PEACE BE WITH YOU


You ARE tired. I see it in your eyes.

I felt it as you cried

and i'm here to dry those eyes

those eyes have insight on lies

that seemed deprived

you're cold and in denial.

looking crazy,

what's on your mind

oh wait, I am already aware

that that little joke you made that you might've had an affair

but It is not me that you do scare

but my heart you surely swear 

to rip on up and tear

all because of despair.

I hurt bc I care!

BUT I am frustrated.

knowing you walking around here like you're THE GREATEST

the things you feel that I may not  even know

but now I do & i'm MOST HATED!

MY HEART IS SOO AMAZING

BUT MY SOUL HAS BEEN DEGRADED.

SO PEACE BE WITH YOU LATELY.

I CAN'T BE MAD

BC WHAT I DID STILL MADE YOU SAD

AND THAT'S MY BAD

BUT MAN DON'T ACT LIKE YOU'RE JUST RAD

BC YOU AREN'T

MY GODDY THOUGH?! GODDAMN IT I FEEL DISGARDED

MY LOVE WAS JUST SO TARNISHED

BUT I STILL KEEP YOU CLOSE REGARDLESS

bc I can but really can't.

take another look up in your face 

and try to find a replace bc all of that's erased..

YOUR TOUCH MAKE MY PULSE RACE

WITH YOU, I FEEL OUTTA SPACE

SO I INVITE YOU ON THIS CHASE TO HAVE LOVE. MERCY & GRACE

SO that ik that there is.

PEACE W/ YOU.
