Here I come

I’ve made a decision that many are not fond of.
In all honesty I’ve never cared about anyone who thought or thinks anything of me. 
I’m still my own persona and I will continue to strive for more then what my expectations are.
If I shall fall short…… 
Well lets just say when you aim for the moon, I'll still end up on a star.
How many have dreams about there future?  How and what they expect it to be? How many act on there dreams?  Plan it out sketch a business plan surrounding there ideas and establish some credibility to make it possible.. 
Unlike others who can only see there dreams with there eyes closed, I refuse to love my dreams more then life, I'm just not cut out to be a dreamer.
My dreams become reality not actuality, and I strive to be and go where everyone is scared to be…
 I run with the freedom of knowing, I’m that much closer to self fulfilling my own indulgence… 
How many can really truly say that of themselves? 
I know at times I may fall off the curve, I may get way too ahead of myself, drive with out  breaks, but, I know myself well enough to fall and pick myself back up.. 
I run sometimes before walking but that’s only because I’ve crawled, walked and now I run… 
I enjoy hearing peoples concerns I’m even okay with seeing there negativity try to stray me away… 
However, even though it should push me more, it saddens me to see how frightened people are to make there dreams reality and tangible… 
It’s amazing to finally make a dream tangible, it feels so untouchable, it’s an extraordinary feeling that everyone should experience.
Walking through all odds and knowing I’m going to fall, knowing it’s a long road ahead, I find my way threw my eyes and my eyes only… 
And you know what??? I’m happy with that… If I’m not scared of this freedom, no one should be scared for me… 

I will crawl, walk and run again, and your permission isn't needed, but your support will be thoughtfully appreciated.

Wild Orchid

The simplest unpredictable gift was given to me and I failed to notice,

I felt so blind,

To over see something so big in detail, yet so small in size, but so full of life,

I was so unkind.

My dad had always provided me with more than just necessities in our life,

He has always been simple,

He never had to go out of his way to make me smile, presence was a present,

One could imagine.

As I got older, seemed as if gifts didn’t exist maybe on a holiday or a birthday,

But that was it.

Never have I minded, it is a part of growing up with out realizing I wasn’t his little girl anymore,

until one day.

A few months back while playing beer pong, and quarters with my pops he brought me something,

A flower?

Ha, my Dad and a flower, too funny not so cute, but I kept it with out realizing her worth,

I was so blind.

I finally killed it today; it accompanied me from California to Las Vegas and died here,

I was so unkind.

Chevelle smacked it out of the vase, chewed the stem off and ravished the flowers to death,

She made dying simple.

My dad told me it didn’t need to be watered much, nor taken care of, it would live on its own,

I imagined it would die with me, quickly.

To my surprise I had it longer than I thought I would, I never cared for flowers, but now I do,

Because that was it, it’s gone.

I didn’t realize I had a piece of my Dad here, a piece that made me laugh when I still saw it alive,

My damn Dad gave me a flower,

Not a beer, not a shot, not a game of beer pong or running the table on a game of pool, a flower,

I have a Harley, 2008 Deluxe slammed on air ride; kept to original disguise, chromed out, true duel vance and hines exhaust,

And he gave me a flower.

I guess I’m not as rough when I care about a simple flower, why am I over worked on this idea?

A flower.

I guess I didn’t realize he took his time finding this flower, finding something just like me,

You don’t have to take care of it,

But yet it will stay alive,

You can miss treat it and not water it often,

And it’ll still blooms,

You may not pay attention to it often,

But it’s still there,

And when you try to destroy it, you can’t it’ll still be alive,

And when you finally realize what you had,

It’s gone.

I’m sorry Daddy, I didn’t think of it until now, if it’s any consolation, I placed it in a different vase, and finally watered it, cut the dead stems off but it still has it’s wings, well leaves but I’m going to try to care this time, even if it’s too late.

Guilty Heart

Can you hear the rain drops falling on the roof. Staring at what you made into a shadow in the dark, you drift while your mind is awake and your body falling into a trance of a spell bound dream.

Some people dance like no one is watching,

Some people sing like no one is listening,

Some people love like it never hurt before,

Can you hear the storm getting closer, the sound of the thunder has come closer to the door, and close to home. You hide so silent and still sheltered in the blankets you stay, hoping for a dream.

Wiseman said what hurts the most is pain,

Wiseman said you’ll know love when you die,

Wiseman said see the obvious not the lie,

Wiseman said act a fool you'll be a fool,

Can you hear the invisible footsteps your mind is making you hear? The silent nights never felt so loud. Your thoughts never kept your mind awake while trying to sleep. How sad it is when you become your guilt..

You smile as if you don’t even know what your lie is.. You grin in the day and cry your eyes at night.. You know deep in your heart they deserve better than you and your lies, but you're compelled to believe you can change.. But change seems so far away when your eyes hide your pain and you can’t cope with who you are.. Change seems so far away when you can’t change your lies because they’ve become you and your lies are you, you are all you made yourself to be.. Don’t cry just pray karma doesn’t turn your corner, you're not strong enough to handle it, and I’ll pray for your happiness..

Trigger

Time changes and another day is born,

Night falls and another star is seen,

The dawn breaks light and a horizon is drawn,

The moon shines and the season is over….

Days into dark,

Moons roll,

Seasons fall,

Time fades,

And a Story is told….

I’ve contemplated a trigger,

I’ve contemplated a stare,

I’ve contemplated my life,

I’ve contemplated yours…

Seconds sound off the minute,

Minutes fade the hour,

Hours pass the dial,

And another day is gone….

The day I’ve waited to see my whole life,

Was a glimpse of a minute too soon too slow,

The time when reality was finally better than my dreams,

And the time I realized my dream has become reality,

And I stayed in the seasons of being nothing…..

Scheming

I’ve always maintained my composure no matter what situation may rise.

I wanted to know the feeling of running with the wreck less emotion of not scheming my heart.

I know now what it is to wake by your side and I know now what I don’t want to be without.

I can’t explain how much I love being with you and knowing you exist for me.

I asked GOD for you without you realizing, and without realizing you really existed.

I can’t change what I feel, and I can’t change what others would love to change.

You’re here with me now, I’ve found my place in your arms and in your eyes.

I tell you I love you because it’s the closes way to let you know how I feel, I tell you I miss you when I’m in your arms because I know I just can’t stay there forever.

And when I leave, that kiss always feels like it might be the last so I make sure you can hear my heart skip every time you're near.

I don’t know what tomorrow brings but I can only imagine it will bring me another day. Another day so I can tell you I love you today, just as yesterday and just as the next day

When You Know Nothing At All

The depth of my mind may only be a figment of your imagination, a perplex impediment for those who set sail with Captain Morgan. But as everyone has their desires, contradict me, and I’m game. I can likely figure you out within 5 minutes of having a conversation with you. I’m an obstruction in your mind, in ways leaving myself fascinated by the anomalous uncertainties that you can only find when your certain. Your thirst will be to figure me out, as my thirst is to quench my dehydration. Upon the entrance of my masquerade, you can uncover your façade for your mask cant hide lust. I’m genuine and would never betray the ones I love, I value my family for being humble and only seeing those who are real. My mind is constantly learning and I’m consistently challenged, I’ve LOVED, LOST, and LEARNED, the three things every soul can’t escape. I yearn to place a smile on your face, I crave for the ones that will give to me what I’ll give back. I don’t belong to anyone’s virus, satisfaction is found on my own, if you lust for what you see, you’ll desire what you know, but the possibilities are endless when you know nothing at all.

Cousin Mike

God placed a piece of heaven here on earth and blessed us with his laughter, and eternal memories that will forever grow in our hearts.

Although we weren’t ready to see his wings spread, we knew he was ready for his eternal life to begin.

Heaven couldn’t have blessed us more than to know him as a husband, a father an uncle a God father a friend, “My God Father” (our angel)

Forever his laughter will be heard, forever our hearts will beat with his, and if tears could build a stairway to heaven, we know we’ll be graced in his presence again.

In our heart we couldn’t have asked for more, than to know he once stood by our side.

And as they say; he’s that whisper in the wind, that imaginary friend, that shadow on the ground, and he’ll be until the end, for our hearts will be sure to carry him every step of the way.

Cousin

I took everyday for granted thinking there was always tomorrow,

never did I realize tomorrow was so close to being today.

And now I hold my heart in my hands as it’s never felt so heavy,

at times it feels as if I can’t breath, other time it feels as if I don’t want to breath.

I know deep in my heart you knew everyone’s heart went out to you

and you were heard in more prayers than you knew,

I wish you would have known you were in mine.

Thinking of yesterday and the days before that turned into years

today still seems so far away from you being gone.

How I wish I could have seen you once more,

hug you,

laugh with you

and just let you know how much I would miss you,

how many memories keep me laughing.

Now as tomorrow passed today sets in and I didn’t have that chance to tell you,

and through the gravity that holds us in this atmosphere

I hope you can hear my heart cry out to you,

tell you all that I never got the chance to say.

My fondest memories will always be locked in my heart

forever will I remember that waltz around the dance floor on that sunny day in June of 1995 on my Quincenera, you are my cousin and my god father and a friend I always had,

my heart will always be heavy as it pains to cry,

and unlike no other feeling

I will always remember that tomorrow could be so close to today,

I just wish I could have hugged you once more

and laugh with you once more,

I’ve always carried you in my heart and when you love someone they stay in your heart forever and forever you will be..

My Shepard

THE moon turned a half circle, if it wasn’t for the rain you would think June.

LORD knows how ignored the wind could be when deplored.

IS my time prime? Or was it just the sublime beauty of night? It was almost a crime.

MY heart had a part that was never art, I always wish she’d restart.

SHEPARD I played until betrayed, afraid and frayed I became, just like that spade.

I laid in my own charade, like I was inside an arcade I was strayed.

SHALL I close my eyes and hope to stay blind?

NOT unless I was done with the fight, and couldn’t write, but not this night.

WANT a font like Vermont?

HE knows you and I like a card, we have no guard.

MAKETH a promise just like Saint Thomas, and know your eyes tell no lies.

ME? I would rather be wise than despise what my eyes can’t baptize.

TO my dreams that deems all my screams, it was never a scheme.

LIE as I fly away

DOWN to a frown,

IN eyes of a clown,

GREEN or brown,

PASTURES wouldn’t drown

HE wouldn’t bare a crown

LEADETH me to a gown

ME in a ball gown,

BESIDE a ghost town

THE clown danced in a small town.

STILL I couldn’t see my feet on the ground, but it was that sound that was around.

WATERS couldn’t stand still, for me to kneel, I couldn’t feel my heart twas made of steel.

HE RESTORTH MY SOUL:

HE took my hand, he

LEADETH me in the paths of righteousness.

FOR his voice, was a choice, I made to rejoice in

HIS

NAMES sake.

YEA, THOUGH I WALK THROUGH THE VALLEY OF THE SHADOW OF DEATH,

I will fear no evil: for thou art with me.

Surely I will feel lost at times, and surely I will count and call on you.

Goodness to be where I don’t know where I’m going.

and to all my memories left behind, I shall not hurt if I must say good bye

mercy on their souls so our eternal life can begin.

shall I remember them in my dreams? Shall I know how it will feel to miss them?

follow me as this I know, I can’t take no more, be with

Me, as I am scared, all I ask is for you to explain why, because my eyes will stay behind and

The day will come again when I will remember.

days can’t take my yesterday and my yesterday was the time

of everything they wont forget.

my time was limited, my battles were never defeated, and I never knew why

Life couldn’t leave me alone, from all the pain I held in my hands, explain this to me

and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever."

So as I lay me down to sleep,

I give you my soul to keep,

If I shall die,

I give you my soul to take,

If I shall wake I pray my soul to accept what I can’t change,

But if I shall die before I wake,

I pray my soul to remember my child’s names, and my spirit to stay and hurt as they, to be away.

GOD I shall fear no evil I shall fear no pain but I want to see them grow, please don’t take me away…

Russian Roulette

Playing Russian roulette with the devils hand,

Dancing with him under the neon moon light,

A different face, a massacre, a ballet of rum,

An endeavourers hold, an immortal verse,

A stare of an unknown refection,

A bitter sweet surrender,

A dance to remember,

A night to forget,

A night to fall,

A night cry,

A night a

Knight,

Was,

Me.

Losing Control

Has everything ever moved so fast around you slowing down was never an option? Having everything in perspective was never an concern as it was a requirement, having everything set in place and prearranged, was nothing more then habit, and the circumference around you was never big enough for you not to look out of. Knowing, everything revolved around the power of your own words and knowing every thing that changed was at a velocity dawdling enough for you to grasp with out a grapple, and make the best from everything. A feeling you’re not too far away and you are the only person in control of your destiny and in control of everything around, to know what it is to call yourself intuitive.

Have you ever had to eradicate yourself out of reality and apprehend you’re not in control of the things that matter most? Everything you had worked for and everything that was in the palm of your hands is now improbable, and the circumference that never seemed to matter is the only sector your living your life through. I’ve always said I’d hit the ground running, however never anticipated I’d have to hit the ground because I knew where I had been and where I was going. Then to depend on people you never wanted to hold your hand. What a clout to the face to realize a lesson learned at such an age of endurance.

My reality was building an empire so high and secluded from anything that could make me fall. I built myself around dreams I wanted to make reality and it a moment of time I had my life in the palm of my hands and an illness came and swept me dry of everything I had going for myself. I let myself fall, drown, bleed and permitted myself to hate everything because I realized I fell short of the things that mattered the most.

My life was so perfect I was able to act like anything I wanted just to escape my work. Being untroubled, blithe and acting a fool was a laugh I needed to give myself because my mind was beyond obsessive by everything I wanted to be and revolutionize. I would see projects everywhere I went I couldn’t leave the house with out a pen and paper because my mind worked a million miles an hour and slowing down was never an option. And declining from my own magnitude and being able to escape my own mind at times would take me into a place I loved being. I was uninhibited, unperturbed, I would do what ever I wanted to do and never cared what people thought because I knew myself that well to know I had boundaries even though I didn’t want people to know. However those who knew me knew I had a bogus front, that I had an escape, and my life was so controlled by structure seeing a venture was only to clear my mind up and flee from my consumption. None the most,, I looked forward to those days I didn’t care because my life gradually started desecrating from my path and because for the first time I wasn’t in command.

Random Quotes

Perfect love casts out fear. Where there is love there are no demands, no expectations, no dependency. I do not demand that you make me happy; my happiness does not lay in you. If you were to leave me, I will not feel sorry for myself; I enjoy your company immensely, for the only thing I depend on is the comfort of your smile...

The best of conversations occur when there is no competition, no vanity, but a calm quiet interchange of sentiments

Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.

So go dance, as if no one is watching, Love, as if you never knew pain, and sing, as if no one is listening. And when you get a second chance hold on to it with both hands, because just like a balloon, one you let go, you’ll never see it again

People have so much to say but yet can’t stand their unidentifiable refection in the mirror. How do they know us but have no idea who they are?

We tend to think life is too short when we find happiness. But we waste so much time in between life’s too short and happiness, we get too caught up in the fairy-tale of dreaming, and when we least expect it… We're 30, never wait in never land

Don’t be scared to accomplish what your mind envisions, sometimes it’s easier to leave it behind as we do other thoughts. Sometimes we have the courage to try, other times we make excuses. Einstein was on to something when he said “imagination is more important then knowledge”

The best thing in life happens when you think you’re not worth anything. You actually wake up and start living for yourself.

No place to run

My heart beats on every page my pen touches,

And I can’t help but ponder why on paper,

I’ve given enough but with out words, it’s beyond lost,

I can’t begin to speak my heart, or where I am,

I trust through silence my writings speak loud,

Taking you where I find myself, and left myself.

I can’t control where my hand takes me,

But if I could say what I can write, you wouldn’t be far from me,

I guess I learned how to hide behind my words,

I don’t expect you to read everything I write,

But I always thought forgiveness is just a letter away,

I’m so far kept from feeling my emotions that I believed they didn’t exist.

When in reality they do, there're loud and speaking,

Words wind me to hear my own pain,

And I’m too stubborn to allow them to settle,

Looks like my heart is heavy and I ran out of words,

Maybe even time, my anger took the best from me,

And now I’m placing my heart on paper again.

I don’t have a place to run, I’m timid, you see me,

My guard is completely down along with my wings,

It’s your time to make your call, this is me, my fear,

And my time to realize how words hurt,

My heart is on paper but not far from you…
