lyrical diary

i sit here

with my books piled high

and my to do list over flowing

but nothing is getting done

i close my eyes

and my mind begins to drift

with Aaliyah's voice filling my ears

as i feel the sun's warmth

painting my arms through the window

leaves me wondering

how do they know what words to write

to make you feel like you aren't alone

back then when things weren't looking so good

somehow she knew

the one i gave my heart to

heartbroken

when you woke up

read between the lines

when you found the strength to make a change

never no more

when you decided second chances were no longer an option

i refuse

and turned to yourself

more than a woman

she knew life could go on

when something new caught your attention

can come i come over

and made you feel 16 again

4 page letter

at your best
