[Internal] Dialogue I
Are you difficult to love? I ask this of myself all the time…. I believe my answer is yes. I heard a preacher once say that you will never know how to love difficult people until you realize that you’re one of them.. The audacity! but clearly I’m up and arms because, well, it’s true. […]
2:13 🐍
2:13, I would say happy birthday, To they who shall not be named. It’s been 2 years|3 months since my last text, 2 years|3 months since you ghosted, Decade long friendship, (wow) Crazy how your disregard was so flagrant. God I wish I could let it go, Give myself the closure I long for… It […]
This is [Un] fair…..
…. “All is fair in love and war,” Sounds like someone who’s never loved before.I love you, believe me I do,But I have a feeling babe, You love me more than I do. The truth is I don’t think I deserve you, I never have; But I always felt we were part of God’s plan. But now I’m questioning it all;Like […]

Questioning….
No filter, no shame… and I dare you to say you don’t question the same… Would I rather hang out with atheists, agnostics, non-christians, or a flat out stranger than the Christians of today? Yes I would. And I bet Jesus would too. As a matter of fact when he walked this earth that’s […]
The Exception
Today I wake up, Is it going to be me? Will I be the one on your t.v. screen? Sickness, death or harm, Is all I think about when you’re in my arms. The anxiety is crippling, But it’s better than vulnerability, It’s got to be. Laughing, smiles; pure joy, I wish […]
