Never Know
I wish I meant enough to you to earn your time, I wish you felt the same way I feel about you, But, in the silences- I guess we’ll never know. I wish you trusted me enough to fully let me in, I wish you thought I was good enough to take the risk, But […]

Sour
It still makes me sad that you never wanted me as much as I did you, I did all of the right things, brought you into my fold, So openly and with deep affection, Why wasn’t I good enough? Knowing what I have to offer, what about me didn’t suit? I was myself, I let […]

Book Review: Yellow Wife
Instagram really got me good on this one, after constantly seeing this book on my feed at the back end of 2021, beginning of 2022 I thought why not give it a try. Must be gathering traction for a good reason, and if I’m being honest in some ways it disappointed. This week on the […]

Holding On To
I told myself I didn’t want to lose you,Reluctantly letting go,But the fact is, I was holding on to things I didn’t need,Uncertainty disguised as me being needy,Fitting me in when convenient for you, masked as busyness,I was holding on to the possibility of how things could be, ignoring the fact that you weren’t in […]

Breadcrumbs
If I really sit down and think about it,The fact is, I chose to accept the breadcrumbs you sent my way, I looked the other way when it came to the inconsistency of your time, Of your apparent inability to reach out, Claims of being too busy or tired or it simply slipping your mind,If […]

Crying For Nothing
It genuinely scares me just how fragile I feel,Like you’ll realise I’m not that interesting and change your mind,I thought I loved you so much, it’s an actual pain in my chest,I analyze and over analyze our conversations, Looking for clues or indicationsPushing you away only to pull you back in because I’m scared I […]
