Best Parts

By Torrean S. Shaw

I was an immature fool once

Maybe twice

Looking for love in the wrong places

Lusting over connection to disband the void

I was completely in disarray

Hitting new lows

The only way for me to recover

Is through accountability and self search

I didn’t want nor need anyones forgiveness

Because I made the choice to forgive myself

Look inside my self

Destroy myself instead of listening to

The back handed compliments

The arrogance of another’s pain

There is nothing they can do to heal me

I look in the mirror

I had the conversation

Everything is now understood

I found the love of my life

It was right in front of me the whole time

I filled that hole with self love

I spoke love into myself heart

I became the man I always wanted to be

I didn’t need affirmation from others

I got them already from myself

I knew I needed to stop believing in my own stories

And start believing in a higher love

By the good lords name

I got that love

Now the best parts of me are able to love you

And love what and who are best for me

Thank you………
