I came to you an innocent
Thinking you were angel sent
The first touch came from you to me
Under your guidance I shaped the woman I came to be
You watched me grow up and took your time
I was patient; thinking you were mine
I figured what I gave to you was beyond measure
I figured what I gave, you would always treasure
So, I worked and worked and did alright
I left it on the table night after night
I left myself bare and showed it all
Depending on you to catch me if I were to fall
You did your thing and matched my hustle
I kept it soft; you flexed your muscle
Together we became a force
So much so, eventually we said “of course”
And then she came; she made us three
It’s you, it’s her, it’s y’all for me
To them I give what they deserve
But I always keep for you in reserve
So now I am a woman in love
And my world was rocked because of my sister’s shove
Private became public and the rumors flew
With everyone speculating what we were going to do
Silence has always been my weapon of choice
Until I am ready, then I use my voice
I sing the emotions that are in my heart
I sing it so I don’t fall apart
Celebrity. Role Model. Icon. Wife.
Feeling the pain as sharp as any knife
I am yours; you vowed to be mine
Why put all we have on the line?
Look beyond the moves; please look behind my eyes
Look way down deep where the pain lies
Listen to my words, how they honor you
Then look at our creation; baby please look at Blue
I am simply a woman in love
Whose world was rocked because of her sister’s shove
But the sight of you still brings out the child in me
My beloved, you are still my destiny
So many of us have been here (well, not exactly here), but the “here” with a broken heart; in fear and confusion, in pain. I dare to imagine I know what she feels; I dare to speak some of the words I imagine she would like to… Fury.
