Solitude

So tonight I'll lay here in sweet soft bliss

The kind I hope you still not miss

Although the day was hard it's true

You still got through it, yeah just you

You think you need that someone new

Instead just see the lovely you

When you cry tears I cry them too

Maybe I'll keep that between me and you

I will not call I will not text this solitude is what fits you best

I will empower you to be strong

Make you face that you were not wrong

If you were so let it be

Forgiveness is the greatest key

Still I think you think too harsh

Upon the future, Upon the marks

I will draw your composure

I will write you a lesson

Let the pain take over

Let it become your blessing

It lasts only moments

Then the soul will resume

Take over the hurt and sew you anew

But if you continue to chase the disease

Or run from the pain that most do with ease

Full circle it will come

Or hide deep below

Waiting to get you

When your guard is most low

Take this from me I hope these words help

They come from a spirit who's been through hell's depths

Sometimes I think the soul likes to see

How far it can take you

Until the body agrees

That only God matters

The rest is just ease

All else will be taken

Until it's shown it's just he

And the solitude was just fitting

Justifying your needs.
