“I didn’t mean to fall in love with you. I had only planned on using you to find my way back to myself to the girl we used to know.”

This love is soaked in alchemy, our leaden hearts broken by aching pasts have transformed into gold. I never knew love had the power to do so.

I am yours forever until the last starbursts in the sky, the mountains crumble and the world erupts.

I’m not sure how love changes, how I can be head over heels one moment and not stand you next.

I hope one day to be the mother I never had.

Like the mountain, she rises above every challenge, every mistake, every heartbreak.

Anchor me to the depths of the ocean that is your heart.

You deserve the greatest love.

The glow from the southern sun lit up her face like a goddess divine.

What I Thought was love, was really just lust-electrical chemistry, no emotional availability.

Hold my heart please, take this burden off me- the heavy hearts club.

You burned through my heart, leaving scars I thought was love. But when the smoke cleared all you left was charred destruction.

I have a heart of fire and you are afraid of getting burned.

My heart of flame could turn even your lead core into gold.

Why do I keep thinking, writing, dreaming of you? You don’t deserve to be my muse.

The longing for what should have been is what breaks my heart, over again.

I thought I had a second chance at loving you, but really it was just another lesson at letting go.

Those who fall away have never been thoroughly imbued with the knowledge of Christ but only had a slight and passing taste of it.

The shadow of a mighty Negro past flits through the tale of Ethiopia the shadowy and of the Egypt the Sphinx. Throughout history, the powers of single blacks flash here and there like falling stars, and die sometimes before the world has rightly gauged their brightness.

I just need to let myself fall in love with myself.

I’m still learning that falling is supposed to be a two way street.

Tell me I’m your sweet thing so I can simmer in sweet dreams tonight.

Words aren’t enough but they are all I have to hold on to right now to keep from falling and near hitting bottom.

Darlin if I could, I would fall for someone good.

Please don’t let me sleep. I’ll only dream of her.
