I felt the adrenaline in my veins.
I’ve seen the rage in my eyes.
I’ve smelled the fear in your lies.
You stood like a coward
defeated by the demons you empowered.
You may have chose our path,
but I embodied my wrath
with clinched fists and a firm voice
“I hope you rot in hell” was my choice
I smiled with dignity,
set fire to the mystery,
as I drink from my glass of victory.
Redemption with Authenticity.

Based on my true story
Desperation caused her to
search for truth, stumbling
across false words and bad intentions,
she became drunk on your lies,
and intoxicated on your lips.
She binged on your breath,
and trembled at your tongue
so vulnerable to heartache,
but the closest thing to love
she has ever known.

Another night, Another heartache
Another stranger, A different bed
It’s just a phase
It’s how it goes nowadays
A physical connection
Don’t open up; deflection
Just hope he can keep an erection
Leave before sunrise
Wear windblown hair as a disguise
Another day, They’re all the same
It’s just a game, Nothing new
When all I think about is you
– kristin l. cook
you’re a delightful craving
and a dangerous combination
you’re that chaotic adventure
to a gentle inhabited soul
you’re the imagination of pleasure
noticeably found in anticipation

Losing you, rescued my spirit.
Like a Phoenix rising from ashes,
I caught fire from all the second chances.
I spread my wings and fly
A mystic flight of oblivion
and only lingering embers of saudade.

“Character is who you are when nobody is looking”
The Hustle Of Humble & Kind
I rise above the noise.
I look deception in the face.
You want me to lose,
but I already won this race.
Fear couldn’t stop me.
Hell couldn’t break me.
If it’s a battle of the heart,
I got that.
If it’s a battle of the mind,
Yeah, I won that.
If it’s a battle of pride,
you can have it.
A life of emptiness and lies,
I don’t need it.
So just keep talking,
I’ll keep grinding.
It takes all kinds,
God has a purpose for all life lines.

i can see the truth in your eyes
your lies are a sad disguise
i gave you my heart
i gave you my life
then you made me your ex-wife
you stabbed me & turned the knife
said i made you less of a man,
so you left for a one night stand.

Hell couldn’t break my halo
And you still try to dim my shine.
