May Your Will Be Done

Dear Lord, I am tired. Two steps forward, and somehow, two steps back. I do not have the strength to keep fighting for what will never be mine. So give me the strength to let go. To stop worrying about what they will think. Dearest, I hope you know I was patient. When you showed no interest, I told myself one day you would. When you spoke, I held on to every word. All I ever wanted was to exist in a space where you were free to be yourself and let me be part of it. Dearest, you never chose me. You never will. And now, I finally know that. Dear Lord, why do I still hold on to hope? Why do I make a fool of myself for something so clear? Take this burden from me. Dearest, this is my goodbye. And I will not apologize for it, because I know you will never fight for me. May your days be filled with happiness. Dear Lord, give me strength of mind to stand firm in difficult decisions. Give me resilience so I do not go back. ...

Penned Thoughts #1

The one thing I never got right  Friends  How to make them  How to keep them  Or how to be chosen by them  The one mistake I never could solve  Friends How to put myself before others How to let go when it hurts  How to have the courage to say what I feel  The one thing I kept accepting  Friends  How they keep me on a leash short enough  To stay  But not long enough to be me  How they pretend to be real  But are wolves in sheep clothing  The one friendship that broke my heart  No. 1116 If only I was brave enough to say  What I felt  To leave when you didn’t chose me  To refuse to come second when I put you first  But oh,  The heart wants what it wants  Who can understand it  Friends If only I could master that  But you; You were never just a friend And maybe that Was the mistake I never knew how to fix

BROKEN πŸ’” PERSON πŸ˜”

 I am learning to unlove  A broken pot cannot be mended  I used to believe in love  Bt tht was before I washed my eyes  To see my sad reality  A disgrace lyk no other  A lonely soul Never with remorse  Quick to the fists  And rotten in speech  I don't want to love  Becoz I will only hurt  I used to hv dreams dreams of having a family of my own  Dreams of being in love  Bt I don't want those dreams anymore  I want to bi me  I hv a fear  A fear of hurting the one I love  And so  I choose not to love  For if I love  I'll hurt  And tht's the only thing tht hurts  I cry myself to sleep  I take long walks in the dark  I listen to soothing music  I eat too much  I frown and think  All to let this pain go  This pain which is my new soul  I don't believe in love  So don't fall for mi πŸ˜‚ If she calls mi  And tells mi she loves mi  I'l...

THE GREATEST DENIAL TO A CHILD'S RIGHT TO LIFE

Keeping is caring! But it turns out we are not keeping For i hear from a distance the cry of no care She cries and sobes all day and night Waiting for hope but despair answers to her doorstep, The life of the poor infant has moved from a joyous place to unquestionable misery . Why has this happened to the innocent child ? Child marriages have become an anthem across the globe,  Yes! Children have become sex slaves so to speak. For allowing your own child to get married at a tender age is clearly selling your child to hungry lions to prey on her! Doing this in pursuit of money.  Money itself being the root of all evil,  Even the ancient words which are ever true deny this gesture of madness. Child marriage is child murder. Child marriage is child massacre. Child marriage is child trafficking. Child marriage is child assassination,destroying your own child's future ,crushing and eradicating her *God* given nature,for even mother nature denies such gesture of a dictat...

MELLOW

I thought about you Then I met you I thought we were friends Bt I was only a distraction I always waited Bt u never showed up Enough is enough I say to my mind I took a french leave And excomunicado I went A few hrs later I could not bear I returned to an appluase Grt u said Don't leave again u whispered And a way u disappeared I ghosted u Bt my mind didn't every memory always fresh lyk the tears tht roll down my cheeks I hv to be strong It's not meant to bi I whisper to my heart It beats faster then whispers back Can we handle!  It will leave mi broken  And I agree Then the brain to the heart: let's give one more chance And so we wait Am still waiting today with hope tomorrow hopeless Bt stronger I wait How much longer till I give up?

The truth we hide

 The truth we hide  Some where behind  that big tall dark door  firmly locked  in the dark inner corner  you only know  it's the truth u can't let loose  ur insurance for tomorrow  ur fear tht you fear  it's who you are that you lock  the truth we hide  when I let them in  what's in the dark corner  they ask  I close my ears  and choose not to hear anything  the truth we hide  in the place we feel safe  when any attempts to unlock  the hidden  we call it quits  and soon it ends  To the truth I hide  leave mi alone  Be no more part of mi  for I can't hide u anymore  I hv ripped my friendships  all for you  I hv told lies all for u  No More  TO THE TRUTH I HIDE  I WILL SET U FREE  πŸ˜ŽπŸ€“IMANI YOVANI

To the one I ghosted

To the one I ghosted I didn't mean to But I had to It hurt me to do so  But if I didn't  it would hurt harder  I gave u my time  And u took it for granted  thought it to be a mere joke  But still I gave u my time   u talked to me only  when u felt like  only when u wanted to  we laughed and giggled  spent all time happy Bt u still only saw me as a joke  A joke in times of boredom A person to speak to  when you can't speak to anyone  To the one I ghosted I didn't mean to  Bt I had to  It hurt me  bt I had to To the one I ghosted  hear what I say  I didn't mean to ghost u  Bt I had to  For my sake I had to If only u will understand then maybe  I will un-mute myself  and talk to u  To the one I ghosted  πŸ˜ŽπŸ€“MANI YOVANI
