Love Regrets by: Marie Brown

Dear Ruthless Soul,

Your heart ripped out of your chest for what?

The hopes of finding another me,

I don’t think so

Eyes so calm

Hips so wide

Rhythm like high tide

But it wasn’t enough.

How could you leave?

I gave you everything you needed but I was just tripping huh?

My care and selflessness gone down the drain

And you never felt my pain.

Gone with the wind

Leaving me..It’s a trend

Empty prayer for those who don’t deserve it

I bumped my head thinking you were worth it

A week went by with no call but an apology……

No way you meant that

All the “I Love You’s” yea, I meant that

My money, you spent that

My mind. You broke that

But selfish is your best trait yet so down to Earth no one would ever know.

How could you stoop so low?

I SEE RIGHT THROUGH THOSE EYES.

That wall you put up I break down

Because I’m your weak spot.

You hate me so much yet

My image in your mind never drops,

Time has passes you left a big whole nobody can cover up.

Been trying to keep you out my head but as many prayers that went up

Nights spent up

I cant shake you.

My best option? Cover you up with my self-esteem.

I’m finally seeking peace.

I care about you, knowing I don’t

You say you’ll be fine, we both know you wont

DON’T LIE.

Like a fraction I’m bringing the reciprocal

That empty pit with no life

No love

No Happiness.

The overwhelming sorrow on them late nights at 3am aren’t for nothing,

You reap what you sew and you got some work to do

Too bad I have no sympathy for you.

YOU SHOT ME THREE TIMES.

1 For Love

2 For Trust

3 For the Next

Made your mark. Oh yes!

But greatly for me, someone is stitching up the gapping whole on the left side of my chest.

With every stitch is where you failed

The strength of this woman PREVAILED!

Lastly I’m sorry, for the pain you will endure

As you watch me grow where you failed

Love you again, sorry I can’t take that L.

Loving the feeling to embrace my Black Girl Magic

Sincerely,

A Healing Hearted Girl.
