Do you love me
or not
you continue to pull the strings of my heart
tugging left
then right
tearing it all apart
your words convey one thing
your actions another
This strong sista
don't need a confused brotha
I place no blame
cause I'm partly at fault
for giving you the key
to my emotional vault
Either you want me
or you don't
let's not make this a battle
The strong currents never stopped me
I continue with a steady paddle
Upstream I go
I maintain my balance
you're obstructing my flow
presenting a challenge
You're like the iceberg
that made the Titanic sink
You're like a tumor in the brain
affecting the way I think
You're like the corn
on my pinky toe
discomfort from friction
like you'll never know
You're like the end of the book
when I turn the last page
In blankness
emptiness
in nothingness
I gaze
Don't wrack your brain trying to figure out
if I'm worthy of your time
Be honest and true to yourself
put the memories of me behind
I embrace myself
and the love of God
In your mental battles
I will not trod
Unsure? Confused?
say a little prayer
ask your higher power to take you there
Take you to a place of
PEACE, LOVE and HARMONY
where your spirit can make decisions
with absolute certainty
Was there ever a clear vision of you and me
or a creation in our minds
of what we wanted love to be
I will not worry about the love not coming from you
I'm blessed with divine love
unselfish, genuine and true
I hope you'll open your heart
so you'll receive the blessings too
Carry on with your life
move on if you must
My focus is no longer on you
In God, I'll place my trust
