#oneLife2Live

I’ve lost both of my parents. I’m 37 and I live in an empty nest. Most nights I dine with my thoughts, cuddled up and comfy with solitude. Silence keeps me warm. Regret keeps me busy.

Some people don’t really understand the significance of time. More than money or any other materialistic thing, its what I wish I had more of.

We take advantage of the notion of tomorrow, not really accepting the fact that it might not show up. We spend so much of our moments chasing fantasies and worrying about the things we can’t control.

By focusing on who I’d disappoint, I sacrificed my own happiness, spending many years of my life living for other people. Who I was, was lost. My vision was unclear. I sit in silence thinking of how many opportunities I was gifted to experience life, wishing I could go back in time. To the moment when…

All she wanted to do was love me.

We learn our ABCs; we don’t learn how to be happy. Boy and Girls today’s lesson: How to people please. We are raised to be drones, programmed to live for our family, religion and society. We live in a space where people seldom ask, “Are you truly happy?”

My advice to you:

Don’t wait until it’s too late
Cherish those you love
Treasure those who love you
Live your life for you
Do what you love
Be who you want to be
NOW is all we have

Until we meet again,

#RightNow

People tend to take advantage of the misconception that we always have more time. We wait to do things. We procrastinate. We put our happiness on hold. We put our desires on the back burner and we often leave them there. We accomplish milestones in our lives and tell ourselves that we’ll celebrate later. I used to be a victim of “later” but the more I learned to love myself, the more I understood that I deserved to live and love now. If not right now, when?

Jaded

The residue of the reflection of you absent of hue Lifeless The suns shines a little brighter since you’ve been gone When I recall your tone, I’m remember why I’d rather be alone When the Moon dictates the sky line my bones shake chills my feet grow cold That’s why they make blankets I should’ve known then as I know now I would’ve spent more time sipping wine, enjoying the moments as I unwind listening to jazz I should’ve got more ass…sets Saving my dimes and my mind Years of fear the time wasted But what can I say I was jaded Hiding behind rose colored glasses I hated I waited so long to leave You didn’t add to me Only my age increased I thought it was love but it was a disease An ailment that plagued my Soul I thought I was full An illusion I was empty I’ve come to my senses I’m different Stronger more realistic than I used to be You named my motives selfish for Loving me more than I did you Sipping wine unwinding in my moments in time listening to jazz getting more ass Glad our time has passed.

Boundless

“I fell in love with you while you were sleeping. Your story was written on my heart. Somehow when I looked into your eyes, I knew I loved you from the start. I don’t speak of when I first observed you. The time I dictate begins when the world was made anew. It was back when space was first created, when I remembered that I would always love you. A time when the earth took its first breath. A time when the moon decided it would glow. The passion I feel for you is so deep, it grows to boundless limits, even while you sleep. To what degree you’ve touched my soul? The world may never know.”

Until we meet again my love,

The hunted…

The seeker couldn’t seek her until she sought herself. He couldn’t be seen until he saw himself ~ The love within discovered them.

 

Captivating

Leaping bounds, skipping lifetimes. That Malcolm & Betty kind of fidelity. Surpassing the passion that produces the soothing sounds of Coltrane whispering so sweetly. Brotha, you have me imagining. ‘Evidence of sexual cerebral desires drip from my skin. My finger tips tingle wanting to caress the remnants of him. I squirm and arch my back as his nectar blesses the tip of my tongue.’ My psyche’s vibrating. In my thoughts, I’ve cum. That wet dream kind of ecstasy. Our version of meant to be, defies gravity. That Ausar and Auset kind of adulation, that your breath created me kind of appreciation, that this could be nothing but the Creator kind of inclination. Tapping my foot to your rhythm as I dance in the wind, twirling on the tips of my toes, you lift me with your peace. Breaking through the space and time continuum, it has me caught up in the Matrix, that I don’t wanna wake up kind of infatuation. That baby right there, please don’t stop kind of situation. Caressing me, my soul’s levitating kind of admiration. Your existence speaks to me ceasingly. Until the tick tock on the clock stops captivate me, love me internally and without hesitation I’ll cherish you infinitely.

Beautiful Shit…

Picture this…you’re walking through a gate that leads to a backyard. There’s gorgeous people partying everywhere!! You see a gleaming olympic sized pool, a bubbly jacuzzi, a basketball court and then a quaint little guesthouse. You step into the guesthouse which is completely furnished, the queen sized bed folds into the wall, the pool tables calling your name but comfy looking couches with nice looking ladies are calling you too, wink wink. The aroma of homecooked food is tantalizing and teasing your tastebuds. As you veer to the left of the kitchen, there’s a bookshelf. Now STOP!!

This is the bookshelf that changed my life!

The bookshelf is a door that gives access to the underground hideaway cave in the guesthouse!! The book shelf opens and leads you down some stairs, these stairs guide you to the secret lear, now turning to the right you see 8-10 theatre seats, a big ass scene TV in the wall, a personal bathroom and temperature controlled wine cellar and a marble bar. I don’t know about you but when I see things like this, it makes question my life lol. I thought I was doing pretty well until yesterday.

Now, you may be thinking…what does this have to do with dating and relationships? Well if you shushhhh, quit asking me questions and relax, I’ll tell you. Although I had a blast with my friends at this party yesterday, last night I went to bed kind of pissed. Not at anyone else but at myself.

See, people say it’s good to have a heart like mine, sweet, loving and kind but when you go through life always giving, if you allow yourself to be with people who don’t give back and you don’t give to yourself, you wind up empty.

Last night I thought of all the time I’ve wasted feeding into individuals who didn’t deserve to be with me when I could’ve been happily building an empire with someone who was worthy. I was too busy not seeing ME and instead seeing this illusion of potentiality within them that they didn’t even see.

At times we see others for who we want them to be and not for who they are and it’s detrimental to us because it’s not real. If you see a pile of shit, even if there are flowers growing out of it, it’s still shit and no matter how much the flowers may distract you, you have to see it for what it is. It’s the same with people.

Don’t waste your life away putting yourself, your heart and your desires on the backburner. Recognize your worth and wait for someone who deserves you. Accept the fact that you aren’t responsible for changing people. They might change in the future but for right now, they are who they are. Take the time to get to know people before you seriously commit. Ask yourself, if they never change and they stay the same, would you want to continue dealing with them? If not, see it for what it is – Beautiful Shit!!! And move the fuck around Clown lol.

Until we meet again my sweets,
