"Been there! I aint scared!"
  by Forchunit169
listen to soulcast


Sweet words and subtle gestures, throgh phone calls and text messages,
occupied thoughts on late nights make ya mind restless,
chance encouters, fresh conversations, and first impressions,
made on first dates then natural progression,
more talk a lot of laughter and sharing some life lessons,
that you only sharing to get some insight into their perspective,
trying not to seem to interested,
but never for a second let'em feel neglected,
stil cant cross the line first cause ya feelings must be protected,
yall discussed the situation of sex'n, regaurdless if you agreed with they perception, you decide to respect it, cause even without the sex shit, they just somebody you mesh wit, and you see a possible connection,
So,
Outcomes the affection, attempting to be the mate of perfection, making ya mate believe they made a dam good selection, and this is far from a waste of the time they investing, your loyalty's no question, ya heart tryin to move in a more deeply committed direction, tossing out the fears the doubts and the second guess, so they see it less as a relationship and more as a blessing,
THEN
Sombody gets disrespected,
OH ITS ON NOW,
wether you know it or not from that moment on ya relationship is leaking trust,
you on the highway doing ninety coming from being blessed to loosing us,
questions poppin up,
like if this amazing connection that turned to love was confused with lust,
and now that hurting me is a possibility ya word,
the shit just aint enough,
ya whole demeanor changing up,
frequent arguing on the phone no more sweet goodbye's just hanging up,
got you checking text messeges voicemails emails theyspace and facebook,
wanting to know who what when where why and how long it took,
searching shorts jeans pants pockets wallets and pocketbooks,
truthfully, they got you shook,
cause you know, it aint no such thing as halfway crooks,
so now you wondering whats the happenings when you be happening not to look,
and without the trust, the dying lust,
it would seem as if yall time was up,
cause no appologies or explinations can fix a fragile heart thats crushed,
kicked around stomped or brushed off they shoulders like some dust,
so for THEM let it be what it is and for YOU let it be what it was,
but next time you hear whispers of sweet words,
dont be afraid to fall in love like you never knew what it was.
