Kin

We use to be really good friends, but word on the street is I stole her man. The only question is, how? We hung out for months yet she never mentioned they got down. She never mentioned that he was on her team. To do that deliberately I'd be considered mean. I mean, had I known I would have stayed clear. Maybe she never told me out of fear. Fear that I'd tell her next. Now that I think about it, he has the same last name as "our" Ex. -L' Mo

Writer Blocked

I remember a time when writing eased my soul. So easy it was for words to unfold. But as of lately it tears my heart. Every alphabet written tearing me apart. As I write I'm forced to face my truth. Lords knows that's not something I'm willing to do. Right now I just want to live in my little bubble of pain. Nothing to lose. Nothing to gain. Kind of on auto pilot coasting from one day to the next. But now I can't help but wonder what's next... -L' Mo

Fight or Flight

I've been told that if it's worth it, it's worth fighting for. But what happens when you see signs you can't ignore, like empty condom boxes on the floor? Is that worth fighting for? Do you set your pride aside and let it ride? Or do you confront the issue, only to end up with tissues wiping your tears? Both fears being exposed, he's doing wrong & you'll soon be alone. Is this fight worth fighting? Maybe it's all a misunderstanding, but can you stand to get an understanding. Or have you taken all you can stand? -L' Mo

Blind To The Fact

He talks to HER all day. But when night falls, everything seems to get in the way. He didn't have a signal, his power was off, maybe it died. Never crossed HER mind that he may have lied. Never crossed HER mind that he has a girl at home. Never crossed her mind that SHE sees him the last remaining minutes of the holiday. Never crossed her mind that she talks to him at work or in his car. Never crossed her mind that she never talked to him while at home. Never crossed her mind that he has given HER his spare time, if & when available. Or maybe it did cross HER mind she just refused to acknowledge the obvious. Obviously SHE'S happy with whatever she can get. Cause in HER mind, it's more than just sex. -L' Mo

Tug Of War

I told you I hate you before I ever told I love you. Therefore I knew we were doomed from that point on in. We probably should have remained friends, but then again... who am I kidding... Our chemistry is undeniable, reliable in fact. Because that's how we keep on coming back to one another. If it were left up to our pride, all feelings would hide because we refuse to submit & admit either of us is wrong. So we go on with this constant battle, steady tugging & pulling, waiting to see who will fall in. -L' Mo
