writing this love letter to my heart...
it seems like I've allowed my precious stone to be used and abused by many
not guarding it like I should have, I have grown alone and bitter
why must I be this way at such a young age,
I guess it's because I put more value on a man's lies than God's truth
silly me,
I can only blame myself because I know that I can do better
can't allow myself to be a door mat for other people's baggage
I have my own life to live, which really hasn't started
confused at this idea and this word we all call love
but believe it or not, I used to know how it felt and exactly what it was
having that relationship with God sealed the deal on my soul,
having found my real first love, the kind of emotion that I didn't want control of,
misleading snakes in the grass of unrighteousness, I allowed to wrong seed to manifest
holding my heart in my hand, I vow never to allow it to hurt again
placing a firm wall around it, making it hard for anyone to come in
taking my time and being cautious of my surroundings,
praying to God that the man worthy for me will find me
making a promise to my heart is easier said than done,
but I refuse to let go because the race has not yet been won
finishing my letter, holding my deepest gratitude
refusing to give my heart to just anyone unless it's the man that my heart falls in love with, too....
