It's finally Friday! And this month is already flying by!
Music and poetry go hand in hand. Music ushers an extra breath of life into poetry, making it jump up from a notebook page and dance with a beat.
So, today, I am sharing one of my favorite songs from one of my favorite female artists, Jhené Aiko.
Enjoy "My Mine" and check out an excerpt of the poetic lyrics below.
With Love,
-T. Amour
Memories sinkin', deep in, leakin' in my mine,
All of the time tried to forget you,
Thought I could get you to be mine.
Memories sinkin', deep in, leakin' in my mine,
All of the time I can't forget to,
Tried to forget you in my mine
Pretend to not have the patience,
Pretending there is enough time for waiting,
Remembering when we kept it all basic,
I wanna go back so that I could taste it
What do I care for?
You were not there anymore
I was not careful,
That is all your fault,
You let me fall
Memories sinkin', deep in, leakin' in my mine,
All of the time tried to forget you,
Thought I could get you to be mine.
Memories sinkin', deep in, leakin' in my mine,
All of the time I can't forget to,
Tried to forget you in my mine
Buried alive here inside a nightmare,
Living a life where you're gone,
There is no light here,
It will be light-years until my mind's clear (you're gone)
I did it all for love,
I did it all
I'd trade it all for you
I'd trade it all
But what do I care for?
What are you here for?
If you're not there when I call?
I was not careful,
And that's all your fault,
You let me fall
