Exhale My Love...

I love you...

I truly hope you know this..

There hasn't been many blessings 

So beautiful 

So endearing 

That my greatest fear 

Revolves around not loving 

You...

I cringe upon the notion

With my second guessing 

That my thoughts are nervous 

If you will...

I've been lied too...

Cheated on...

Manipulated...

In my weakest...

I've been jailed

Stripped to my under garments 

Left alone to drown in my own confusion 

In my ability to appear

Internally I've been shredded 

Be kind to my soul

Understanding of my thoughts 

Forgiven of my actions 

Uplift my spirit 

Continue to up the man

So that I may reach new heights

Broken I may not be

But there are days...

Days when tomorrow is too far away

And yesterday should have held me hostage 

I've search for validation 

Found disappointment 

Longed to be loved

And yet found myself hated

Gave evey thing of myself

Coming one holster away from

Inhaling my very last

So please as I love you

With an intensity that refuses to let go

Motivated to love you

Hell or high high waters

Please hold me one time...

And say....

I got you...it's okay...

Exhale My Love
