Seasons

-
the days keep on passing 
the leaves all begin to change 
you feel like you should feel different 
yet you feel just the same 

everybody's living 
everybody's fine 
everybody smiles 
and everybody lies

they all say they wanna help you
they all say they wanna be there
they all say just ask
anytime, anywhere

you do what you can 
you never give up 
your head stays full of what ifs 
your hands remain cuffed 

life moves forward
life stands still
life moves backwards
you gotta realize its a journey uphill

one day your time will come 
you'll rise above them all 
keep your head held high 
they all wanna see you fall

MOMMY! I picked you a flower.” Candy chosen with care - ensuring all her favorites are there. Don’t forget the almond joys. Handmade construction paper cards with painted handprints titled “I love you, Mom!” Family get togethers with a plethora of food, laughter, story telling, and memories. Breakfast-in-Bed made by the little tiny humans, hair still stuck up from waking up out of bed without bothering to brush their teeth - or their cowlick. It is a beautiful thing to witness - a family. A real one. An unbroken one. A bond like no other. It is also a feeling I have craved since before a time I can recall memories. It is the reason for so many years I have woken up angry, and bitt...

  I wish I could answer all of the questions  that you've laid in front of me yet in all we know there's a disconnect with what is remembered and what is shown from back in '92 throughtout the trials and the tribulations we all find ourselves asking and begging for the answer  We know  what we know but has it ever been enough? We know  what we know and it's assured that we've always been loved. <3

This One's For You

There are often times I get praised for the way I handle life's back-to-back to back hits and while my answer tends to throw people off with my honesty- and transparency- it's genuinely the truth: I'm accustomed to it- and I have been my entire life. I am accustomed to the chaos, and what comes with it. I am accustomed to the loneliness of losing, and having to heal. I am accustomed to being broken, and having to pick up the pieces to recreate myself as a mosaic. I am accustomed to heartache, the grief, the defeat, the pain, the stress, and having to mask it in order to succeed. What I was not accustomed to, or ever thought I'd have to learn, is learning to love again after losing. Learning to trust, not to simply fill a void and create a short-term bond. Learning that I am worthy, even when I feel as if I am not. And learning that in order to love again? You need to understand that not everyone will understand. I had a co-worker say something to me this last week: “You...
