A Broken Love


Shakin my head……….Where can I even start The very beginning or now when there is a question in my heart It’s like yesterday that I saw you and you was that flash that crossed my sky No one else mattered cuz well I wanted to be your guy I couldn’t believe you was so amazing, what started off as a like turned into something different quick Emotions I tried to drop, but they became too thick And I can’t move on cuz they weighed me down like a ton of bricks I told my bros I wasn’t attached, but funny lies fly while my true feelings stick Even though I knew what situation we were in, I continued to pursue Thought I had a grip, but I was lost in the question…. Without any clue Yes I knew you had a man, dude, guy, boy whatever you want to call it But I already had in my mind that you would be mine dammit So this trip I prepared for, no matter where it went, I just grabbed it by the handle Like a fool at the casino, I went all in and took this gamble We fell fast, instead of just moving amble Now I’m just fighting to keep the bit of a fire lit on the candle I knew you had a boyfriend but wit me knowing the past All the emotional rides yall had All the the trials and tribulations that was made And the girls bodies that he played That took your heart out the sun and placed it in the shade And everything you thought you knew was blown by an Inner lie type of grenade Now don’t get me wrong, I know you don’t want to give up all the years that equal to the tracks that together ya laid But I couldn’t understand why stay on an old track if ya stopped moving together, so now ya roll around in a circle, like ya love is featured by Cascade Took a chance on us, but didn’t know exactly what to do Because your heart is tied to somewhere else, So your past aint through I fell hard and it was always a bother Tried to calm my feelings but I just got hotter Tried to move on but I just stayed, cuz wit you I use to be set And how can I run along like nothing happen, when this the fastest I fell without a safety net Now back and forth we go, tug a war we have began And as we try to leave each one alone and stand We end up in the same spot that we together stood, So letting us go…. I don’t even know if we can I trip here and you hate to hear the things I sometimes say But even when were mad, you somehow on my mind at the end of the day Your glow when I see you is unimaginable The shine you give off, even the sun isn’t compatible Nor the stars, nor the moon And If you need me I swear I’m there, Never an …….imma be there soon “I don’t wanna go there, We should never go there” a line I always recite Because in my might I always tried to hold you tight And I know all my moves are not right But your happiness is always something that’s in my sight I strive to be something others not, your past couldn’t possibly find another Pull away from me, but somehow we always end up finding each other And as we try to keep feelings from spreading, I’m always missing the rubber So I guess I impregnate your feelings for me and in the birth comes me being your Lover Pause, I never wanted you like anyone else, I want you the most Cuz your looks are great, But your intellect and determination is something to Boast And I swear we always keep something new going, its never dry always moist Everyone say move on….. But honestly Is that the best choice And as we reach the limits of you here and I’m there I just gotta make it clear That I don’t know what to do with you away from being away from my side And as your claimed as a R.O.D. I would ask shouldn’t you have someone that also that wants to ride But I see on this poem I let my feelings run loosely I could continue but that’s enough, to say in these words I get things off my chest And to the problems I held I try to put to rest And as you think just remember, That all I want is you to be filled with joy And I mean this whole heartedly, Not playing games cuz you never was a toy “It can get ugly, before it get beautiful” true cuz I swear I live by that so that’s y I must quote And from the very beginning this poetry I have truly wrote
