The Unknown
BeLoved May 2019
I pray for peace
For I dont want to keep fighting
My first are brused
My breath is faint
My shoulders cant hold this weight
Depression is taking over
I pray for happiness
For I am starting to forget my smile
I placed my most prized possession in the hands of the unworthy.
I am a seed that never got to grow
So young and dumb how was I supposed to know
You can't expect to be a tree when you surround yourself in bad soil.
You will rot
I pray for independence
For I cant seem to love myself anymore
She took my confidence when she walk out the door.
She left all her luggage
I carry it around with me just incase we cross paths
I pray we never cross paths
For I'm not strong enough to stand on my own
I fear she'll always be my comfort zone
She never really understood the unknown

Shower
BeLoved Jul 2021
Tonight I watch the water hit my skin
No matter how hard I scrub
I just can't get this day to go down the drain
So I guess It stays
This depressed state
At this point it knows me better than my own shadow
At this point it knows me better than I know me
At this point
What's the point...

Your not who I wanted
But **** am I happy you came
You and I
We've got these problems
But in each other
We show no shame
You smiled and held my hand through the thunder and the rain
So no
I have no problem holding you until the darkness goes away
Wrap yourself in my arms and call it your armor
Tell me you feel peacefulness with your face in my collar
And if you feel the darkness is winning
Darling just say my name
Honey please holler
No matter what time
No matter the hour
I'll always be here throughout your sweet and your sour

Loving You...
BeLoved Jun 2019
Loving you was like driving with a blindfold on.
I was reckless.
I wanted you to be my lighthouse
But little did I know your lights were out
They have been for some time now,
Maybe if I try hard enough she'll shine that neon light that first caught my sight
Maybe if I put her demons over mine maybe then she will shine.
Maybe then she'd be mine.
But over time you
You drained my energy
And stole my shine.
You had me looking at my reflection wandering if it were mine.

Oh The Places You'll Go
BeLoved May 2019
Stand up
You over looked beauty
Your much stronger then you know
To wish on a dandelion
You must blow
Wish for happiness
I think we're running low
Don't give in
We must go
We must grow
Even with the weighted bricks stacked on your shoulders
Even with that depression boulder
Baby girl
I'm gonna need you to smile today
No matter what they say
Open your mind
Be the color in their black and grey
You'll get through whatever is getting you down
You'll grow out of whatever is making you frown
Love
Keep marching on
We have things to do
Oh the places you'll go
God. If you only knew
Definitely channeled a Dr. Seuss X
Mr. Rogers vibe for this one.

Seventeen
BeLoved Jul 2019
As I sit here on the bitter edge of seventeen
I daydream about the time the grass were green
I hate the way your love makes me act like a fein
Do you even think of me.
Happy birthday love,

IMPOSSIBLE
BeLoved Oct 2019
Baby I think we need to breathe
So much love lost
I'm smiling cause it's impossible to grieve
It's impossible to leave
I'm addicted to you darling
But your too blinded to see

Passion
Between us
In the shape of a kiss
In my eyes as I watch your hips
And on my tongue when I lick my lips.

Saving me
BeLoved May 2020
She undo me from the tight grasp of the world
The universe hasn't been to kind
Or maybe it's just following behind father time.
God has been stepping on my neck
She see me wheezing
So she give me her very last breath
She tell me breathe slow
Exhale past trauma
Inhale a unknown tomorrow

Today
BeLoved Sep 2019
This **** hurts
I can't feel a thing from my chest down
Please don't send for help
Please don't object
Just let me fall
Let the dark side of the night latch onto my body
Give it room to cover me give it space to surround
For I will either grow accustomed to these
dark currents
Or as the pressure increases in my lungs
I promise I will remember all the nice things for me you have done
All the laughter we shared when we were Young
And how I couldn't tell the difference between your love and the sun

Wanted
BeLoved May 2019
I want you
Or maybe just a minute of your time
I wonder how your hands feel inside mine
I want to see you laugh
I want to watch you talk
Listen to you sing
Copy your dance
And be captivated by your walk
I want you
And all of your attention
Be mine for the moment
However long our conversation
One hour or ten
Darling put down your phone
And grab my hand
come closer to me
let's embrace our sin
I want you

What About Me
BeLoved Jul 2019
What about me
I've memorised your melodies
I held back emotions
Studied your condition
But what about me
I'm drowning
And your watching
Maybe I was wrong to invest in you
Our love is crashing
This **** is depressing
I'd ask for your love
But what about me.

Be my Venus
Come with me to Mars
Cause this place reeks of pain
This place soaked in plantation vibes
And I've gone death listening to the plantation cries.
Some one help me I'm not alright
Depressed and upset all through the night
Some one send for me
The Martian man has been waiting
Baby our time here is fading
She told me her secret
I'm still not afraid
We are both opposites
And yin and yang

In my arms
BeLoved Apr 2020
I want you in my arms
Close to the beat of my heart
I remember the first time you settled in my arms
You instantly familiarized yourself in my comfort
I can't help but to wonder if we're meant to be
If the length of my arms were made to be filled by you
If the assuring beat in my chest was made to calm you
If the all the pain my life brought only readied me for you
Sometimes I wonder if I were made to be yours
Sometimes I wonder if you were made to be mine.

— The End —
