Struggle love

 Struggle love 

Struggle love 

Is not love….

Why do we have 

To feel pain?

Why do we have 

To stay in heartbreak?

You know it’s not love..

You know it’s not…

Society call it 

Struggle love….

Especially for black women

Like the endurance belongs 

To us….it doesn’t….

Let me tell 

You somethin 

Black women 

Have souls 

We can feel 

And we do deserve 

Love, not struggle love…

The real kind that leaves us breathless…

Do we have to cry?

Do we have to give up?

Cos our men did some dumb shit?

No….

For real, for real 

There are good men out there 

On this Mother Earth….

Good black men

Who don’t mind our laughter 

Our tears…

You may think I’m generalizin 

I’m not….

Real love 

Exists, the healthy one….

We just gotta take care 

Of our well beings 

And not think about 

Our dream man…

There’s more to life 

Than that…

If you decide to be single 

And happy, 

That’s alright….

If you give up sayin 

You don’t need a man, 

That’s your choice…

Even people who cares for you 

To encourage you to get back out there….

Real love 

Is possible….

Real love 

Doesn’t make you struggle….

Real love 

Is the loyal person who stays with you 

No matter what…

When you’re at your best 

When you’re at your lowest….

Struggle love 

Is just someone who 

Made it up 

To look like a stereotype…

It’s not…
