I love music

What can I say other than I love music and I believe it's one of the best creations ever. I listen to music everyday, always have. Music stimulates me, excites me, entices me, invites me to enjoy every feeling my human body is allowed to feel. Music also opens up gateways for me to enter and play with my thoughts and indulge in my imagination. Music makes me appreciate life in a way that some don't.

I can appreciate, respect and cherish what others may dismiss, such as vulnerability, egoism, arrogance, masculinity, femininity, sorrow, joy, pain, confusion etc..., music is poetry and poetry is life.
Every piece of music you've ever heard is just the soundtrack to everyone's life regardless of any race, color or creed. It's the same messages all around the world just conveyed for everyone to understand in their own language, culture and themes. So this blog is to show appreciation to the beautiful musicians who have consistently, creatively made the soundtracks to my life, songs that inspired me, uplifted me, helped me cry through my sadness and just provided a smooth ride through all of my trials and tribulations.

One of the most realest conversations:

Anyone who knows me, conversed with me or hung out with me, pretty much knows that when it comes to talking out an issue, discussing one's wants and/or needs, communicating on a serious problem that desperately and immediately needs to be fixed; knows that I like honest, direct, graceful, diplomatic and most of all, sincere conversation. I have never been one for hinting, beat around the bush talk, unclear or vague discussion or that sneaky, unexpected, hit below the belt 'cause I'm not woman enough or man enough to say what I want and need to say, indirect comment speak. The only way you can ever get me to hash out anything, is if you come with the REAL. And when I say " REAL ", I don't mean, LOUD AND OBNOXIOUS ATTITUDE, FINGER POPPIN', BULLY TONED, I BETTER DO WHAT YOU SAY TYPE OF TALK . I mean REAL , like you have some since. REAL . Meaning, I've come to speak to you candidly about my thoughts and feelings but I'm also open and willing to hear...

Who are you to say, who or what makes him or her a poet?

I’m a poet because I say so and no one can tell me different, doesn’t matter if my poetry is not what you like or what you think is prestige or what does not follow the traditional way of which you all go by. Although I respect the tradition, unfortunately it’s just not my mission to follow you. It is only in my best interest to do me, be me and travel the road that was given and best laid out for me. Poetry is not who says it’s poetry-poetry is whatever is in your heart and whatever is in your heart is what will bleed upon any page that you write it on. And if it is in you, then please know, that it is you, that is your poetry story and if it is meant to be heard, then you will be known, if it is not, then it is only your song privately to keep. And sure you can take a course or a few classes to better enhance your gift, maybe even get a degree in creative writing, english or journalism for your chance to concretely say that you are now official. But I believe that when you were born,...

Just cause you love me and I love you...

"Just cause I love you and you love me; It doesn't mean that we're meant to be" Jazmine Sullivan The above quote is the truest statement I've ever heard spoken in my life. As old as I am and as much wisdom as I've been blessed enough to collect to keep and live by. I don't think that I've ever thought about love in a relationship that way. I don't know about you, but I've been in love with two men at the same time before and it was the most difficult position I've ever been in. Because I always believed that things happen for a reason and so, it must be meant. But that's not always the case. Sometimes things are placed in your path to make you either appreciate what you already have, maybe uplift you to keep you going, or give you a hint of wisdom to do something different. Doesn't always mean that they are meant to stay in your life forever. We've all heard that saying " Some people come into your life for a life tim...
