Pierre Jeanty

Love her the way you crave to be loved.

If you thirst
for a love that
will drown all of the doubts
growing in your soul
and the fear vacationing in your mind,

You must never settle
for someone who lacks passion
in their eyes when they stare at you.

The pain will come,
let it visit,
cry it out,
vent it out,
bleed it out.

And then ask it to leave.

Do not allow it to build a home
and call it broken.

We aren’t meant to be broken forever,
that is punishment to our hearts and minds.

The sun and the moon
take turns admiring her,
the sun watches her rise,
as it finds its way to
the other side of the world
to cover its next shift.

The moon tags in
to watch her sleep.

You owe no one an apology
for being yourself.

What good are flowers without water?

What good are promises without actions?

You are more
than worthy of love.

However,
you will never be
worthy enough
to someone
who isn’t worthy
of your love

You deserve
to be with
someone
who searches
for the beautiful
things in you.

Her broken heart is searching
for a new reason to love again
more than it is trying to find
a hand that will help it
get back together.

It knows eventually
it’ll become whole again, but it must
have the hope that once lived at the center
of it to be there before it is restored

If you thirst
for a love that
will drown all of the doubts
growing in your soul
and the fear vacationing in your mind,

You must never settle
for someone who lacks passion
in their eyes when they stare at you.
