in marriage (and relationships)
if you’re on a different page
communication’s muddled
if you’re in a different chapter
you’ll feel miles apart
if you’re in a different book
well that’s another story
in marriage (and relationships)
if you’re on a different page
communication’s muddled
if you’re in a different chapter
you’ll feel miles apart
if you’re in a different book
well that’s another story
it’s so easy to say
THIS is why I feel like I do
THIS is what someone did
not realizing
it’s the enemy
planning offense to be taken
so you’ll walk away
from family
from friends
from self
from God
dividing what’s become
into isolation
creating an army
because he doesn’t HAVE one
of his own
there’s much more good than evil
but YOU decide which to focus on
before you can play chess
you need to learn the game
what each piece can do
and always think ahead
before you move forward
to
walk
on
eggshells
the
egg
would’ve
had
to’ve
fallen
to
the
ground
it’s not the fact that
darkness lies
because
darkness lies
it’s the fact that
at times
I believe them
but writing them down
seems to throw them
in fire
and all that’s left
is ashes
Isn’t it funny (but not) how what’s going on on the outside can affect the inside and how what’s going on on the inside can affect the outside?! I think the secret is living inside out.
I know you don’t
because when I look in the mirror
I cry
I see my profile
my weight
my self
and I cry
I just want someone
to see me
from the outside
each profile
from the neck down
from the neck up
from the front
the back
the sides
and tell me that
I’m beautiful
but convince me
or deliver me from
the darkness
that tells lies

it’s more than just
moving away
it’s not being able to kiss him in the morning
it’s not being able to see him at the table
it’s not being able to hug him
it’s not being able to know he’s there
it’s more than just
moving away
