Communication is My Salvation


Giving into the temptations of cultural norms

Harbor pain and hide our true forms

The cycles of abuse that we often ignore

Resurface for us to replicate 

We must express our fears 

So that we can be honest with our date

When we build a personna a on a rocky foundation

It is likely that we will give into our temptations

We must be open to change

And not expect love to be easy

Healthy relationships stem from hard discussions and a lot of lovin'
