I won’t beg nor rebuke, Just a thought that runs through my inner core. When I think of the old— the meaning of love in my mind gets admonished. Makes me repent, Refuse, Run away on my own. No guidance. I’ll be in my rowboat on my way to what the world holds. A sea of abundance and versatility. You’ll always be my love jones, My root and soot, The muse. But I refuse to keep you around With the inconsistencies, Scarce conversations, Wounded egos. I’m no longer the caged bird I now sing my own tune. Soaring like a rapper’s flow. I’d rather be connected with my mind than confused on the nostalgia.
