In My Feelings

I knew that you wouldn’t choose me.

If I took this step, you wouldn’t be afraid to lose me.

But how to compartmentalize feelings,

I never could understand.

Now I’m stuck with emotions I can’t comprehend.

While sitting at home trying to make amends,

Conflicted when I reminisce,

Should I really miss the way the we kiss?

Is it normal to think so much into it?

How can I push that out my mind,

When it made me feel so good inside?

Can you teach me to feel the way you do?

So I won’t be around missing you,

You make it look so easy when you never hit me back.

I wish I could feel like that.

A Cold November By: Dolisha DeVonne

He changes like the leaves

Turns as cold as the wind

No longer my gentle, warm love

Just frost and air beneath my skin

His kisses are as cold as ice

His touch no longer heats me

The words that once my heart

Disappear and no longer greet me

He is like the month of November

The coolness and dryness of a coming winter

No longer my gentle, warm love,

No longer my angel from above

Just another cold chapter of an unhappily ever after

No longer the kind love of so much laughter

Just another cold day with no warmth for shelter

The emptiness and sorrow of a cold November

Time-Dolisha DeVonne

They tell me not to worry about my future

Leave everything to chance

If it happens it’s meant to me, if not, it must not have been God’s plan

But every second of day

I find myself daydreaming away

Creating visions and “impossible” goals

Trying to fit together the pieces of my soul

I try and tried again to make my vision come to light

I’ve been laughed at, discouraged along the way, and sometimes lost the fight

But still, for some reason, I can’t stop dreaming

And this desire in my soul is telling me to keep reaching

I don’t know how long it’ll take me to make it there,

How many more times I have to fall,

But as long as this fire burns, I can’t sit still at all

Can’t afford to put my dreams in a box and let it sit

I know God wants better for me than this.

I’ve also come to realize that one thing consistent in life is change.

It comes whether you want it to or not, and once it passes life’s never the same.

Like the waves of the deepest, bluest ocean,

Life is designed to remain in motion,

And whether you ever learn the embrace your whole truth or not,

Time will never stop.
