Returning Home to Love

Returning Home to Love

Time and time again,
I've made mistakes,
Yet you were there,
Any hour of the day—
Your love is on display in countless ways.

But I’m coming home,
To where love waits to comfort,
Where do you want me to stay?
I think of you lying awake,
Praying you’d come home,
My heart held hostage,
Your selfishness is shown.

Yes, you began to return,
But for how long this time?
I’ve learned from my past,
Not who I was yesterday—
I have grown.

We’ll see if you’re here to stay,
My heart isn’t for childish games,
No more begging you to come home,
But you better stay.
Come on home,
Where you truly belong,
No longer a revolving door,
Please don’t play with my heart,
But I want you to stay.

So come home,
Because this love awaits,
Been gone for too long,
This is where you should be.
I guess I begged anyway,
Because you’re worth the dramatic display.

Here I am

today is my reintroduction to the world  I decided that I will no longer hide  I made my decision right or wrong  it was mine to make I say no more apologizes It was my burden to bear,  my tears are gone  I made no mistake it is my testimony  Life is about hiccups and missteps  And learning and growing from them  So again I say Here I am world Even better than yesterday  I start anew never mind yesterday  Through it is changed me a lot  I must move on for what this day has brought is hope and redemption

I choose you

I chose you It's been a minute since I had a boo so I talked to you  But I had my guard up thinking something was off  Since they always said you're the likable guy But my mind just couldn’t comprehend it, so to me, it was a lie Just sitting and waiting for the other shoe to drop, always on edge Didn't you hear the respectful guys marry off quick or at least are everybody’s first pick, they are at the top of everyone’s list So society has helped me create a jaded lens which is how I see all men it's a sad statement but very true I know I can only trust a few Life, trials, and time have all but worked against you So I pick my fights and take my space manufacturing moments for you to stay away But you were persistent and fought through it all You said your instinct drew you to me Initially, I thought stalker please stay away from me But quickly realized what I would lose  I saw the good dude you had in you So I empowered you,  since that day I learned so much But I found

upward

Upward is where I look for direction in lost moment upward is were relay and place my expectations Heavenward I cast my prayers Replenishing my faith in a well so deep Upward is the place I envision where serenity lays and I share much grace For this upward place I prepare to go someday Not rushing just setting the goal A worthwhile life is all I seek  For upward bound is the place I hope to be.
