this happen!
We watch guns tear down the life of so many humans
and do nothing
We let children be stripped from their homes to be sold as slaves
*** slaves!
We let our earth become a wasteland!!
We did this!
Not the government!
The government is not that powerful
We are!
We decide what happens next.

Let the tree be a tree
Let my eyes see
Let me be
Me be
Me

I've been abused by love
Used by love
Subdued by love
My love is to strong
To ever lose my love
I want you to see my love
Need  my love
My love is simply a seed
My love
Plant it and watch it grow wings my love
I am free my love
From everything that's inside of me my love
I give to you
I live for you
I am you
And you are me too
All this love that I have is inside of you
My love grows in you
Holds on to you
My love is your love
Our love is so new
I want you to free my love
So that you can see my love
Love my love
Nothing above
Nothing below
Our love will grow
Our love will grow

Her hands were cold
Her eyes were sad
She said nothing
There was no need
This was not just goodbye
It was goodbye to me
I didn’t say a word
Just a hug
Not even a kiss
I still wear the bracelet on my wrist
Walking the streets
Tears graze my cheek
I am free
