Hateful decree

You’ve thrown down the gauntlet
You’ve made me pick up the fight
You’ve forced our hands into conflict
Through your dark words tonight

Don’t remember the start of it
Can’t forget what you said
Didn’t want to be at war
But now your rage is in my head

How can we get past this anger?
We can’t just put this to bed
You’ve said you don’t love me
I’m broken, I’m pained, I’m upset

What’s the point if that’s true?
Why bother if you hate me
Our battles will just get worse
It ends, after your hateful decree

So I’m not going to fight you
Instead let’s both break free
Hope resilient, still resides within
To find someone, to live a life lovingly

My heart repaired

Getting better
Life is getting better
The days grow lighter
My worries grow lighter
My troubles aired
My heart repaired
At last I feel whole
Filled the hole
That you left.

I had fallen

Sure footed I rise
Take my place
Stand tall

Your love removed
Heart ripped open
I had fallen

The floor was cold
My cure remote
Prone, abandoned

Time passed slowly
Each day hurt
Pain became familiar

One morning the sun
Shed gentle warmth
Spring was coming

Now, sure footed I rise
Take my place
Stand tall
But I hold onto my pain

I’m not your destiny

I love you and feel loved too
But you will grow beyond me
I’m not the final one for you
I’d like it, but I’m not your destiny

Don’t hide our difference
Right now this hurts
Admit the apparent gap
Admit the need to divert

See it for what it is
Identify and isolate
Long term problems
Don’t procrastinate

Or else question all
When all else is good
Our love has been true
But we’ve tried all we could

We will be friends still
It’s hard to love and let go
Hard to do the right thing
Heart holds on, denies what I know

I love you and feel loved too
But you will grow beyond me
I’m not the final one for you
I’d like it, but I’m not your destiny
