The Perfectionist Life Story

Waking up in my cradle seeing my mother beautiful eyes

Telling me I was her blessing, her newborn child

Saying I was too good to be true so….perfect

Remembering that from walking on my two feet

I would pick the pen and start to discover my talents

Making my first masterpiece of poetry as an infant

An underground poet laur

My Downfall

Here I envisioned my downfall of a poet as here where it starts

As I can see myself in complete stress and lay my pen down

Let myself roam the streets and let the world burned before me

Yet I try not to look like I victimized by my thought

Bring in the Hatred

Bring in the hatred ok self! As I can see in your eyes

But let me ask you a question why do you hate me?

Is it because I show kindness and beloved by many

Complex!

Angel wings on my back with a halo on my head

But demons in my eyes, seeing darkness all around me

My thoughts are expectations of a scholar, highly intelligent

But yet I felt so out of place, used for purposes of selfishness

A poem on today's thoughts

You never hear

the words I speak

as if your ear

has sprung a leak.

I turn away

frustrated, still

another day

won't break my will.

It isn't easy, it's Beautiful.

Every new day gives us the opportunity to fix the lens. Resetting the focus can expose how faux grins and dependencies compose your reality.

I remember making my mother laugh before I understood why. Riding to the doctor she would tell me how one day I'd take care of her. Everyday I think of how differently the world would surround me if she was still here. But, being 24, I can't question the plan. I can only help myself and learn to love the energy I've been given to live w

A Better Life!!! (The boy under the table) short story.

A short story I wrote last year. Category: Writing and Poetry Before I post the story below, I must say this. I have never been to India, and for the city names, I went to google earth. So please forgive, if the cities are nothing like these places. All of my friends love this story. It might need some work on continuity as well. But I hope you enjoy. A better life. (The boy under the table).... .. .. A long time ago in a far away land there lived a small boy who was born of a simple family… Continue

Update on a quarterlifer...

I've lost sight of myself somewhere along the way and I don't know when or how? How did I get to this point; to have come so far and yet not far at all- like I'm traveling in circles.

While

Young-ins

Looking to the skies again is relaxing. They are always dependable except on cloudy day's. Trying to engender the youth is always difficult. I had a slight argument with my niece who is a freshman in HS about Trey Songz spelling his name with z and how it leads to bad thought in perception when it comes to African Americans. We understand that this is the way people talk when they text. It Annoys me when think that black people speak this way and general and use it as a point of argument. All in… Continue

An Appreciation for Forgotten America...

So, for those of you who don't know, one of my favorite things to do is driving around on random back roads. A pastime that had until recent been on the back-burner (because of outrageous gas prices); this is when I take the time to really think and focus on my surroundings. Today, although not a pretty day by any standard, I found myself traversing the tertiary roads to which I have grown accustomed throughout

Back to the Drawing Board

It is not helpful to associate a lack of success with failure, necessarily. Hopefully there was something to learn and that knowledge will be retained. It's ridiculous how long that took to talk about. Now everything's on the table and it's as though a weight has been lifted. Even if I'm not entirely proud of how I handled it. Now I'm ready for spring, and all the opportunities it represents. In hope, M Continue

Green with envy...

I honestly believe that the greatest human tragedy is to be found in always wanting what we do not have. The logic being, that the "grass is always greener" so to speak. We as a society get so caught up in this game of jealous pride, that we begrudge other people for things that they may have. A certain amount of resentment is born out of the desire to possess what we do not or cannot have, and sometimes causes
