On Music-
I’ve always believed music says a lot about a person. The type of music a person listens to depicts where their soul is most at home. After all, when you’re feeling emotions to extremes whether it be because of vulnerability, frustration, anger, etc., and you turn to music, the songs you choose to console and ease yourself are the songs that somewhat define you as a person. Music has...

It’s dawned upon me that the things that used to hold my concern with such strain now possess no interest to me at all. Meeting people, maintaining a social status, making friends, and even keeping some of the ones I have now, they all don’t seem to retain the same significance as before. They all seem so trivial now.
In this past year I’ve opened my eyes to a lot of things I...

You only see the good in him and all the bad things, you put the good above. Obviating everything that destroys the vision of perfection you’ve shaped him into and deferring all that he’s void of. I understand that you just want to make peace with your jaded heart by allowing it to be free like a dove, but darling, I wish you could see how you’ve become so blinded by love.

Maybe I’m too much for some people. Maybe my thoughts are more burdensome, if anything. Maybe people don’t need to fall into the depths I’ve fallen because they don’t need to possess the knowledge I do. Maybe some people are actually aware of all that I’ve come to realize, but just choose to remain in oblivion for their sanity’s sake.
Who would willingly...

“The only time our friendship is real to you is when you need me the most but...”
I called to you
and I waited.
My heart began to fill with such liveliness
and hope.
In fact,
I fully expected you to be there and smile at me like you used to
but you never came.
That’s the difference between hope and people;
Hope is still there, long after they’re gone.
It’s funny how the thing that keeps you going can be the same thing that hurts you the most.

Pain had become such a big part of my life. I’ve, in a way, expected it to always be there because I can’t remember a moment in time when it wasn’t. I’ve learned to embrace it because it had become all that I knew, until you. You’ve brought me so much joy, and each and every moment that passes where you continue to defy my life’s logic the amount of pain decreases. You’ve taken me out of my...

You see, that’s the problem. People overestimate the value of what they have and underestimate the value of what they may gain by giving it up. They attach themselves to what is familiar- to what they know, and are fearful of and unwilling to face change for whatever reason. Opposition and reluctance to the inevitable is a prison for progress and growth. The difficulties many of us perceive...

The problem is we find satisfaction with what lies on the surface, thus we never bother to dig deeper to find the essence of things when it’s the essence that holds the most significance and meaning.
We’ve become lazy and have settled with our own discontentment.

Ebb and flow
Life is a continuous cycle of ebb and flow. There exists no endless flow — meaning that life is established from ups and downs, and it is impossible for one to subsist without the other. Unfortunately, life can be ebb, ebb, ebb, then only flow only for a brief moment in time, then ebb, ebb, ebb again. But every ebb cultivates new thoughts and new emotions, and it’s those things that...

There aren’t enough words in the dictionary to depict with the correct accuracy how much it is that I love you. Even those three words do little justice when attempting to illustrate the intensity of the emotions you’ve allowed me to feel. There’s only so much I can do and only so much I can say in efforts to try and get you to comprehend the depth of my feelings, but I’m...

Stripped Of Love
As a child I was hardly shown love and affection in the ways I believe I needed it most. My grandparents and my Mom do indeed love me, I know that now, but as a child their love was something so questionable to me and unfortunately that’s had a drastic affect on the way I am today.
I’ve come to realize that the love I was deprived of as a child, I may spend the rest of my life...

I Will Never Forget You
Never. The feelings you give me run too deep now and the strength of them is something that has taken control of my sanity. You will always remain a part of me, even if what we have were to expire, because I know I tattooed your name on my heart the moment I admitted to myself I love you.

Well-rounded
For years I’ve struggled to categorize myself. To be classified and type casted in a genre that suited me. Flustered because my interests swing from vintage to urban and it’s subcategories, even with my taste in music, I found it puzzling how my ears were able to find relaxation in lyrical hip hop and hard rock. I found myself idolizing people who faithfully retain contrasting personas, and that...

I’ve learned that love does not have a universal meaning. That it’s defined differently for everyone based on their past experiences and the love that they’ve been exposed to and given through out their lives. That the love people have to offer, is a reflection of the love they’ve accepted for themselves.
I’m familiar with the saying “Just...

Given, I’ve learned a lot from you. You inspired me in so many ways. More ways than I had realized. It’s saddening, how you were perhaps the biggest contribution to my growth and yet you’ll never even see the positive influence you had on me. I regret not appreciating you for all that you meant to me until your presence was no longer in my life. Now, all you are is a memory, and...
This is so therapeutic.

See how easily he lied to those he claimed he cared about? Not a trace of guilt could be found on his face, nor a tremble in his voice. His lies slip his tongue with such ease. Instinctively, almost.
Now, imagine the deceit he made you believe to be truth.

"Perfect"
It’s occurred to me that our definition of perfection changes with time. As we accumulate more insight of the world around us and our awareness of things expand, our former view of perfect suddenly becomes inferior. “Perfection” is merely an adjective used to describe something for a brief time period, and that time period ends as soon as something better comes along. And that...

Ignorance > Arrogance
Those who are ignorant, I do not judge or criticize them, rather I take the initiative and pass on the knowledge I’ve acquired and teach them what I know. Those who are properly educated but demean others who are unaware without even offering to inform them are the ones whose respect I have for dwindles, for it’s those people who seem to neglect their sense of empathy. They ignore the...
