mystique May 2015
I've been making bad decisions lately,
I've been choosing your happiness over mine.
I've been hiding my smile just to make you laugh...
I've been living for you,
maybe it's because I have been lonely..
Unlike pnd I've been lonely all the days of the week & not just on thursday nights..

I've been yearning to be loved for once
To be caressed for once
To be someones " girlfriend "for once

You came at the right time, when my mind only knew solitude
Oh how great it was letting my mind meet a fellow human.
we enjoyed the moments, maybe you more than me.

I got what i needed, an occasional " I love you " and a "goodnight gorgeous"

I was fine till i started making cracks on the walls of this "love" we had.
I pointed out how the corners of our affection were crumbling, you said no we will be fine
I pointed out how the floors of our love were opening in half, you promised me that we'll be fine.
I pointed out how the walls of our conversations didn't look the same anymore, you said no I'll be fine.
And in that moment the ceiling of our companionship started cracking, you said no you'll fix it.

I asked " what about we?, can't we do this together" you kept quiet....

Baby, I had to sit back and watch you slowly change into someone I didnt know.
& finally when my addiction to you that turned into a habit that soon turned into a hobby stopped

I took my heart and walked away, but you know what hurts? You held the door of our relationship open for me.

You wished me a happy departure.

Just love me for the differences.
No matter what the difference is,
In times of rain,
Or times of pain,
No matter what the issue is.

Love me like a kid loves cake,
Or clouds love rain,
Or how biggie loves T bone steak, cheese, eggs and Welch’s grapes,

Love me like Martin loves Gina,
How Polo G love Piano in his beats
Be so real,
Be the truth,

Love me like candy rain
And let me be so into you.
Let me be your Brown Sugar,
And you be my baby boo.
Like Love Jones,
Poetic Justice,
Let me be the Mj to,
Your Peter Parker

Love me through the multiverse,
or every timeline in the universe

Love me correctly,
Love me gently,
Love through the beauty and the struggle,

Like Corinthians 13:4-7
With kindness, patience.
Trusting and never failing.

Love me through the ugly and the pretty.
On my worst days when things seem dreary.
Love me even when things get complicated,
In times when it’s easier to stream PND and get kinda faded.
When struggle consumes love and we’re just irritated.
Despite it all let our love stay unshaken.

Just love me through the differences.
No matter what the difference is,
Because love is an art that’ll never reach perfection.
The imperfections of affection is what makes it authentic,
So just love me like this poem,
Hard hitting and genuine.
