This Is Fate & U know It

Folder: 
Love

In life we are given things

sometimes for free



i.e.



love



fate comes along and

Bam! Drops it in your lap

not to entrap you

but because maybe life

or fate feels you deserve it



but we are human

which means we are prone to

fuck it up



instead of allowing fate to flow

and be free

we all-of-the-sudden

become certified PhDs

in pyschology

we begin to analyze

this love

judge this love

pick apart this love

lower our own damn

self esteem by

questioning this love



when the smallest thing

starts to go wrong

you start saying "this

is happening for a reason"

Fuck that!

Seasons change for a reason

there is no reason to love

there is no rhyme to love

it happens

it comes

it hits you

and knocks your ass over

it immediately shows you

that you can't control it

you can't hide it

you can't deny it

it even has the balls to ask you,

"why even bother try'n?"



It lets you know it controls

you by confirming it thru

stomach butterflies

teary eyes

that excited feeling

between your thighs

sweaty hands

& you still don't understand

you don't control this shit

its fate baby let it flow

let it be

fuck all the psychology

the more you try to push

it away

the more you will piss

off fate



but



we are human which means

we are prone to fuck it up

This is the poem i was referring to earlier. I really like this piece, despite the colorful adjectives :) Very true and very real.
