You really can't complain for the way your life is at this moment knowing there's a solution to everything.I don't believe we're ever confused about what's holding us back, what we need to change about ourselves. I believe we all know what that particular problem is and we're either too hesitant/ashamed to face it or... Continue Reading →
Where I’m At Right Now (Monologue) – Day 308, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Open mics,And,Solo dinner dates have filled my schedule more often than taking the time to take care of myself the way God wants me to.Delayed blog posts are the result,As well as poems written by eighty percent of my true potential.I can't seem to figure out why,As my nights become longer,And,My days shorter.Is it time...

Lost Puzzle Pieces – Day 293, never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Letting go is the part hardest,For someone who's assimilated into darkness.For someone who can only smile while they can't see anything ,Besides the oil they squeeze out onto parchment.Besides a glass glimmering upon their thousand mile stare,Caused by friends,And,Family they're left departed...With a heart hardened by fear they've been engulfed by,How is letting go ever...

Music For The Sober – Day 242, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Everything else is better than sex,Drugs,Alcohol,Whatever gets you high for that matter.Back when they were all I thought about,My reality had shattered.Anytime I looked into a mirror,I was cracked further away from repair,Every second I stared into a man I believed wasn't there,Any longer...Anytime I hear glasses cling,As a sober man nowadays,It's music to my...

Smell Of Fresh Soil – Day 225, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Fresh mulch permeates the air,As new seeds are planted into a mind,Where ideas are desperate to germinate.Staying stuck in the weeds is no longer suitable for a soul thirsty to feel something new.Something besides dry humor,And,A plate of burgers along french fries while watching whatever the algorithm decides to feed it that night.No more city...

Holding Hands With A Ghost – Day 120, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Blood,And,Wet lips full of sugar?Are immiscible without an emulsifier found in,Tears trickling down your cheeks while laying down,Dead inside,Confounded.Puzzled by a con you've found in a pit of darkness.Love,Vampiric in nature is nothing,But,A spectral sending chills through your bleeding vessel with each touch,As subtle as it is.Once it's unbuckled from a kiss,You're left panting,Exasperated by...

Tunes Of Thunder – Day 78, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz (In Progress)
God's thunder serenades my mind,When I'm consumed by the Darkness of night.As the eye of the storm settles in,A pen is what I peddle back and forth on a blank page mirroring my eyes,As I look into each cloud swarming in… After all,The rain is music to my ears.Sounds like my fingers tapping on a...

Cake Crumbs – Day 66, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Crumbs.At least,Mine are bigger than what birds tend to eat.Being angry is a choice,But,It's a choice I don't have to make while I still have the blessing to breathe.And,It's not all about perspective.It's about,Acknowledging what I have in front of what I invest in,The plate feeding into a character with ego making a mess of,A...

Amara’s Light
Love.What does love become in a world where Good and Evil have switched sides?In a world where,It's light blinds,Revealing every path you shouldn't take?Concealing every blessing in your hands,As darkness illuminates your hidden pain… Love.Just,Why do I push it back into its resting place?When all I want is for Love to come my way… Seems...

Who Am I To Ever Love?
You know,I accept it.That I'm not worthy of love from another.I don't even care,I just,Want to play a video game without feeling guilty.Want to take a walk through a garden without past demons trying to fill me with doubt.I just,Want to look into my mirror and be fine with what's there,Entirely.Not just one or two...
