Last weekend, Anas and I ended our romantic partnership, and in my raw, cathartic processing, I wrote a song. I’m sharing the lyrics below and planning to record this beautiful song soon to post on my music page. While I let myself grieve and open to expansive growth, I hope you enjoy this piece:

***

I want to write a song about you | See just how you’re doing without me too

Let me write a song about us | I’ll jumble up the feelings, make it all so cruel

You captured quite an image and cleaned my back | Ordered yummy pastries, then it all turned black…

I wanted to crawl into your skin | Really I needed to stay in mine

You’re everywhere | You’re everywhere

Hours after and I feel so much | I see your lips, think about your touch

Then I look at all the times you got so mad | Held up your weapons, and I felt so sad

Like a porcupine, you grew so sharp | Pierced me where it hurt, like it was art

I ached to be inside your skin | Now I really want to stay in mine

I’m everywhere | I’m everywhere

In a day or two you’ll call me, want me back | Say you made a mistake, see what you had

Cuz I learned every detail of your face | Landing on your chest was my safe place

Two shaken souls, we went so deep | Did you really want to heal or just want sleep?

I miss the feeling of your skin | Now how I love to be in mine

In a few days, I’ll know | In a few weeks, my love will grow

It’s everywhere | It’s everywhere
