Love Vs Fate

I hate goodbye. One more try, one more cry, one more lie…. to my self. F-it!! Goodbye! Ish should have been in the shelf! So long, farewell, sayonara MotherF-Er Mother’s. F-ing. Tired. Tried and true but now she’s through. Ready for you to go but not ready to watch you leave. I still believe, hoping against hope, maybe this time but NOPE!! I heard vision is 20/20 from behind and love is blind. Hmmm, I disagree, I knew in a moment, just didn’t wanna own it. Acting like Jamie Foxx in Ray. Broke the truth and bought the lie. I finessed me, 2nd guessed me, choosing to perceive you would become your best for “we”. Knew it could & would never be what it should, that which I desperately longed to see. Jumping up and down. Cheering you on. Let’s go!!! Go! Go! Go! That’s my man! I knowwww he can!!! But you won’t because you don’t…. want to. No caption but I still get the picture. An illusion of love & happiness. A whole f-ing mess!!! In conclusion, we are for looks, the Book, likes & hearts…. SMDH…. Got folks thinking we showing out best parts Hashtag #relationshiphgoals Nahhhhh……Hashtag #Fakenews The real story goes untold. Whew!!! This ish getting old. I hate goodbye but I hate being fake.. had just about all I can take. Yeaaaa but I hate goodbye… ok, ok.. One more try. For real!! Love never fails…….not my story to tell. Pro-longing the pain, being strong in vain. It was never right, always wrong but I knew it all along. Put in ten to accept what I really already knew back then. Three thousand, six hundred and fifty days, five thousand ways. Eighteen hundred and 25 more before heading toward the door, no longer could I stay. Go ahead contemplate, have in-depth debate, no matter the length of the wait or how much you anticipate…. Love ain’t no match for fate. Seniqua Renee’ ??
