Acclivity

Illusions 

Die Quickly

And Leave Us 

Far Worse Off 

Than If We Faced 

Reality

Dualistic Gallantry

 Faded

Often Stated:

Closed Mouths Don't Get Fed

Many 
Vocalize Themselves To The Point
It's Synonymous 
With Begging 

A Courtship's Hellish Heaven

The Gaddafi 
Of 
Boundaries

No One Can Trust
 A Person
Who Tries To Please 
Everybody

Reverted 
Weaponized 

Transgression  

Inability 

To Sustain 

Garnering 

The Opinion 

Of Another

Assumptions Misplaced 

Doesn't Offer 

Guidance

It Is A 

Hinderance

 That Smothers 

Krazy Glued 

With The

 Others

Mentality 

Stuck In A

 Rut 

Sameness

Confidence Purpose: 

Self Sufficiency

 Battle

 Tested

Glorified

 Inward Journey 

Levitation

Sometimes You Have To Stand Alone

To Ensure You Can

Still Stand 

Rising 

Above

 Temporary 

Circumstances 

Never 

Demanding 

A Set 

Of Footprints 

In The Sand

Triumphs

Walking Together

 In The Wrong 

Direction

Invest In Us

Not For Sale

Not Asking For Help

Not Out To Get You

Or In A Rage

 Just Searching For Self
