Tip toe



Tip toe around death
cause I heard heaven was one hell of a place
After every funeral
Life must go on
Ppl talk about time heals
What about the things time kills
Tiptoe around love
Cause I’ve always loved you more
Hearts don’t break even
U gave me my heart back
But in pieces
Haven’t completely healed
Bc I’m still bleeding
Tip toe around happiness
Cause it’s fleeting
Once it’s gone
It’s almost like you never had it
Tip toe around you
Cause we
Went from love birds To strangers
All these euphoric memories
For us to barely be friends
I’ll always remember the hope that left
Tip toe around myself
Because I’m me
A hopeless romantic
With the strength of kings
Can heal others
But can’t heal self  
That’s why I tip toe
Like a thief in the night
To sneak
And creep
Around the madness

I've went through so much and still am. I miss my daughter Zoey so much. Her mother thinks its best for us to not see one another for some reason. So a lot of my poetry is based on her. Missing her, and how much pain I'm going through without her. I have a good girl friend and she has been going through all of this with me. Shes a blessing to me. I love you Jenny Lynn. more…
