I always envision a rainy New York night, underneath the streetlights, set in black in white. A woman and a man walking hand in hand, under the shelter of an umbrella. He suddenly stops walking and she turns to him with concern. In one hand, he holds up the umbrella, shielding them from the rain,ContinueContinue reading “New York”

Note To Self
Think about it… We leave notes for our loved ones We leave notes for our children But have you ever left a note for yourself? When is the last time you told yourself to have a great day? To smile? That you look beautiful? Why is that it’s so easy to have dialogue with othersContinueContinue reading “Note To Self”
3:00 am Insomnia
You are the first person on my mind When I wake up earlier than my alarm Struggling to get back to sleep… But contacting you, hoping you’re struggling too So we can say f***k the day, Staying up on the phone like the teenagers we never got to see one another as…
Fitting
Effortless connections Vibes that synchronize Diving deep into the infinity pools of your joy Puzzle pieces fitting like fingers to a glove We mesh… We just…work
The One That Got Away
I’m the One. The One your mother told you to cherish. The One your father told you not to mess over. The One media deems to be a “basic bitch” in one breath, then makes memes about craving in another. I’m the One. The One you don’t want. The One that you’ll check up onContinueContinue reading “The One That Got Away”
Entitlement & Self Awareness
Shout out to the people that understand that no one owes them anything. Somewhere down the line we took on this ugly mind set in which we feel entitled. And not even the dope entitlement that Nas taught us about with the world being ours. It’s the spoiled brat But-I-Want-It kind of entitlement. The I-Didn’t-Want-It-Until-I-Saw-YoursContinueContinue reading “Entitlement & Self Awareness”
Good Love
We dream of it. We imagine what it would be like. We fight with every fiber of our being to construct it with the wrong people, leaving us scarred and bitter…damaged. I suppose I’ll begin by elaborating on the effects of desiring good love. At times, we give good love and expect it in return.ContinueContinue reading “Good Love”
Emma
I spoke with a woman today, That was yearning to be home. She was a complete stranger to me, But my soul cried right along with the tears falling from her eyes. I had to hold her. I had to attempt to temporarily keep the pieces from falling as she caved in-front of me. Home…ContinueContinue reading “Emma”
Impatient Queen
I said that I was sent here to love. (For You) At the ripe age of 23, I scream, “WHAT THE F-!!” I’m tired! I’m tired of giving my whole self because that’s who I am, down to my core. I mean, let’s face it… My mother and father didn’t birth a half-asser in theContinueContinue reading “Impatient Queen”
For You
I was sent here to love. To knock you down with compassion and empathy. To capture you with just how understanding I can be. To grab a sledgehammer and start breaking you free from the unhealthy cycle of a shitstorm you grew up in with fears of taking it all on with no help. ToContinueContinue reading “For You”
