break me please

Oh my darling
you love me so well
while You give me heaven
i give You hell
and 
this tug o' war game
has had me so tired
for some time now
But
thank You for enduring
it keeps You winning
and that doesn't bother me
any
really
because
if i'm winning
then 
i'm losing
and still better off
eventually
and
while i'm pushing
You're pulling
picking up this intentional 
slacking
and here i am
some sort of "man"
and
what am i to think of myself
as a man
who rejects
my lovers help
if unable to accept this
perfectly imperfect love
how will i ever
receive the love of the perfect ONE
three in ONE
that's how much he loves me
he became three
to take care of miserable me
i cannot handle the imperfect love 
of one
let alone three perfect ones
i don't want your love
i can't accept
i can't take it
because
i know that i
am not
worthy
of it
please 
teach me 
to be willing
i need it
even if 
beyond my understanding
break me
please

it takes two to seesaw


What in the world 
do you want from me?
To speak softly
some sort of words
that are soothing
like a melody?
I refuse to feed you
these requested booze
because you will 
become drunk
on my forgery.
A sweet melody
is not
how it should be
Because if I sugar coat
my words
you'll just become
spiritually obese
and if I love you
and
I'm pretty sure I do
then that is something
I do not want for you.
or even from you.
They say to speak 
the truth 
in love
but they still don't wanna hear it
truth is truth
no matter how you say it
and yeah it's hard to hear
about how much we suck
at times
but we need to hear
those words that we fear
they make us scared 
because we don't want to 
face up to it
and
you my friends
are my only mirror
to how I speak socially
and the only ones
who can save me from me
so give it to me straight 
and
give it to me clean
because that's the only way
that I wanna hear it
and the only way
that I can 
Respect it
I need it from you
daily and Weekly
to put me in my place
so I may make you
my temporary enemy
and yes I know
this manner of speaking
can make one quite lonely
at times
but it works beautifully
when done respectfully
equally
and please understand
this manner of speaking
is not just one of negativity
but also one of spiritual uplifting
yes
we need beat each other
to make us stronger
but we also need
that heavy artillery
of words that bring
the thought of us
as comforting
and 
yes I know
that this is a seesaw act
and 
it takes two 
to play that game
while one is up
the other is down
and so it goes
again
back and forth
but it takes the balance
of 
love and respect
to bring
the other back up again
And I pray
OH GOD I pray
that there is someone out there
who understands
this
seesaw meaning
and that you 
would be a friend to me
