"Baby Steps"
  by ReFlecTion
  - This Poem is a response to the poem FREE THERAPY SESSIONS by Lo Key


With tears in my eyes…
I look at this lyrical beast

This


Lyrical Liar


Who remains so..

Lo
Key…

You see-it’s time for MY

therapy session

*door slams*

As I leave the house I can see you looking through the window
Eyes full of disgust and confusion
heartache and pain

But do I care

YES

but right now I need to vent
I need to get away from you and all of the crazy shit that you are putting me through

As I pull up to ’my session’ I take a second to gather my thoughts
Relax,relate,release

But wait

I can’t do it right now

I don’t want to spend one second discussing OUR issues with someone else

I want to talk directly to YOU..

It’s funny how you go on GS, Myspace, and everywhere else telling your side of the story
But let’s talk about what’s real

Let’s talk about all of the lies, the cheating
The ‘oh baby I love you” followed by you not coming home until four in the morning

The text messages to other women letting them know that you cant wait to be with them
And how one day-after I am out of the picture-ya’ll will be together

The e-mails about how you think SHE is still looking good….

But I’m not trippin because I am a child of GOD and




I

forgive

You





WHY??? Because I still see the man that I fell in love with
My sexy man with the enticing eyes
The man with so much passion and love for me
The man who desires to make me the happiest woman in the world

The man who promised to have and to hold

In sickness and in health….

So, you might say that I’m stubborn and that I am not trying to make this work
But I am

I just need time

Baby steps
as you say…

"standing Ovation" They dont realize how we feel when they put us through these things. I was in the same situation mama.. and being that You are a child of God, it's good that u forgive. Without that there is nothing. all the im sorrys - I love u baby - I wont do it again I promises - but the one thing thats makin u hold on is the thoughts of how he used to wine and dine, do little things, love u passionately and go out of his way to make u smile. I have been there. Its like you took these word...
