When in the midst of confusion,
Should you listen to what your mind thinks,                    
Or follow what your heart feels?
I am delighted, for the color of my skin.  I ignore those who hold a grudge, from deep within.
I am delighted, of the way I talk.  Even though you don't agree, it's certainly not my fault.  
I am delighted, of the way I move.  You feel you are the only one, who has a walk that cool.
I am delighted, of the way I look.  No need to stare at me, as if I am a crook.
I am delighted, of the peaceful life I live.  I truly love the Lord, he makes my life so real.
By, Sandra Juanita Nailing
you bring out the best in me.
and i will forever be grateful

i know i'm not supposed to want you
but i do
if only i had been there sooner
maybe you
would want me too
because most high school love
is circumstantial
and i don't think
she's any better

What is Life? How do we determine what it is? How do we feel? How do we taste? Why do we live? Why do we die? What is our purpose? Who knows the answer? All these questions, yet it seems so obvious or simplistic to some, where as others it is all blurry as fog. Is religion right? Or is their nothing out their. I found my answer, how about you?
It is my legs
My shopping bag
my companion
My float,
The two oars
My extended arms
Parting the water
In my little rowing boat.
We get there eventually
There are complaints on the way
But we ignore those and soldier on
Loweing the drawbridge in the moat.
Tricky I grant you, in your best frock
No man to help, just me, and my pal.
Keep calm, our motto, or we do rock.
Frothy waters jet up our way
Every now and then
It is like the rivers lets rip
Pulls out its cork to say "when"
Turbulance, oh yes, it is a scary time
The boat behaves like it's on the Irish Sea
Stiff talkings to and patience then it is fine.
We sail to the bank oh its a stone throw away
We disembark like a liner on the ocean
I tie it up to the nearest tree
Walk off through the wood in time for tea.
Piling the two carrier bags on board
It is chocs away into the moat
Back to the castle we go, my home,
To rest, me and my little rowing boat.

April
Anxiety ridden
everything
the ground
the exterior
shakes
and I'm standing alone

extending my arms
grasping for something
if only to keep me from falling
all my fingers find
is the chill of the air
sweeping the wind

and that I know
is the feeling of solitude
a great reminder
I have to do this on my own
no one can feel the anxiety I have, so essentially I have to do it all alone.
