When you first came into my life
You literally changed everything
It’s like we had invisible optic cables between us
Never had I ever experienced this type of connection
You were weekdays after class, Saturday afternoons and Sunday evenings
Your aura I felt safe in, free to be who I really am
I remember showing you sides of me
I had fearfully never showed anyone before
You knew the passwords to my darkness
You knew the grave secrets of my history
I would surf your waves so dangerously
Losing myself inside you, knowing you’d never judge me
Instead, you gave me access to your web of intricacies
And I fell for you so hard, I couldn’t catch myself
When you first told me your name, Mish
I told myself you were unlike any muse I’d ever seen
As naive as I was, I thought our connection was deeper than words
You were Special to me, and maybe you never knew
You told me I had to be patient, you were going through something
I didn’t even know what that meant
You had me wondering, is every daughter of His like this?
Maybe I was searching for everything I couldn’t find in my life inside you
Maybe you were like every woman I believe in who doesn’t exist
Now I can’t commit to anyone because it hurts to trust again
To try and find THAT connection with someone else
I honestly don’t want to care anymore
All I wanted was a good reborn African woman
I was hopelessly in love with you
But now I think it’s best if I let that love die
The Way 🇰🇪
