Every artist needs inspiration
And you are mine
You know the sort of passion you can't help but write down
The type of morning thought that opens the curtains wide
Like a bliss of silence with the humming of birds
I look down and see your name on my phone and my joy remerges
And I carry your words through the day like a sun on my heart
That keeps me warm in the cold and gives me light in the dark
And when the night comes I like to gaze at the stars
How it feels when I look into your eyes in the car
Just like the 4th of November

Every man needs inspiration
And you are mine
You're my rider
Even when I was broke and when I'm broken
You don't compare me,
you don't air me
You go the extra mile for my emotions
That's why I do these miles just to see you for a moment
Someone to keep you calm when people try to push your buttons
To open up about the things you hide inside and keep uncovered
Your burden is easy, you're so lighthearted
I can be a child again
Smile and forget about my worries like I'm running through the park again
You don't judge me
You just hug me
Feel like I can be myself again
Be goofy
You won't loose me
Pull a face so you can laugh again

You're such an inspiration
Because everything you've been through and overcame
Giving birth and raising a child while her dad was gone
All the hurt, all the loneliness and all the pain
All I can say is you'll never need to be alone again
The world needs more people like you
More people who are selfless cuz there's only a few
More women who are givers not just takers of dudes
More soldiers and more angels who are filled with the truth


Your place feels like home, that is where I reside
That is why I'm always late coming home at night
Because I want to make the most of the racing time
That always seems to slow when you're not by my side
You said people left you in the past when they found out about your daughter
Let them falter
Because in my eyes
I woulden't change a thing,
You two are my joy and pride

And honestly it struck my heart like lightning
When she called me her father
I didn't realise until the light of thunder
When I pondered on them words before slumber
That...all the dreams I had when I was younger
To have a family
Is now fantasy reality and wonder
You're a constant reminder
That God is good to me
Truthfully, I was going to give up before your entry
You told me you were the same
So I know that it's God artistry
We were strangers, casualities
Of a society where loving unconditionally
Is something of a lucid dream
Walking through the desert
Firsting for water to kiss our lips romantically
Paint splatting on the canvas
We both struggled to live
And felt like death would be a doorway to a beautiful bliss
Paint splatting on the canvas
And as I was overdosing you drew lines on your wrist
Paint splatting on the canvas
Until God stepped in saved our life that was hanging on the cliff


And as we wipe our tears, take a step back
And look at the passionate mess
We start to see the bigger picture
As the lines start to fade
And on top of it a tattoo on your wrist is drawn with a semi colon
Representing a sentence that carried on instead of caved
We were art in the making
God kept us alive because he had a plan that's better
And these meds are just battle scars from our past endeavours
our pain gave us compassion to love eachothe
Our sorrows made us hope of a better tomorrow together
Ecclesiastes teaches us that all this life is vanity
To live, to laugh, to love. Two go further when in unity
And our unity
Was orchestrated up in heaven
Such a stunning symphony
I feel the embrace of loving peace
Overflowing with gratitude for everything God has done for me
More confident, I hold my head high I never face defeat
Because you gave me reasons to keep fighting for our family
I'm so content with my life even when life is a stormy breeze
Or a vicious stream
I know at the end of the day I will end where I'm supposed to be
And that's Within your arms
...Holding me

Feels like the yesterday that happened years ago
That me and your daughter were strangers on FaceTime
She would ignore me because she was too shy
Now she's saying "we love you"
And you tell me she ask for me when I'm not around
And that melts my heart allot
Because you can tell that even though she's young
having a father in her life is something she's wanted for so longAnd it's something I always wanted too
To have a child that I can love and care for
Even better that her mum is the woman I yearn for
An amazing mother
An amazing woman
An amazing girlfriend
One day you'll be a great wife
All the best artwork comes from great lest inspiration, right?
