lyrics:
i love u.
and not just for the sake of my Lord.
or for the sake of good.
I love you for no reason. no longing has every lived in my heart, resided in my chest,filled my every breath, or taught me how much of myself has not ever been mine…until this
i would have never begged.
you.
use my body in remembrance of your Lord
use my body in remembrance of your lust.
turned into love
turned into life
within me
sacred secret
held in silence
upon me
your breath is sweetenough to swallow
i love you
ugly
riddled with scars
wounds in partst
hat are hidden
and holy
and lonely
for your return
i gave birth to your nation
before you decided to leave me
now im left with tribes that must be tended to
memories that must be remebered too
i was once so beautiful that you could not bring your eyes to greet my grace
bring your eyes to see my face
hold my scent you seek to trace
my sweetnees in my absence
my secret since then has beena love story told
out loud leaving out all the good parts
bleeding still my poor heart
for brown girls that love too hard
against hessitations
eeking our fathers faces
in men we dont recognize
in love that wont compromise
for brown women that stand by your side because we know our absence
will disable you
render you def dumb and blind
my love is my art
that is too abstract for you to honor
so i will bless you
in your worst of times
by remaining loyal
even when you walk away
