Black love, on fire
Burns brightest
And then sputters
fails. Needs constant jumpstarts.
Needs nursing sometimes beyond reason.
Swaddling sometimes baby steps...
And then falling
Get back up. Don't quit ever.
Not so many weekend getaways we had
Very few rose petals
But we say yes to lots of bacon and grits
To bedtime bowls and cheerios
We lost that
Now just weary and tired of
Too many lies and secrets and
Non prioritization
Too much rage and fear
Not enough time for redemption
Time and time again
Violation
Foul
No and no and no
Too many negatives
