Time moves too swiftly.
Relationships turn to rot
Without proper care.
Our lives become barren deserts.
Trying to replant again
Is a much harder struggle,
As the Earth is dry,
And the nutrients sparse.
But with care and effort
And a focus on the fleeting,
We can make our lives fertile
And regrow our relationships.
– Shaman Romney 2018
Let’s cut through the platitudes
The sweet talk, the attitudes
All the false talk and lies that don’t matter to you
Don’t ignore the darker skies
Look in front of your eyes
I think it’s time you realize
No one is ever going to change, unless they want to
And the more that you try, the more he’ll walk upon you
With all the things you’ve already been through
You don’t deserve it
I think its time he heard it
I think it’s time for you to take a stand
You’re not a stepping stone
You should be walking hand in hand
I know its hard
I see the love in your heart
But you got to start
To stop his abuse
I know you want to try, its no use
I know that you want to refuse
The truth
But I don’t think he will ever get better
