St. Meave
By Force
dont be afraid, i wont take your love by force.
as if you wont give it, then whats it worth stealing for?
if it's something i have to fight for
then to me, it isn't pure.
and darling to me you’re adored
but i dont want it if i have to beg for it on the floor
a year ago ,
it would of gotten under my skin
but i have grown
i know what i deserve
i know what i am worth
as pure as the earth
i used to dream
that i was saturn
and that you'd give me a ring
but as that story goes
we all know it burns
i'll wave my white flag
and let it go
i'll stop this emotional war
from the sidelines of my mind
that try to scream at the heart
all inside, tearing apart
if i was selfish,
id use my one wish,
on you
but if you wont give me your love i wont take it by force
because then, it's half its original worth
and i know what i deserve
and you were rare
but stars align more than once in a lifetime
you were never meant to be mine
and if we were it would of been divine
but those realities only breathe in my mind
and in reality, we were meant to subside
and love is a unique kind
and eventually it is something i'll find
it'll be given into my warm palms
and itll bloom
