i am some things
you are the sea and i am but a drop of water

Baby, you're like the moon to me

you bathe me in your resplendent

silvery light.

You give me rest.

You give me peace.

But baby, do you stir the oceans inside me
Im feeling weird today
Right now I feel frozen
Wait
Not frozen.
Life moves on
At a regular pace
But I'm slow and
I'm losing this race
I want to go back to
Where we were when
I said I loved you
And you said it back.

It was all so sudden
Our relationship didn't crumble
It imploded on itself.
And now I'm back
To being alone.
This poem is my
Impromptu apology.

I moved too fast
And now I'm stuck
In slow motion.
and I didn't want to
fall for you
because falling only leads to
scraped knees and
****** bandages

but I enjoyed the beautiful
sunrises that appeared on my
legs and hands
and I kept begging for more
forbidden pain until I was
numb to you

but the amount of scars left on my
canvas of a body today couldn't
add up to the regret I
felt for not having
fallen
hard
enough.

Well, here we go
Repeating the past

I swore i wouldn't
But I'm weak

So once again
I'm texting him

He told me that I
Was his little secret  
I told him that he
Was worth the pain  

He told me that I
Could hold his hand
I told him that he
Could bring me shame

And I know that it's wrong
And I know I should change  

But the words that he said
They drove me insane  

And I know that it's wrong
And I know I should change  

But  

He told me that I
Was his sweetest pain
I told him that he
Was my best mistake  

He told me that I
Could be his favorite lie
I told him that he
Could make me cry..
Hey, what’s the story and what’s the crack?
I am white and you are black.
God made me and God made you,
Respect is what we got to do.
We cut our fingers, we bleed the same,
Different colors but different names.
We have things in common,
We like fun and games,
We run, we jump, we hop and skip,
And let no bad words pass our lips.
Because respect is what we got to do,
Respect from me and respect from you.
