You are my biggest area of influence.
I can’t be around you and not be affected.
You have leveled me out & I have become your equalizer.
You are as I am.
Somehow balance has been achieved.
It’s that feel good intoxication, minus the morning after.
We’ve been tempered like steel & refined with purpose.

Forgive Me
Please forgive me.
Forgive me for letting my feelings run away with me.
I want to be what you want of me.
I just don’t know what to say when you look at me that way.
Please forgive me when I forget the words that express how I feel.
I know I’m not the only one.
Forgive me for letting my feelings get the best of me.
I want you in my every day.
But I need you to know that as much as I want you in my life, I do not need you to live.
I think too much far too fast.
Yet you listen to every word that runs rampant as I talk my way through until I’ve fully fleshed out each detail.
