Nightmare Filled Dreams
Last nights dreams were filled with nightmares. I woke up dead and having to guess if you still cared. Dazed and confused wondering why I’m still here. Last nights dreams were filled with nightmares. Went to sleep with hope and woke up with fear. I went searching for the light but only darkness is near….
(Wo)man
For man is nothing without (wo)man. For you could be the sun,but no one would know anything about you if not for the stars and the moon You could build houses, but (s)he creates a home You could conquer kingdoms, but (s)he turns chairs into thrones. For what is fire without oxygen and wood to help…
Right Here.
Don’t ask me to leave you right here…This place where we aren’t together. This place that feels like hell because you’re so far away and looking like heaven Don’t ask me to leave you here… This place where the last time I saw your face it was filled with tears. Where I love you and…
Supposed To Be I Do
It was suppose to be you, it was suppose to end in I do. I remember the first time I saw you. No take it back even before that. I remember that first time I knew you existed. You were the girl that was a click away, the girl that liked my thoughts. I wanted…
A Year of Music: the Top 50 Songs of 2015
Music is the most universal thing we have. If the tale of the Tower of Babel is real, music is our one true language. A native tongue provided by sound and rhythm. It invokes emotions that make us human in ways we never could’ve imagined. Physically I want to travel the world. Music takes my…
Tamir Rice Verdict
It’s hard being black. Mostly because just as I say that sentence right there people vanish. You’ve been conditioned to no longer care. Now I can’t say this about the people I am around on the regular basis, but the people I am around aren’t the majority of this country or this system that was…

My A Christmas Story.
I love my family. I love my family. I love my family. I often repeat this to myself after two days with my family and I am annoyed and over the situation. I do love my family dearly. We only get together once every year or two and usually around the holidays. The vast majority…

I Only Sit in the Family Section
I remember vividly the look in my mother’s eyes on those nights when she would tell me beautiful lies. The most frequent lie in my youth she told me was “Son you eat, I’m not hungry”. She would say this with a straight face as she would give me a portion of food that was…
