I rather be lonely than used communication in dating is lost we seemed confused

This beef between us is petty just a cycle of feuds You have your issues with dudes I have mine with women too

That don’t mean we should use these experiences as a standard

I want to grow with and understand you this drama is haphazard

I wish technology was advanced enough for me to read minds But since we primitive imma need you to translate as I read between the lines

Breathe for me one time. ease my mind Let me kno that you invested in sharing my time

Ill give you the best I can offer whether it be security or the valuables in my coffer

Im not a rich man and I may never be so I need to kno if that’s acceptable If not ill let you go and ill continue on down this road alone

Whats being broke we already broken I only hope then When - my words fall they wont be misspoken

Im hoping you Interpret my emotions just as I wrote them

Or maybe I should wait to recite this as I stare into the void that guards your soul burning through the ice that froze your window pains[panes] closed

Theres no limit to how hard ill go but if you betray my humanity this is the side Ill show

where im from only the concrete can help a black rose grow

that being said forgive my tone as I vent about being honest with a soul in shambles

When I wrote this it was for someone who I felt deserved my energy she was a sham though

So I rewrote the ending I was so livid to get over it I had to write out the forgiveness

Don’t get me wrong though I want to trust the intentions of women but just speaking with them is a gamble

I let her kno from the get go I rather be left alone than misused it was that simple

I assumed she was confused by this truth when the fact is her words never matched her actions

I felt like a goof So I put my self in the friend zone I fell backwards

She apologized leading me on and like a blind fool I came back to her

However I wont blame her without taking some blame myself

Because I let my emotions make the decisions I should have made myself

I had given up on love I said never again but life is funny if you fail one lesson you have to live through it again

So here I am making the same broken promises until another woman comes along to challenge my will powerlessness
