Untitled VII

It’s funny because when I first had a clip of my multi-Epiphanies I was expecting it to deal with something completely different and trying to put everything together; but now I understand that the things that I wanted to see were probably “fed’ to my mind, and took over my thoughts to distract me from what I was really supposed to be focusing on.

Almost have it solved.

Unfinished thoughts

I’m Overflowing with ideas, yet I can’t sit still long enough to expand on it.

Fabricating the truth- You would never be looked at the same way again. You fabricated the truth to make me look bad or maybe it was so that you have something to discuss with him.

My major project- I have to start weeding them out. Everything looks too good on the outside, but it’s the inside that we need to worry about. So in that case it time to start weeding out the fakes.

At times- Sometimes I just feel like no one's on my side...like people are playing tricks on me and laughing that's exactly how it feels like they're trying to get a reaction out of me because it’s fun... and inside my heart is exploding. And I’m looking at them with these wide open eyes screaming things at them.

Talking in Circles -I talk in circles just to inspire people to think. It's like an unintentional social experiment. Just to see who's even worth my time...Most people aren't……but he is.

Memorized- I memorized your smirk, how many creases it takes to reach your cheeks --and that's the only thing--I’ll ever want to know of by heart.

A thousand - I could write a thousand blogs and they will all say the same thing. I could use a thousand words and it still wouldn’t be enough to describe what I’m trying to say. I could have a thousand chances to do something and I don’t think that it would change. If there were a thousand emotions I could feel they wouldn’t be different from one another. If there were a thousand poems I could choose from it would be the same one over and over. If there were a thousand songs I could listen to I would listen to the same one time and time again. If there were a thousand times I had to explain myself it still wouldn’t make sense.

Not the same- I’ll watch the night turn light blue (but it's not the same without you)...

A million people want you. Don’t forget me. Every day I find new places to take you.

About her- I'm pretty sure you're a compulsive liar.I warned myself about you, but I ignored it because I wanted to give you a chance. Your stories never match. It’s blatantly obvious. I don’t know what it is that makes you feel that you need to lie. You need help.

Knowledge- "Why do you underestimate my knowing?"
“Why do you underestimate it?” I could know just as much as you. "

I just don’t get it- We are too much alike……but never at the same time.

B.W.- I'm wreckless….You're beautiful and together we are beautifully wreckless.

My favorites :
John Legend- So we did it again, knowing we should quit it, but we simply won't admit it again. Oh it feels good, it's so good, but I won't do it again, it’s so dramatic again. After we go at it, we get mad then we go at it again. Oh I love it, then I hate it, she's my favorite again.”- Again

India. Arie- “I’ve been learning to live without you now, but I miss you sometimes. The more I know, the less I understand, and all the things I knew, I’m learning them again.” –The heart of the matter

Robin Thicke-“ You're the only one who knows what I go through Sometimes you even feel it more than me, baby And I don't know how I ever got by without u”- Angel

Ryan Leslie-“ over the others over my pride over the faults that I have in my life, I choose you, I choose you,”- I choose you

Adele- “I know you Haven't made your mind up yet, But I would never Do you wrong”- Make you feel my love

Amy Winehouse-“ When will we get the time to be just friends, It's never safe for us not even in the evening 'because I've been drinking- Not in the morning where your shit works, It's always dangerous when everybody's sleeping And I've been thinking …Can we be alone?”- Just Friends

Corrine Bailey Rae: “Still I wonder why it is I don't argue like this, With anyone but you, We do it all the time Blowing out my mind”-Like a star “Don’t want to lose you, don’t even own you”-Choux pastry heart

Trey Songz- “How do you fix a love undone, How you even know if you're fit to love someone And when you decide to take that ride, Can you drive from the passenger’s side”- Infidelity “Girl, we’ve had our share of ups and downs But you know that I’m gonna always be around that’s for sure sho And you know how we do, how I roll And remember aint a damn thing change so Holla if you need me You always gonna be my boo Holla if you need me You know I still got you And if you ever need me to be What you need girl, I’m free and forever you can holla at me” -Holla if your need me

Alicia Keys-“ By now I should know That in time things must change, So it shouldn't be so bad So why do I feel so sad. How can I adjust, To the way that things are going, It's killing me slowly.Oh I just want it to be how it used to be”- Why do I feel so sad

Jazmine Sullivan- “If a lie is going to get me through, I rather not know the truth. And if the truth is going t make me cry, I rather just live a lie.”- Live a lie

John Mayer-“ When you're dreaming with a broken heart Then waking up is the hardest part”- Dreaming with a broken heart

Musiq Soulchild- “It would be fly if you were my b.u.d.d.y.”, “I just want a part of your heart I could borrow sometimes”- Buddy

Whitney Houston-“Cause you love is my love, and my love is your love. It would take an eternity to break us and the chains of Amistad couldn’t hold us.” Your love is my love

Lauryn Hill-“Now the joy of my world is in Zion.” – To Zion “A lasting relationship, not based on ownership, I trust every part of you, because all that I... All that you say you do You love me despite myself, sometimes I fight myself, I just can't believe that you, would have anything to do, With someone so insecure, someone so immature. Oh you inspire me, to be the higher me” -I got to find peace of mind

Maxwell-“ Cause I go insane -Crazy sometimes, Trying you to keep you from losing your mind. Open your eyes, See what’s in front of your face -Save me my fistful of tears”- Fist full of tears “Baby when we get together it’s a overdose.” –Bad Habit

Bob Marley-“Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery; None but ourselves can free our minds. Have no fear for atomic energy, cause none of them can stop the time.”- Redemption song

Beyonce-“Every now and then with out warning I can be really mean towards you. I’m a puzzle yes indeed, ever complex in every way. All the pieces aren’t even in the box, and yet you still see the picture clear as day.”- Flaws and all

Maybe one day.

Maybe one day everything would be solved, and no lies would be need to be told to me.
Maybe one day we will all understand everything and have no more questions.
Maybe one day my epiphany will be told.
Maybe one day......
but as for now it is all I could hold on to.

5:17 am

"It's at night, when perhaps we should be dreaming, that the mind is most clear, that we are most able to hold all our life in the palm of our skull. I don't know if anyone has ever pointed out that great attraction of insomnia before, but it is so; the night seems to release a little more of our vast backward inheritance of instincts and feelings...." ~Brian W. Aldiss

Sleep where art thou?

The early mornings

The early mornings seem to be the time that I am in tune with myself. When the world stands still and it just leaves me time to think.

The early mornings seem to be the time that I could get everything that I am feeling out. The early mornings seem to be the time where there are no interruptions or lost thoughts.

It’s the early mornings that I let all that’s been bothering me for the day out, it’s the easiest time to talk.

There is just something about these early mornings.

Knowing that I should be asleep because I have class soon- it’s still a thrill just staying up and writing what has been on my mind. I feel as if my best writing has come to me in the early mornings.

It’s the early mornings where I sometimes get lost in my thoughts, and words.

The early mornings are 4, 5 and 6 am.

When the sun is not yet out and the sky is not yet blue- those are the early morning.

The early mornings eventually captivate my mind and make me release my words so easy.

"Another Again."

The first time we ever got a chance to be alone we knew
That is was something new,
I guess that's why I was drawn to you,
The 2nd time leads to the 3rd, the 5th, the 7th time,
We were in denial, thinking it would only be that one time,
I can’t believe that you got me hooked, Oh this can’t be good, oh,
Catching feelings and actually showing them, oh I know this isn’t good

And I'm doing it again;
Yes, I'm doing it again,
Oh, I'm doing it again,
I said it would end but here it goes again,

Now it’s been weeks and we are doing what we learned to do
Me coming over and over just to come and see you
I asked you how am I ever going to learn to put my trust in you

Like you want me to, 'cause I know what you're prone to do,

Rumors catch my ears just like music does, here it goes again, oh
But you know me because, that’s what they do
The cycle never ends, never ends

Oh, they're doing it again,

Yes, it makes me do it again,

Oh, I’m doing it again,

I said it would end but here it goes again,

and again, and again

Damn, I love you, but this is crazy,

I have to fight you almost weekly,

We break up so fast,

And we, we make up so passionately,

Why can't we just trust each?

You can't hate me and be my lover

Passion ends, and pains begins, I come back...

And we're doing it again,

Then, I'm doing it again,because,

they're doing it again,

I said it would end but here it goes again.

Each time we make up again, things feel so great

I say that things will change, And then we’re strong again
Then we flashback to the first time you put your spell on me,

You envelope me, you feel good as hell to me.

One moment leads to another few,
Here it goes again, oh, oh,
Leaving you is, oh, so hard to do,
I just can't pretend, can't pretend,

I keep doing it again,

Because, they're doing it again,

Yes, We're doing it again,

I said it would end, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah

Oh, I'm doing it again,I said it would end,

oh, oh, oh, oh,

Oh, We're doing it again,

I said it would end but we just can’t end

Again.

"It's easier to live like you don't see nothing, even though it ain't right......"

Shot to the heart.

I shed tears cause I'm told that the heal, to tell the truth I don't know how to feel, ever felt alone in room full of friends, got big plans but leave em in suspense, pray for me.....

Determined

Determined.

So don't underestimate me.

A year ago today

A year ago today I was on my way home from School for Columbus break. My mom picks me up from the ferry and tells me she had some bad news. I had lost someone so close to family that they we called each other cousins. Those were the last words that I expected to hear, because last I heard you where in rehab and doing better; though you still weren't able to speak-you still were making progress. In life we don't know why we lose people so young but I know that you left so that you wouldn't have to go through the pain anymore. It had been close to a year and you weren't able to speak to us, walk or even do the things you loved to do. Sometimes I think about how much I miss you but then I realize it's not as bad as how much your mother, and brothers miss you. Never once did I question God about why he took you from us, because I knew he had a better plan. I just always prayed that he helped your mom and brothers to understand and cope with the situation. Rest in Perfect Peace Ms. Oyindamola Tawio, you will forever be missed.

Recap of the weekend

So I'm on my way back to school from the city on the new Trailways and they have outlets and wifi which actually works out for me. I have alot of papers to write and articles to read so I could at least attempt to do them on the bus. The weekend was good. I had fun for the most part. Cultural night was good as well as the parade despite the rain. Poor Wale got attacked by all the groupies, though I didnt get to take a picture with him my dad introduced me to him and he gave me a cd and poster. Serani was also there, he is so calm and collected. I took a picture with both him and his bodyguard. Now for the remainder of Saturday night.That had to the be the worst night yet. The funny thing is that I had a feeling that I shouldn't go out but I did anyway. So first we mad a stop to club blvd. It was okay, then went to C-pac which was crazy before entering. There was alot of mix up at the door and it took a while for us to get. Eventually after my cousins arguing with the security guard we got in. I cracked my phone so I can't see anything. SMH, and everyone was texting me all night and even now. So when I get back to school I have to go back to that big blackberry..urrrrghg SMH but whatever right now. On top of everything I was in the middle of a dam shootout in Brooklyn on the way to Malcom X Blvd.Smh At C Pac the boys were getting crazy in there it must be something about my new hair style.lmao I saw so many people from high school and it was like a reunion; The night ended........well lets just say I don't argue with drunk fools even if they are family nor do I con don stupidity.

5:50 am

Be careful with who your surround yourself with.......even if they are FAMILY.

Seriously though.

Urrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh.

Sometimes you need to break down and breathe.

Nothing else matters.

She could dream it up, but reality is that it’s not what it seems.
This wasn’t just fooling the public;
it was more like fooling herself.
Maybe it will be worth it in the end…….

just maybe though--

so let’s not get our hopes up.

Pinky Promise

Those are the promises that should Never be broken.

Untitled VI

"Another Again."

Words from the heart to the anonymous eye catcher.

.But to you things would never go back to the way they once used to be. Everything that we had has faded away and we are left with the memories. All my letters, notes, and gifts will mean nothing anymore. All my feelings and thoughts count for nothing anymore. So why hold back everything thats it is in me, I guess I’m free to say it all because it wouldn’t matter to you anyway.

I saw all the flaws in you but I ignored it because the good overweighed it. I knew all the lies you told but I ignored it because I knew it wasn’t as much as you told to the rest. I knew when you were keeping things from me but I let it be because I thought you were just protecting me. I let you get away with so much because I felt there was no need to argue about certain things. But when my feelings for you became stronger I grew tired of the lies and all the flaws that I knew you could change. I guess deep down in me I subconsciously thought that I could change you, I'm not really sure.

I unintentionally let down my guard; shared my thoughts with you even though I might have been rambling along the way. It takes a lot for me to express what I’m feeling. I’m used to just keeping everything to myself. But I held too much in and it hurts now. I don’t know why I expected more from you, but I just did. The mind plays tricks but the heart remains the same. As much as we argued in the past, I still felt the same way for you, because I knew things were temporary and eventually would go back to the way it used to be. I don’t know what it was that kept me holding on to whatever wasn’t even there but I guess you were my comfort zone.

I was always there for you even in the early hours of the morning answering every instant message or text. Always there even when I was sleeping, I would wake up when I heard the sound just to be there for you with whatever you needed or just to talk. Whenever you needed something I would go out of my way for you so you could never say I didn’t care because I did my part and beyond. I never disrespected you, I gave you the most respect behind closed and open doors, but you would occasionally slip up and I always forgave you because I didn’t want little things being the reason we distance ourselves for each other.

Yes, I ignored you once in a while and I admit it was childish but it was only to get through to you. To let you know that I didn’t have to be there dealing with you shit because I wasn’t obligated to do so. Honestly, I was down for you like the economy. But you couldn’t see that or you just took it for granted. So now this is what we are left with. Nothing but memories and thoughts of one another.

You said you’re not giving up but there is just no point. But like you said it doesn’t matter anymore because I said what I had to say and now I have to live with it...

.If this world were mine.

.if this world were mine.

I would spend the night in your mind

making it so the thought of me would never leave you

you'd toss and turn all through the night, feeling around hoping to find-

-me, praying I would never leave you.

.i would give you the flowers, the birds and the bees.

no baby I would give you all of me

open you up to a feeling of pure satisfaction

making you the director of this film

no lights, maybe a camera, just action

I would open all the secrets you hide

and face your fears with you

complete the things within you as I’m supposed to

.I would place at your feet, all that I own.

you've been so good to me.

take me love, to the places of your fantasy

let me fulfill them and give you ecstasy

treat you like no woman has ever done before

give you just enough, so you'd always want more

let you know that your body isn't the only thing I enjoy

but your mind is what makes takes me to the edge

takes me on that high where I’m searching for a hit, another taste

but tonight my goal is to do for you as you do to me and take you to that place

all thoughts and ponders are reality

our thoughts and ponders are reality

I would have my way with you after you've had your way with me

reaching that place time and time again

without even touching

doing this all night

.….

if this world were mine......

i'd spend the night in your mind.

--with Luther Vandross excerpts

Perfect lyrics

Holla if you need me-Trey Songz

Still awake so I shall write.

And so it's 2:46am && I'm still awake unable to sleep for whatever reason. Monday was the first day of classes it was okay....I guess. Didn't really see much people yet but for the people who I did see......HMMM! I have no feeling for this semester just yet because it's just the beginning but I guess the weekend will tell. I think it is just funny how summer comes you miss everything and everyone and then we are back to school and you just start to be reminded about the S#%T that bothers you...smh, but whatever! A lot of people have just been frustrating me already which is kind of sad, being that we haven't even been back a week yet.

On the other hand I have a single now, which is good because I could escape everyone whenever I want- though they do still try to come bother me....I just ignore the door[evil face]; but I do miss you as a roommate Rachel.....

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT.......

I SEE SOMEONE CREEPING...HEADING SOUTH WEST OF CAMPUS.

But honestly, I just feel as if I wasn't prepared to come back. I didn't shop for school at all this summer. Smh at me for slacking on my addiction, but I will do some online shopping in the morning :-) .

Well I shall try to go to sleep for real this time.

Last day

…..and at the end of my last day

“Your face would be the reason I smile.”

There must be something about you because for the past 3 years
your always the last person I see on
my last day
<3

Random thought.

"And I know it kills you inside to know that I am happy with some other guy"

:-)

OVERDOSE

No one knows about OVERDOSE.
It’s a secret.

Honestly, I’m purely attracted to him && much more.

I convinced myself early on

that he was slightly unattainable

[but it was a challenge that I was willing to take]

everyone wants what they think they can’t have

…maybe it’s the forbidden fruit theory?

I don’t know.

If you were to ask me I would say that

I really don’t like him and at the moment

I don’t but just like any other drug..

You want to chase that high you achieved the first time,

which would require a

larger and stronger

dosage until you eventually run the risk of an

OVERDOSE.

Summer '09

And so I made it through another endless summer of semi-recklessness. But that time has come again where we come to an end and move on to the fall. June and July was cool but it was August that I was looking forward to.

I went to the place that I have been dreaming about for years.

St. Thomas, Virgin Islands

the most beautiful place that I have been to yet. I met a different kind of sunshine there. Nine days of traveling 3 beautiful island and the great waters. Meeting new people every step of the way.

Having a love hate relationship for Staten Island…urrrgh it seems to be the best and worst thing for me. Seeing faces that I left behind and people I haven’t seen for years. I worked at a place that I truly think was the WORST job that I ever had.

Chilled with my sisters unfortunately no more than two times but tried SUSHI for the first time...something I thought I would never eat.

Randomly saw some people in the weirdest places

Ended a couple of friendships/relationships that weren’t good for me. Seems like people only want what they can’t have.

I went to a couple of basketball tournaments <3

Saw the Boo more than a couple of times <3

Walked the streets of Brooklyn && shopped the stores of Manhattan.

Went to get cupcakes with the Headache

Found a new T.V. show [Weeds] addiction that was introduced by Sunshine.

I spent more time with myself and it allowed me to learn more about myself.

Changed back and forth with phones like 5 times.

Planned to attend picnics that never happened smh

Spoke to the blackman every day…..smh he made me check in because he thought I was getting crazy without him.

Was introduced to a new drink or two…..Apple martini and Hennessey Black <3

Went to plenty BBQ’s and…..well you know how that goes.

&& now it back to packing to go back and unpack && saying my see you laters.

Junior year……wow I’m closer to the end now!

Bittersweet moments.

&& So this is for her

My right hand, my wonder twin, my closest cousin, my diary, my rock, my backbone. We are connected in so many ways and this is why we understand each other better than any other person. She’s been there through the best and the worst. Seriously I don’t know what I would do or how life would be if she wasn’t there. She helps me every step of the way through it all. When things are not going according to plan I could always turn to her for some kind of support. Even from far away we are still so close. Though I’m the only girl from my mother and father she is definitely nothing shorter than a sister. And this is why I dedicate this blog to her.

Untitled IV

I kept you on a pedestal no matter how many times you let me down.

[what does that say about me]

SMH

I will let you know when Im ready

So there have be a countless amount to times that I was asked why aren’t I in a relationship. Well if you truly knew and understood me then you would know why. I have said it many times before that I am at a point of my life that I am growing and learning more about myself. I don’t want to put myself in a situation that I am not quite sure that I am ready for at this moment. Some may see it as avoidance of commitment but that’s not what I see it as. I guess you could say IM LIVING THAT LIFE right now. But, I will let you know when I’m ready.

“I can’t say I’m not the girl for you….but I just might be her yet.”

Happy Birthday Mr. President

"Something"

Falling too fast

Clearly rules dont apply

Cant believe that

I just met you

You got me here watching minutes pass by

Wondering when to expect you

There you go is this a dream

Looking like every picture that

Ive seen of you before

Ive seen it all before now that its over

Should have known better

Then to think this was real

And you could be mine

Should have known better

Slowed it down

Cause I feel you needed time

But I kept thinkin

This could be something 3x

This could be 2x

This could be something 3x

Maybe its just nothing at all

But this could be something

This could be something 2x

This could be 2x

This could be something 3x

Maybe its just nothing at all

At all 2x

Maybe its just nothing at all

At all 2x

I guess its what we make it 2x
