If I had the chance….I’d calm the tides in your room before you’re hit with waves of emotions

it must be aggravating learning how to swim just so you can sleep comfortably…..

you shouldn’t have be roommates with sleep apnea
sacrificing your midnights to the estuary of mornings only in hopes the scars don’t bleed over into the new nights….

this wont last forever….
you won’t have to invest in a boat before therapy
your potential ponders precise promise
perfectly
a mind of pure gold…..
you were taught at the end of rainbows…..
you’re no stranger to rain……
all too familiar with storms…..
cloudy sky’s in bedrooms…..
walls painted beige…..
warm color pallets glamorously teasing your growth

you decorate your wall with flowers to protect the garden on the other side…yet no one notice

never once did anyone ask what was on the other side before eyes wide at your display….
most people think outside the box so standing outside of don’t leave much to say except…

this is so pretty….
this is so beautiful m….
hey gorgeous….
damn you look so…

Unexplored…

showing the parts of you that you’ve convinced yourself have enough value….
let them see the flowers before they make a dispensary out of the other side and leave your garden up in smoke…

leaving trails of yourself behind on this journey in case love finds you…
but the day reminds you why you not prepared to deal with people not dealing with their own
so….

you are always quiet…..
now intentionally more than then….
when someone shows you they see you….
you will appear but from here….

take these flowers down and open the gates….
let’s your roses see the many forms of the sun that walk this earth….

there are minds and hearts that will operate more of the idea of your existence love I promise….

this doesn’t always have to end in a lesson….

where you end up….

misunderstood

mislead

mistreated

love your lies so much…I respond “I love you” before I ever say “I don’t need you”

you make me sick to my fuckin stomach but I love it cause sometimes…
it’s just butterflies going through their phases….

life can be a bitch…
so what makes you think I need you being her twin

no…
Im not calling you out your name….

yet let you tell it I’ve been….
arrogant……
nonchalant….
when it’s never really my fault……
that your emotions fall result to what you see….
so am I really nonchalant or you not getting the response you need…

“ain’t shit ass niggas that lie about hoes he got”

“Baby I’m not talking to shorty…
I just seen her at the party…”

“Nigga you a fuckin lie”

“SO WHAT DO YOU WANT HUH!!!”

you want……….

you want…….

a night where the space between these couches don’t become a war zone….

a night where silence makes itself at home before we even strip our clothes off from the night…

a night where you feel the warm embrace of your lover before the cold shoulder of your triggered partner….
and part of her know this….
still shows it no attention so in attempt to amend the hour of this night we choose silence….

footsteps in the distance sound awfully in tune with our desires while knowing they aren’t making their way to me…

yet they were…
and I sit..
blunt lit next to her with small waves of water across her skin…..

she looks at me with lounging eyes through thin smoke….

“I never want to win an argument…I don’t want to be right as much as I want to learn”

sometimes our tense moment trigger my need to make sure everything about me is fixed…
mixed with knowing I did my part….
in this relationship..

“me either….I need to express more of my emotional process but will that mean as much”

clearly we’re growing….
we have to stop arguing like we trying to see who walls are higher…

who guard has more durability….

boundaries are the strongest…

while walking along this journey we lost our rhythm and started racing each other….
and if I’m being honest I don’t want to cross the finish line if that mean our time is separate….

we are…..
Inseparable…

and I’ll let you know that everyday blissfully….

that I love you with all my heart….

even when..

most niggas don’t get a chance to be emotionally aware when it goes against identities we claim…

the world spoke about tears like fire to the skin….
spoke physical touch as violence and pain foundations before we knew hugs were the releasing of shackles….

boy don’t you be emotional…..
stop being in your feelings….
you too much for me…..
emotions don’t solve nothing….

denial before discovery makes these areas of awareness seem fairytale…
in what world is niggas allowed to feel before they partake in rolled or poured up numbness….

how many times can they feel worthless of prayer before finding a savior that’s turns succubus….
indulging in women as a form of validation without the try to invest in therapy….
emotional awareness is a tease to the core foundation men are held to on a morning basis….
 we sacrifice our break from gravity to make sure the world is stable enough for our loved ones….
and still….

we confuse them out lack of details…

switch native tongue to “Lies” the moment we’re asked “are you okay?”…

feels like a set up more than it is a safe space….

niggas don’t know emotional awareness more than exhaustion….

abandonment…..

loneliness…..

confusion…..

still we show up in whatever mask we feel best displays the human they take us as regardless of how much it takes from ourselves….

we never learned what self meant in the first place…
 so what’s that’s supposed to mean to a nigga just wanting a meal and a peace of mind….

I promise you…..

it confuses them as much as it leaves you scratching your head…
it leaves the clawing at the cage for pain to let them out….

the key…..

that key…

that got damn key man…..

is emotional awareness…..

yet sadly….

most niggas don’t get a chance to be emotionally aware…..

when it goes against….

identities we claim…

That was never ours….
