Timing

Men typically say it after one month

Women tend to go for about  five

Darling, I’ve said it since day 3

Whispered after you’d hung up the phone

Spoken to my favorite picture of you

Even though you never heard 

You probably suspected

And because of respect

I haven’t told you

I don’t want to scare you off, so

I’ll wait out those five months patiently

…or maybe just two, that’s all I can stand before

I tell you  that, so much that I bite my tongue every time we talk

to keep myself from revealing  it, 

I am deeply, truly, maddeningly

in love with you

Early mornings

I have always loved early mornings

When it is quiet

And the rest of the world is still sound asleep.

Where it feels as if

You’re the only one awake

And in the moment,

You forget about all your problems

Because for now,

It’s just you, the world, and the sunrise,

And I can’t think of anything better than that.

Mind’s surface

When standing alone on the surface my mind is at its darkest. When thoughts of you flood it’s surface stars can be seen across its surface. When the possibilities of us emerge the moon can be seen across its surface.The time between now and then creates gravity to its surface.The emotion I easily drown in creates water onto its surface.The growth that could sustain us creates greenery onto its surface.The obstacles that might come creates mountains onto its surface.The reminder that I feel you next to me creates life onto its surface. The reminder that we are in this together brings theblinding sunshine onto it’s surface.

Sunflower

Let your truth speak Let it radiate from your skin like the brightness of a sunflowerYou are alive You are breathing Feel your chest rise and fallFeel yourself in this moment This is your body This is your soul No one else will experience the world in the way that you do No one else can do exactly what you can What are you waiting for? What will you do with your time on this earth? 

Two Truths and a Liar

There are leaders, & then there are misleaders.In your seek of knowledge, guide your noggin and be protective of what you feed it.Be present as class is in session, The world your school.Your provisions such as your tools, are supplied in your purpose, we are all purposeful so no… life cannot go on without you.  The rules are your morals & values..Follow a select few that seek the same views so you do not get confused. Remember, There are always 2 truths.Stand firm in your beliefs. Keep conversations brief, with fools who lack minimal information for you to retrieve. Respect comes first. But, It is ok to agree to disagree. Mistakenly proceed. Failure is taken place for you to succeed. Learn while you live.Once you graduate, Then you are to lead others along the way.
