My calmed waters were rewarded.

I delivered my ego to the highest shelf

And put in work to be appointed to my truest self.

 

I sent prayers up

Blessings came down.

 

You came around,

 

And loved me like you were me

On some Kanye loves Kanye type shit.

 

Minus the narcissism and the scrutiny

My loss isn’t your gain

We’d both just take L’s

 

In you was imbedded proof that love is real

And sunshine comes after the rain

After I opened the drains, I saw flood marks stained my thresholds

But the way you love me makes it easy to let go

And trust the marks will fade

Just take it day by day and keep my pace

And look at your face when I’ve lost my way.

 

See you’ve got a piece of me I hope you never give back,

Just keep it and let the interest stack.

What we give to each other

We give to ourselves

I see your image at the bottom of wells now.

And I’m so grateful I calmed these waters

It would’ve been hard to tell, if the way you make me melt is something my soul is worthy of.

 

The rise and fall of the tides could never change my mind about you

You’re my reflection

And I will always choose to look in the mirror

Even when it’s hardest and I feel myself fear love.
