There is going to be a time when someone says "you cant do it" that's when you turn around and say "watch me"


When you died my heart shattered like a window
And fell into the darkness where my fears wait for me
My brain is bucket full of disaster

Ever since you left
The night breaths like a tiger
And I've become the definition of troublesome: a Lion

I remember I fell in love with you
When you brought toothpicks for the corn
I remember all the unusual things we would look up:
A bath of toothpaste
A key chain made of toenails
But the only image that wasnt an unusual
was of a mother and a biracial child

I remember the rain falling on my flesh and falling onto your eyelids
But all that is going through my head is
Wanted Ms. Cordes for being my love
I loved you but you died and now the battery of our love is dead
But you didn't die because of nothing you died for…
       a small wonder…
          our baby
I love you and I will never forget all those memories we made
I will always make sure she knows her mother ...
       You.
