Your Ways of Inertia

My poetry is what makes me happy;

but if I were happy, I wouldn't need the poetry to be.

I see your hearts breaking without opening your chest,

so I rest underneath to catch the tears

because that's what you'll express when you have nothing left.

To look inside and say you feel numb,

but numb is still one greater than none.

The older I get my heart feels young;

the flesh is none without my soul

and my soul is none without one.

My mind spewing out like a hot gun

because love is all I want!

Spirit resurrecting without passing the sun.

Then God’s son came down to allow my body more than one love.

Unconditional love was injected into my blood.

Sacrificed the vices for the nicest love from above.

Some say f**k love

because their love has been fucked!

Lightning struck and I reached out my hand to pick you up.

And if you didn't need my help,

you could always find me without yelp.

You got yourself,

but know I got yourself just as well.

Wishing on a well and not a star because what goes up must come down.

Your ways of inertia.

Your steady inconsistency took the best of me…

And that’s okay.

Out of control when you try to grasps the things

You cannot control

Because you have never held a hold.

Wow, brother. This was really something that hit me on a deep-rooted, personal note. Speaking to some of my yesterdays with this one.
J.Cole said "don't save her, she don't wanna be saved.." and in relation to this, it can fit right in seamlessly.
Some have been broken beyond knowing how to really receive love, even as the love is genuine. It comes as a defense mechanism against their own yesterdays.
Great write of yours, bro. Even if I'm late to the dance.

Love J. Cole and his Friday Night Light. Totally forgot to add dude to our list haha
And I think that is where I'm stuck stuck, I no longer know how to receive it, so I just give it out 'till someone else takes it.I have one lady I've been hot and cold with for seven years now, but the timing is never on point. It's just not as simple as it used to be. We're all fucked up lol

I never read 'f**k' in a poem dedicated to God before - or maybe I did and I just didnt take any notice.But its only another word and its YOU so I accept it.
You produce some fine lines in your writing Sin - some really fine lines - like this -
"You got yourself, but know I got yourself just as well."

"Your ways of inertia - keep moving.
Your steady inconsistency took the best of me…" - this is also quite stunning to me.

Another RR by JT here - appreciated !
