Finessed

You always say to keep it real but the truth is that you don't really mean it.

You don't want the raw.

 You want it watered down and easy to take.

You live for those sweet little white lies.

You to always be to told how good you are, how nice you look, how sharp you dress.

The truth is no one could care less.

You want be  swept off your feet.

You want to be showered with compliments.

Being told your good isn't good enough for you.

You want to be flattered.

You want someone to be overwhelmed and thourghly impressed.

You want to be patronized.

You want to be finessed.

Lights out

It was once a mere beacon.

It shone brightly.

It was incandescent.

It was fleeting.

It was once beaming.

It has now been reduced to a mere flicker.

It slowly got doused. 

It won't be long now until it completely burns a the way out.

Love it

Put some love in it if you want it to taste better.

Love unsparingly  if you want to stay together.

Put love in to achieve the desired effect.

Put some love in it even on your last breath.

Love truly conquers all.

Do it with love or don't it all.

Not feeling you

You feel me?

No.

No I don't feel you.

I don't feel your struggle.

I don't your struggle.

I don't feel your pain.

Your not making it plain.

All your saying is you feel me.

What am I supposed to feel exactly?

How am I supposed to feel any sort of recompense?

Break it all the way do for me.

Make it make sense.

Make it plain.

I don't know what your saying.

No.

I don't feel you.

No way.

 You can give some people your all but that still won't be good enough for them.

If  you give them this they'll want that.

Their is litteraly no pleasing people like that.

So when you encounter  these types of individuals use the power no.

 Just tell them no flat out.

Say no with no remorse or empty feelings of doubt.

Say no until your voice goes horse.

No,I will not take you.

No, I will not wait for you.

No, I will not cosign for you.

No, I will not endorse you.

No, I will not support you.

No, I will not give you my all my time.

No, I will not listen to you vent.

No, I will not organize your life.

No, I will not lend.

No, I will not get in between that.

No, I'm not jumping in your fight.

No, I don't have time to hear your plight. 

No, your not my top priority. 

Learn to say no unapologetically. 

They didn't appreciate all the times you did not.

Say no and walk away.

If they have a problem with that then let them rot.

Time enigma

Contrary to all unpopular belief I do not heal all wounds.

However I do march on even if you stand still.

You can waste me frivoulsy or utilize me wisely.

Some people loose the plot because they refuse to take me.

I move differently from to region to region.

I am a constant.

I am ever lasting.

I never stand still.

I never change.

I'm not a magician but I can vanish in the blink of an eye.

What am I?
