Because...

Because…

Because I’m tired of hearing inspiration and not doing anything with it I wrote this. Because I’m tired of being belittled by my bosses’ egotistical power trip I wrote this. Because I’ve been moved by motivational YouTube videos of Les Brown, Eric Thomas, Denzel Washington and Will Smith I wrote this. Because I vow not to give away my valuable time I made time to write And because I’m sick of…

I Believe

I cried today. Because the vibrations of God’s reign casted a force Of magnetic goodness that seeped out from my core I cried tears of joy. The good was too good to stay inside. The energy…was alive! You feel me? 2 minutes into 2 tears from 2 eyes granted me the access to a power. The power of 2. 2 me’s, the old and the new 2 chances, the fucked up and what’s Koo 2 lessons, to love and what not…

Love & Religion

Love is very real….and so is religion. I believe the importance of the two depend on your definition. I’ll leave that there. Honestly, I need you guys to understand love and religion and how it correlates in my life to better understand why I believe what I believe. (Side-Note: Feel free to close out this page now if this isn’t a topic you’re comfortable with. No hard feelings, I only wish to…

True Self-Love

True self love is when you say to yourself “I’m here for you” “And if it comes down to it baby I’d kill for you” An overwhelming emotion beings to burst Because you don’t need another soul to tell you that they love you at your worst. You end up telling yourself. That no matter how high that struggle mountain climb My love for you grows longer The more I go through the more I am stronger “You,…

Breakfast Before the Breakdown

So I’m doing my ritual over-thinking conundrum and begin to start feeling down on myself. Lordt. Before I begin knawing and deteriorating my self-esteem I come up with a plan to save my sanity for the day. “Let’s not focus and think deeply about the things you’re unhappy with but start naming 5 things I am happy with… Here’s what I came up with: (No particular order, remember my brain is mildly…

Sensuality

Sensousity

Taureans: The Sensuous Zodiac

Tilt my head back gently Feed me Sweet red wine & strawberries Let it runith over my lips, Red juices dripping down my chin Steering down my throat Stains on the breast of my white tanktop Taste me, am I good to you?

Touch me… here Right… there Past my smooth skin I can feel the prickled new growth of your spiritual beard. Breathe deeply on me. Feel my vibrations with…

Bliss

A friend of mine told me I was chasing my dreams today I’ve been so caught up searching for structure that I didn’t even recognize the weightless footsteps I take on cloud 9… Damn, this is real. I am chasing my dreams To everyone else…it may seem like nothing. I’ve spent too much of my time trying to prove that what I’m after is worthy But thats unnecessary I see these visions which mean I have…

Lenny Williams

Poor broken souls listen to Lenny Williams cause they can’t find sleep anymore. Poor broken souls like me, don’t find peace. Second time I played this song and I’ma go ahead a play it once more. Something about the soft tunes of ‘Cause I Love You’ that mellow out my broken heart and doesn’t make it feel so broken. Don’t laugh but, he understands me. We arrrre two strangers. Been through the same…

Call Me Bitterness

Sometimes I lash-out when I miss you. There are days when I wake up angry at the world. I hold back a lot because of you. Often tell myself you’re no good and that I’m better off without you. Doesn’t replace your empty spot though. More like a placebo, Stimulant that comforts me at night boo. But sometimes…sometimes I still hate you. It’s not because of the things you do, done or the lost…

Compatibility

Perfect. In all the ways you are. Do I ruin you? Mix in your mixtures will the love I have for you over power the light in you? Can we build? Can we support? Can we make babies that’ll save the world? Can we hold it down? Even when you dislike the wrinkles on my forehead cause I’m upset. Do I ruin you? Perfect. In all the ways you are so I wonder if adding me may or may not be necessary.
