Awakening

The medicine man has arrived to soothe what has ailed you Renew your health with a shiny soul Ready to embark on new journeys to infinity Places I cannot think of in my head Places traveled only in heart Ready yourself for all that this world has for you Open your eyes, your heart and breathe easier The air is fresh so inhale, exhale and repeat

Wait

Breathe quietly, it’s going to be ok Win or lose…… You climbed the rock that hovered over your light You emerged unscathed from the dark unknown limbo You escaped the mediocre limits set for you What is it that you search for that brings you so far out of your comfort zone? What love, what passion exists to drive a man mad with ambition?

As I gaze at the ceiling Body stretched across the hardwood floor I reminisce over the years passed by Who am I? What have I become? What will I become? Where will this journey go? As I stack memories I pause to appreciate things gained and lost Those lost in the fire but also found after and in between The floor is cold, almost Antarctic But I need the cold…..it gives me focus Focus to allow my mind a straighter path Those stacked memories Stacked like Legos building a path to bridge my past with the present and inevitably the future. Melancholy moments of happiness Divine moments alone on this cold floor Immune to whatever perils may throw me off course My mind is a ship, sailing through violent waters But heading straight regardless No journey is worth it without a few unexpected waves As I gaze at the ceiling I remember not only the things we lost in the fire but also things we gained in between and after

black girls don’t need long hair to be beautiful black girls don’t need light skin to be beautiful black girls don’t need light colored eyes to be beautiful black girls don’t need a huge ass to be beautiful black girls don’t need a thin nose to be beautiful black girls don’t need thinner lips to be beautiful black girls don’t need to fit into your stereotypical form of attractive to be beautiful

Once my soul was perfect and had wings to soar into heaven. The recollection of childhood dreams of eternity and beyond Traveling at the speed of life never to slow down for simple things Worldly things that only served to distract from the greatness to come. I still dream of tulip fields with eternal sunshine.

The Queen that she is

Her brown skin, sometimes dark like bitter chocolate, sometimes light like caramel, but always beautiful.

“You shall love whether you like it or not. Emotions, they come and go like clouds. Love is not only a feeling; you shall love. To love is to run the risk of failure, the risk of betrayal. You fear your love has died; perhaps it is waiting to be transformed into something higher. Awaken the divine presence which sleeps in each man, each woman. Know each other in that love that never changes”

The Champion patiently waits to shine

Doubt is the boogey man It appears as you are beginning to believe It lurks in the shadows as you carry on Waiting to rear its disbelief in you Let them doubt………………. Let them laugh and smirk at all the things you hope for It is not for them to be pleased……… Remember it is for you and only you Only you truly understand what you are capable of But when others feel the need to tell you about your limits Listen attentively……………LEARN!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But no need to engage any further Just listen………..And LEARN I learned a long time ago that arguing with non-believers will only lead to grief and ulcers Why should you worry about what they think when their path has nothing to do with yours Your experiences differ immensely   Forget all the naysayers and strive Strive for whatever it is that your heart and mind can collaborate to achieve Remember all those who helped but never forget………….. Never forget the doubters They will carry you through it all Every morning when you wake………… Remember Night and day…..rain or shine…… Hold them close to your heart and then remember to thank them too They deserve the most thanks Without them, where would you be? The greatest motivators are the detractors And they don’t even know it Everything that you accomplish will be in spite of them They will marvel in amazement at the end And ask you, How come? Just thank them……
