Maya Reminds

For Maya Angelou I always hear her voice especially in sorrowful times.

Sitting on the bed where we lay

I held him close after making love on our last day

i went insane

Told him he must leave her

On us I commit murder

i know he never will

I love him still

We can't be

i make him leave

He tells me we can try to be friends without sex

Thank you, next!!

Sad how our bodies are loved

My heart not so much

I let him go

While my friends find their guys

I find myself out on the cold this time

The next day after work with my best girl in another world

I fly by midnight

I danced in blue and green lights

On the lead singer's shirt i see butterflies

I came alive again with this newness of life

Just like Maya reminds still I rise

Moving on keeping strong

This will not be the death of me

I am the memory he chooses to keep on repeat, yet leaves

Its the sad mystery

i leave him behind

Now the sadness are what lies ahead for miles

i lift my wings for this new flight

As Maya reminds still I rise
