For a Seed to Grow(BecauseILoveYou)

Most people regret what they didn't do rather than what they did

With me, it's the exact opposite

I regret doing you

I regret calling you my boo

Knowing the moment you stop acting right, you will turn into another dude

Or another hoe

I regret you and my body got introduced

Before you even met your soul

Lacking patience, understanding and care, the same qualities needed

For a seed to grow

Yet I no longer take it slow

Fast paced in a world where you can like a persons pictures more than their self-image

Is it not crazy that in the age of information and instant messaging

It has become harder for us to communicate

Our perceptions of "this could be us" or quote on quote "goals" is far from realistic

Because how could you and I possibly hold relations if we could hardly hold a conversation

Instead we hold grudges

Instead we hold pain, hardship and anger

And I hold you closer, and trust that you will be loyal

For our roots can never grow if I keep believing you do dirt like soil

Words of honesty, lyrics of comfort and hooks of respect would write the perfect love song

Yet I bleed ink in order to right your wrongs

I became your sex puppet...my how easy it's to be attached when you're strung along

Drunk in love, hooked to hugs.

What an addict I became, you drugged me on

And the words I thought gave me a fix, left me broke

Because I love you!

I had multiple options yet only saw one choice

Because I love you!

I bite my tongue as you talked, baby you left me with no voice

Because I love you!

I screamed for the lock for your phone instead of the keys to your heart

How excited I was!

But because I love!

I became crooked and my exclamation mark curved into a question mark

Filled with jugs of insecurities and gallons of doubt

Comparing you to my exs and others, thinking you were never up to par

Forgetting that your strengths and flaws

Combined...makes you the beautiful person that you are

So because I love you, through my action I will let it be shown

I will have patience, understanding and care, the same qualities needed

For a seed to grow
