“Not quite there “

chana

Tough love, 

Rocky hills with sharp edges. 

You smoothed my walls away

Molded a path beneath the dirt to stand upon. 

I was made to stay. 

Said a prayer for better days , but I wasn’t heard. 

Left stranded with a shovel in my hand 

Which god did I refer too ? 

Led me to the peak so I can catch the sunset

I caught the blue tint in your eye as you started to undress. 

Forgive me if I’m new to this commitment that I chose to carry 

And removed all my thoughts and began to progress. 

 Rid me away for everything I have 

Bid me a new woman in your hands as you marry

A foreseeable future in thy kingdom come 

But I rather see another sunset.
