There's an aching in my soul

Yet, I can't find the key

There's a hole in my heart

You just don't fill for me

This world keeps turning

And I can hardly breath

I imagine myself standing

But am I on my feet?

I walk around in a circular motion

I've covered much ground

Found many things lost

Left many things broken

I see myself

Now I'm wide open...

I know not to where the wind flows

I know not to where the hurt goes

I only know the things I know

What was our worth?

What was our worth?

Enraged she held her hands back

With a guine display of dismay on his face

He tried but failed to turn away

Instead... he heard this loud slap

Yet, he stood there unfazed

And thinking to himself

...Am I having a bad dream?

Did this girl just put hands on me?

How can this hurt feel so real?

She wonders will this guilt disappear

Will his love ever be sincere
Was she the fool to even go there?

She longs to make the pain stop

She screams to get the “F” out!

No stop! Pause then this loud shout!

“I need my keys,” With her hands held out

He turns, laughing with his pride in tack

Threw her keys on the floor

Grabbed the small bag he packed

He chose not to look back

She felt so small and yet so tall; conflicted
She watched as he walked out

Her feet now glued to the floor

But somehow she fell down

The time she heard the door as it closed

She struggles to get up

Inside she just hurts

How could he just give up?

What was our worth?

The wind keeps blowing

See how it’s blowing

It flows through every tree

I keep waiting

O’ how I’m waiting

For the wind to blow down on me

I keep hearing that love don’t hurt

It’s a lie!  That pain resides in the deepest

Corner of your mind

If I thought about it

I’d be lying to self

When I…

Tried to walk away

But my heart refused to go

I thought I could release you

From the deepest corners of my soul

But I’m confined

Trapped in these dreams of mine

Now they got me high

But you let me down

The wind keeps blowing

See how it’s blowing

It flows through every tree

I keep waiting

O’ how I’m waiting

For the wind to blow down on me

I was always yours to have

You was always mine

We’ve loved each other

In and out

In and out

In and out of time!

Maya Angelou

I drew a map

You couldn’t see

It was a roadway

That led to me

I laid my head down

At your feet

Said I submit

To loves defeat

Yet as I go now

By myself

I know a truth

If nothing else

I’ve done it all

There’s nothing left

The wind keeps blowing

See how it’s blowing

It flows through every tree

I keep waiting

O’ how I’m waiting

For the wind to blow down on me
