For best experience, listen to my music while reading this poem.
...
I took a trip to my ex's house, to see if I missed him
But deep down inside, I knew it was just a whim
My alter ego was kickin' in, tryna mess with my head
But I packed my pride and shelved my libido instead
I stopped my searchin', realized it's me that I'm hurtin'
And there's no room for doubt, my heart needs some assertin'
I promised myself I'd stay strong, and not ask for his help
I don't need nobody else, I'll do it myself
Just 'cause I'm afraid of lovin', don't mean I don't wanna try
I'm runnin' circles with no shame, but I won't lie
It's lonely comin' home to nothin', it's time to make a change
To find the love that I deserve, and break away from this strange
So I hit the streets, emotional baggage in tow
Asked a man for help, and he had a wisdom to bestow
He held my hand, and asked where this weight was from
I told him it's from cheap love, and the battles I've won
Little did I know, he was a veteran of love
And he'd help me find my way, like a guiding dove
We chased up the South with some cherry wine
It's lookin' like there's somethin' in the air tonight, a love so divine
I promised myself I'd stay strong, and not ask for his help
But with him, I found a love I never knew I felt
I'm no longer runnin' circles with no shame
I've found my way, and it's time to stake my claim
Just 'cause I was afraid of lovin', didn't mean I couldn't try
I found the love that I deserved, and now I'll never say goodbye
No more comin' home to nothin', my heart is finally full
I've found a love that's true and pure, and it's all because I was bold.
