We Accept the Love We Think We Deserve

 

I just think life is more than a series of moments, you know, we can make choices, and we can choose to protect the people we love, and that’s what makes us who we are and those are the real memories – forces of nature

This world keeps spinning faster
To a new disaster, so I run to you
I run to you, Baby

Learn four new things everyday. Something about yourself. Something about the people you love. Something about the world. And something about a stranger.

when everything breaks, you are the anchor that holds me
And that is why we’ll always make it
How I know your face, all the ways you move, you come in, I can read you
You’re my favourite book
All the things you say, the way you shift your eyes
I never knew there was someone, to make me come alive

Backwards, forwards but making no ground at all
Standing in the city with the clocks counting one
And your face is still wet from the fight before
As your tears hit the ground, blue flowers spring from them
Baby, I’m ashamed of the things I put you through
Baby, I’m ashamed of the man I was for you
And all you said in your quietest voice
Was “I needed you as much as they do”

To all the ladies havin babies on they own
I know it’s kinda rough and you’re feelin all alone
Daddy’s long gone and he left you by ya lonesome
Thank the Lord for my kids, even if nobody else want em
Cause I think we can make it, in fact, I’m sure
And if you fall, stand tall and comeback for more
Cause ain’t nuttin worse than when your son
wants to kno why his daddy don’t love him no mo’
You can’t complain you was dealt this
hell of a hand without a man, feelin helpless
Because there’s too many things for you to deal with
Dying inside, but outside you’re looking fearless
While tears, is rollin down your cheeks
Ya steady hopin things don’t all down this week
Cause if it did, you couldn’t take it, and don’t blame me
I was given this world I didn’t make it
-Tupac “Keep Ya Head Up”

Because life goes on even when it aint so sweet.

I wear my ring on a chain now, instead of my hand
And I deal with your memories the best I can
And I’ve even been out on a date or two
Someday I might get over you

You can’t rely on someone to make you feel alive.

“I just have this image of the life I want and I’m not going to let that fade. My english teacher said that that’s pure magic, having a dream and something to strive for, something to be. To know what you want and to work for it, that’s good stuff right there.”

 

 

I miss her simplicity. The way she was able to keep her eyes to the sunlight in the darkest of times gave me so much hope. I miss her complexity. Every single word she spoke or thought she revealed kept me yearning for more. And every day, my love for increased.
