Third Wave
It is innately encoded in my aorta
I cannot forgive a sinner who provoked my heart
PURPOSEFULLY
Someone I softly informed of my wishes
To remain unbothered until healing was complete
Come with your humanness and we'll unpack your attachment
But I'll take you at your word.
I would love to be one of those girls
Who are gathered in a circle and bought into a seance
Where wisdom is bestowed
Training my mind into numbness
And my heart into stone
Never feeling, never hurting
I want to bask in the glory of you coming home at the end of the day
I want to be on my knees
Because you respected me enough to hide your secrets
I want the glue that keeps my lips sealed
The water that permanently blocks eardrums
Not hearing you creeping in
