I might have shoulders I can go to, but I choose to cry on my own. I deal with my pain alone, and when I lose myself, I find myself alone because some paths I’m meant to walk on my own.

Chocolate and Roses

Let me get at you like chocolate and roses with this poetry,

Keeping it old school when it comes to sweeping you off your feet.

Outdated, but it’s the purest thing to me.

Nowadays, that’s something you don’t see, but that doesn’t mean

There isn’t someone out there looking for that to receive.

I’d rather live within my means.

Why pretend to be someone who, in due time, through you’ll see?

Not trying to hide behind money and jewelry,

Expensive dinner dates, and every weekend new scenery.

'Cause I’m aiming for a lasting impression, not just the first-time impression.

A lasting connection, that when they speak of love, our relationship will be mentioned.

Welcome to My Heart & Mind

This collection offers an intimate glimpse into the very essence of my heart and mind. It’s not categorized in any specific order but flows sporadically, much like life itself. Through poetry, quotes, and thoughts, I invite you to journey with me through the unpredictable and beautiful moments that shape our lives.

In these pages, you’ll find reflections on love, loss, joy, and sorrow—each piece a fragment of my experiences and emotions. Some days, the words came easily, flowing like a gentle stream. Other days, they were harder to capture, like trying to hold onto a fleeting dream. But in every moment, there is a truth, a lesson, or a glimpse of beauty waiting to be discovered.

As you read, I hope you find a connection to your own journey. May these words inspire you to embrace the unpredictability of life, to find beauty in the small moments, and to cherish the depth of your own heart and mind. This collection is a testament to the power of authenticity and the beauty of genuine connections.

Thank you for allowing me to share this part of myself with you. Let’s embark on this journey together, one page at a time.

That's Not Him

I express myself better with a pen,

Letting the words flow as they tend,

To the pain and sadness I carry within.

What’s he talking about? That’s not him.

Blinded by the light that my aura gleams,

The result of darker times I used to breathe.

Can’t blame, I tend to not share,

Conservative with my life.

You never know when evil cares.

I'm happy where I'm at but I know I haven't made it. I have to keep going. My happiness isn't a sign to stop, my happiness is a sign that I'm heading in the right direction.

Don't let the frowns of yesterday keep you from the smiles of today.

There are people who will try to darken your light, but they forget that light shines brighter in the dark.

Beauty may capture the eyes, but it won't capture the heart.

In your life, if I'm not a blessing, most likely I'll be a lesson. But regardless, it's still a win-win situation.

I speak what I feel, hoping you feel what I speak. Straightforward and direct because I know what I seek. It isn't your beauty or your amazing physique. I want to know what keeps you smiling even when sadness in your eyes I see. You try to hide it with that smile, but you aren't fooling me. I can tell when you're genuinely happy and when you're pretending to be. They say game recognizes game, and those looks are recognizable to me. You aren't alone; show me your demons, and together we'll defeat. A two-for-one special—if you give me a chance, a knight and a king you will receive. Sworn to protect and die for their Queen. The ball is in your court it's really up to you because I already made my choice and I chose you.

Anything that is given or offered to you without you asking for it, is always more than enough.

One's state of mind is due to one's state of time, but just like time changes, so should one's state of mind.

My smile is the light that lights up the darkness in my eyes and my words are the tears that I hide.

Even though at times I might walk in the dark, my light is illuminating the way. It dims at times, but as long as it doesn't go out, I'll be okay.

I have lied, cheated and stolen. I know I'm not perfect and I own it.
