3am
I can't sleep

there's a man with a key to my house
I'll let these bullets fly
Seven birds in the sky
Flying South

I can't sleep

'cause you're cuddled up
And you don't a ****
what I see

I can't sleep.

I lay in my bed
With this gun to my head
I can't speak
Up

I'm up.

Alone in the night
With a black burning bright
In my teeth

I. Can't. Sleep.

I'm back in the house
quiet like a mouse
I hear you breathe

I can't sleep - I can't hear myself think
I can feel myself right on the brink
Something most people wouldn't believe
Of me

At your door with my gun
Seven Shots
Could you run?

I don't think
I don't blink
I just sink

This lead through your head
Through the floor and your bed
Through the wall and you fall
After all of it all

Hush, Baby
Now go to sleep

So much for that year long lease
Go to sleep
This **** ain't gonna cut it

The time has come for the chidren of Israel to awaken
We are living in the written times of the End

Though I may not know where this life will lead me,
I know that Allah has a place for me in Her kingdom

Wake up, children of Israel.
You ought to know where you come from

Few people in the world can make me smile
Even if she hasn't' been around for a while
She can always bring me back to the time

That we had that little fling
It was such a little thing

But it reminds me that I can be loved

Especially when no one shows it

I'll Ask 21 questions
But I only want answers to the important ones
She even wears the same perfume as all those years back...

I like to drink wine.

This was discovered only a couple of weeks ago.
Wine gives me the drive to do what I know I need to do.

Whether it be for myself, or for those around me.
In the case of tonight, it's for myself.

I've had two and a half glasses of a cheap Cabernet
but the way it makes me feel give me the motivation to see another day

I just want to sleep, wake up, and do what it takes to make my life easier. And if that means waking up at 7am to work a job that people look down on then **** it. I'm in.

Let's go, **** it

This wine has taught me that even though I may feel as if I'm struggling in the current moment; I'm just going to sleep and wake up to see a new day. A day given to me by a God that knows my ins and outs. My ups and downs. My weaknesses and my strong points.

I'm on this planet for a reason unbeknownst to me

Maybe there is no reason.

But I know that I'm going to enjoy it to the fullest.

And keep my eye on The Prize

That Prize being a woman that loves me.
A woman that loves everything about me.


The way I love so many women at this current state in my life.
Vendange is one hell of a drug

We're all connected
one way or another

But certain people give off a sort of glow
A wavelength

A Vibe

A vibe that either brings us together
                                                        ­                         or drives us apart


Your vibe grows radiant when you speak from your heart
It gives off that Afro-Cuban kind of funk

That smooth bass line that could either put a man to sleep
Or keep him up all night long
I prefer the latter
Aharon El Sep 2015
I've been told that the Devil is a liar.
It's days like today that help me understand that that couldn't be any less than true.

His influences will hit you like a ton of bricks

His ways take hold of you like the Jaws of Life

But once you realize that your fear, anxiety, and discomfort all come from the Snake

It's easy to grasp on to the fact that the Lord is by your side.

All it takes is a little prayer.

"Faith the size of a mustard seed"

*That's what my momma taught me
Aharon El Jan 2014
The thought of you next to me jolts me awake
I look left and you're not there
My heart skips
*Because it felt so real
It's cold in my room...
