I wanted to tell you
That you had hurt me.
But I think
You already knew.

Everyone has demons
Everyone has things they regret
Everyone has things
They'd rather soon forget

So
So,
here we are just about 52 years after my birth.

A birth that I am most thankful for as well as my 6 children that live.

But life... ..
this life here,
it wears on a soul
that now longs
for the dirt.

Truth be told;
I am tired even though
that I know that,
I have more to give.

Selfish and unknowing worth?

Perhaps,
but I now see my life being drained through a sieve.

Look,
I am not complaining about being here.

But if God took me to His kingdom today... ..

I have no fears.

Some days I am swimming,
most days I am sinking.
There is never a day where I
can simply just float.

Blue moon
You used to be silver last June
You changed your color
And I wondered
If your lover left you

Why are you shining so blue
I think I already knew
Why you're so blue

My broken hearted moon
You were so bright last June
You changed your color
And I wondered
If your lover left you

Why are you shining so blue
I think I already knew
Why you're so blue

Moon

I just want you to know
I feel it too

Behind every successful man,
There is a woman.
To achieve this ideology,
I'm crumbling myself to pieces,
As best as one can.
I'm willingly giving myself up to this social construct. Everything we do for an unreciprocating love.

When I was younger I was different,
But when I grew up I became the same.
