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

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.

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'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

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

Let's go to the beach tonight
Yeah, now.
Why not?

Let's walk along the coast and hold hands
Let's giggle on the shore and play in the sand

Let's forget about what's waiting for us at home
Just you and I, in the dark.

*alone

He starts the day with black coffee and a cigarette
He's on the ground, but that not where his head is at
He writes a poem in his room, on his bed
A memory foam pillow greets his weary head

He types his heart out with every single letter
Ingests chemicals that give him a full header

Inspiration comes from a black bird that he saw
Circling his house with a mouse in his claw

Vultures do what they have to to survive
Just like any man would to do stay alive

The bird swoops down and takes what's his with no question
It's heart beats faster with a geometric progression

A man must do the same if he wants to get what's his
Especially in the time in which we live

He has to be ruthless and swift
And take his own like a gift

The unsuspecting mouse never really stood a chance
And the man must take his opportunity at first glance
