#NPM14: Day 5- She[lter]

Sometimes we chase people, places, things that don't welcome us how we should be welcomed. We love people according to what they put in the atmosphere about their feelings for us and we dive head first into that possibility. We fall for people who have fell for people that they can't run away from and expect a manifestation of true love to appear despite the crowded situation we've found ourselves in. We tell people to leave something with the expectation that they will when they never intended to go anywhere when we came along. Sometimes... we want a person more than they want us but they want us to be still in our want for them. Sometimes... we scream from mountain tops how perfect we are for them only to have them plug their ears out of fear of leaving the familiar. 
Listen, let him be with her... 
and stop allowing your heart to have unprotected sex. #noweight






She[lter]

You love what you shouldn’t because when your heart tells you where it should be you laugh in the face of honesty.
Fear will only get you so far in a shell that you’ve let me penetrate only to regurgitate my existence in your life.
She’s.
Safe.
For.
you.
But.
I’m.
The.
Truth.
I’m the one you chose to lean on when
wind storms caught you walking and
cell phone companies left you less talking
but more communication with my soul.
We found ways to ride the sound waves,
master the maze,
and complete the courses that didn’t allow excuses.
Or even understand what they were.
I’m your new beginning and she’s your, NOW.
Your, “next please!!! BUT not right at this moment” because you’re scared to step into the world that welcomes all that you are.
All we have grown to be.
All that I am.
Sometimes condoms break leaving you pregnant with a life you only wanted for your right now.
When you play it safe, your heart ends up late.
Soul completely delayed.
Mouth cotton based.
Us no more dazed.
In love a foreign place.
Lost without a trace.
You should’ve could’ve stayed.
Let’s stop playing these games...
YOU step out.
From playing it safe...
