One and the same
I know a man that is so in love with this woman that he would do anything for her. He would take all of the BS that she throws at him, listen to and believe all of her lies just to keep the peace and still want her after another man has planted his seed inside of her. I know a man that is so enthralled by this woman that he runs to the phone when he knows it’s her calling and he calls her 50...

My inspiration for this piece comes from a line I read in Maya Angelou’s book entitled, Letter To My Daughter. Words that seem so simple yet they carry so much weight and mean so much.
“You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them.”
I’ve spent years being angry at life for the hand that I have been dealt....
“I’ve learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life...”

A Cry For Help
HELP!! PLEASE HELP ME!!
Over and over the voice cries out in my head. I want to say the words out loud but my mouth just won’t move. I’m stuck. Frozen. Numb. Paralyzed with fear. Steeling myself for the next blow that I just know is coming. Is anyone coming to rescue me? How come nobody can hear the desperate cries for help that are filling my head right now? Will anybody come to save...
A Love Like...
I want a love like me
Thinking of you
Thinking of me
Thinking of you type of love.
Can’t eat, can’t sleep without my baby type of love.
I want the rose petals on the bed, bubbles in my bath water, kisses on my forehead type of love.
I want the random “I love you,” “I miss you,” “Babe I’m thinking of you” text messages throughout the day...
A Shot In The Dark
Hindsight is 20/20. Oftentimes it is difficult to step outside of ourselves and view the situation that we are in objectively. It is so much easier to give advice than to take it yourself. We tend to become so engrossed, so blinded by the objects of our desire that we forget to look at the bigger picture. Many times we are left asking the ominous question: “What happens now?”
It is human nature...

The Elephant In The Room...
Have you ever walked into a room and everyone stopped talking and stared at you? Or worse, the conversation in the room came to a halt and then people began whispering to each other and glancing at you all the while? Meanwhile, you’re still standing there, wondering what the hell everyone is saying about you. You check your hair, your clothes, your breath…everything seems to be in...
I Heart You...
I remember playing with my dolls when I was a little girl…I had a barbie doll and I would pretend that one of my teddy bears was her boyfriend. I used to make them go on dates and they eventually got married and had babies…it was a fairy tale that even as a little girl I always hoped would be my reality someday.
But then I grew up. We all do. We come to realize that Cinderella had...
