Subtle Elations


I
 am still learning how to walk
The talk has been a big part of me
Getting all your adrenaline rushing
Only to call in and find me 
Barely started with my race



As I make baby steps
A talk starts to walk about
What is he up to these days?
My limbs threaten to quit 
But my subconscious sleeps on it



This walk is getting better
Better and better every other day
I only hope I don't wander
I am also learning to be much calmer
Everytime that I feel closer



I feel a deep love
For my brothers 
Everytime I see them having my back
These men from other mothers
They've been pillars in my deepest agonies



At least I am breathing
Always up and kicking
Reaching out for the best
And having it together with the rest
A lesson many young men haven't



Lord am grateful
My glass is half full but my heart is full
I often shrink but you always magnify me
My chest is warm amidst these hustle horrors
But I equally grin within, I'm freaking elated

L'amour avant d'amour

 Juste avant que je parle  Je me sens a little bit trapped for a second in my own head Wondering whether what I am about to spit out willl feel good enough and still make good sense in your head I tend to struggle with eloquence  But why should l'éloquence be ma concérne majeur when I cant even explique these feelings that I desire to tell you of  Feelings I can't even take control of So, juste avant I go on to speak,  I will seek Shakespeare's Romeo et Juliette and the like  So to be learned enough on how to put my point across the line  To you that i wish to love To you en qui je trouve le paix    Juste avant que je ,... soupire I wonder if I can count on my own lungs long enough in case i had to sprint to save this love If I'd be able to pull off a hide and seek avec our great grand kids dans des soirs finales de ma vie  Or if I could still trust my arms with d'énergie to sweep you off the floor even when I'm about a century old Ooh...

Blind Emulation.

A heavy head from an active Friday night is all you have left. Forgetting your worries and living your fantasies was your reason. Now here you still are, sober enough to remember your bills, your landlord's share from your monthly peanuts and ofcourse, the little one's welfare. You meant to create joy and happiness from it only to end up with bad breath, a terribly intoxicated body and suspicion getting you craving for as many more pills in the name of security and prevention. It must be crazy out there. I know. It is crazy out there. In every hundred of us, the majority continues to contain this same syndrome. Working like a horse from Monday through the week to Friday, where the party gets started. And then there comes the weekend getting you to sleep like a koala in your would have been most useful time. Hold it. Now Hold it a bit. Take a deep breath and then you can read on. I got some bitter truths about you on the low you might wanna ponder on. Don't wo...

Rosy Actually Ep.4

                    As she approached the open front door of her apartment she wondered whether they hadn't hurt her mother. Once she got in, she noticed that everything was in place except for the broken vessel in the center of the living room which indicated that there might have been a struggle as Frank's boys made the move. Yet they were so clean. Nothing else was broken or damaged. They likely captured the old woman swiftly without a single soul noticing them. She turned around to examine the door closely. It hadn't a single scratch. Whoever made it in either had a copy of the key  or found it open. But it could never have been open as far as Lucy knows her mother's cautiousness. By now, she would probably be yelling at her for returning late like she had always done since Lucy's late teens. She ran out to examine the courtyard. Whichever vehicle had done this was definitely big as its tyre tracks indicated, And it was most lik...
