Row
rain's coming down
from self-doubt clouds
stress lightening
flashing all about
got a boat I
row and sew
to stich myself
stop panic bleeding
fastened extra tight
It'll last through the night
got to help you some
so here I come
got to love myself
before you find
someone else
got to love myself
before you love
someone else.
don't wanta make you choose
don't wanta ever loose cause
I belong to you
I belong to you
this boat I
row and sew
to stitch myself
Is filled with rocks
try harder and faster
make it to the dock
can't rely on you
to fix it all
my worth demands
make a call
Be stronger and wiser
cause after all
Got to love myself
before you find
someone else
Got to love myself
before you love
someone else
don't wanta make you choose
don't wanta ever loose cause
after all
I belong to you
from self-doubt clouds
stress lightening
flashing all about
got a boat I
row and sew
to stich myself
stop panic bleeding
fastened extra tight
It'll last through the night
got to help you some
so here I come
got to love myself
before you find
someone else
got to love myself
before you love
someone else.

Dear A,
Yes.
What a great write to remind ourselves we’re worth love. This made me think about the 9 out of 10 times a day I loathe myself, I appear dull and whiny to others. When I love me I’m charming and vivacious. Which, of course, is how you picture me. Right? … Right?! RIGHT?!!! I love me damn it!!!
Hehe just kidding. Terrific write. It’s wonderfully lyrical, song like- great meter. Greater messsge. H🌷

I have many male friends and they love confident women.
Not egotistical.
There is a difference.

Hi Relic!
Thank you so much for commenting:)
Um.. let me see. How to explain? Think of it this way.
When I think of rowing like sewing in this metaphor. It's like the paddles are the needle and they are stitching into the water so it doesn't turn over. In other words the water is the skin it is stitching. Hope that helps:)
Thanks for the like amigo!

Hey Bonita :) Learning to love yourself is so vital to having a healthy relationship with someone else filled with real love. When you are co-dependent and try to have the other person make up for your inability to love yourself that never goes well in the end. I love the lyrical flow and metaphors; I find them to be so interesting and creative. Another stellar write.

Hey Kristina:)
Thank you soooo much. Everything starts with you most of the time:)
How you live and love. I do try but I am not perfect. Far from it.
So when I write I like to put out positivity. Sprinkled with typos. LOL
I just fixed a few in Relics reply. Yikes!!!
Thanks for stopping by my sultry;)
amiga and giving me your thoughts.
