Can We Love Again

Lying here it seems like yesterday
When is laughed and we planned
Like we knew about tomorrow

Now it feels like the clock on that wall
Wants to remind me
There's nothing in this room
But pain and sorrow

I remember
We said nothing's gonna break us
Nothing can ever break us
So why's this empty room closing in
And I can barely breathe

I need you
I miss you
I wish you
Could touch my heart again
But I'm here
And you're where
I want to know
Can we love again?

If I could change the words I said
Would it take away the pain
Right now I'd take all the blame

So why does seem the clock on that wall
Wants to remind me
There's nothing in this room
But pain and sorrow

I remember
We said nothing's gonna break us
Nothing can ever break us
So why's this empty room closing in
And I can barely breathe

I need you
I miss you
I wish you
Could touch my heart again
But I'm here
And you're where
I want to know
Can we love again?

WHAT NOT TO WEAR!!!

Good Monday Morning to you....today I gotta get this in. I had planned to talk Music, today being Music Monday but I saw something yesterday that got me. I am a woman of thickness....so finding garments that not only accentuate my curves but that flatter my body shape is difficult, I UNDERSTAND! But a long time ago I invested in a full length mirror so I could see what others see when the see me coming and sometimes leaving.... So when I saw this I raised an eyebrow.... pay attention to the highlighted area...this is too TIGHT! I really wanted to get a front view because these were harem pants with a slits in front.... #fashionfail
but
Then there is underwear mishap! Where do I start? This outfit needs either, a thong or lace boy shorts but not these cotton briefs she got on!! Clothing even when fitted should have smooth lines!!!!

Back to the Music

I've been thinking about music a lot lately. No, I'm not a musician, but my life has always been filled with music. I always thought that it was the same for most people. We're just constantly surrounded by music at least I am. I MAKE MUSIC! I found my mother staring at me one evening while we were having dinner. Here's what happened...

"You still do that?"
"Do what?"
"Hum while you eat."
"Huh"
"You don't even realize, do you?"
I shrugged.
"What were you humming?"
"I don't know"

The thing is I wasn't humming ANYTHING IN PARTICULAR. It's just that wherever I am, I hear music! In my head its Jazz, Pop, R&B even Rock some days, but for me it's always there. There is always some music. My music is in the shower, my music is while I'm cooking, my music is while I'm walking through the mall.

Now that I think about it maybe I am a musician.

My question is, where is your music?

Shoe Fetish : Alexander McQueen Boot

Anyone that knows me would know I have a shoe fetish especially boots....Any man that wants to impress me needs to have his shoe game on point.

Late night surfing I found some beautiful babies!
They were absolutely calling my name.

• Luxurious leather upper.
• Gold-tone eyelets decorate the shaft.
• Spool heel.
• Leather lining.
• Leather sole
• Made in Italy.
• 4 1/2" heel.
• 3/4" platform.

Music Week

This week I've decided to focus primarily on music. I've been listening to a lot of music lately and I think that like Prince has so eloquently put it....music is in good hands. Okay yes we have a couple that slipped through the cracks...but generally MUSIC is good. On Saturday, I found myself remembering Coltrane, Yes COLTRANE!! I put a couple songs on repeat...then found myself just vibing.... So let's do Music!!

My Yesterday

Every day I struggle between the person that I am and who I used to be. Every day someone reminds me of what I must fight to leave behind. I have made great strides in life and cannot understand why today seems harder than the rest. Today, I find my hands trembling to inflict pain, yet I say this is not who I am. Today, my very breath feels shortened by the desire to break something or someone, but this is reflective of my yesterday.

Who have I become? And why do I hate her so much? Why is she a mere shadow, a fragment of who I used to be?

Becoming this weak, fragile silhouette has left me with many sleepless nights. I am left awake to wonder what I have given up and why? Today more that yesterday I want to move, I need action. My head aches from the unresolved issues that yesterday a fist and a fight would cure. The blade I once carried has long been retired, but on this road I see it glimmer in the corner of my eye. Yesterday, I knew no retreat, I saw no need to surrender and I lived without fear.

Today, I am stuck in a state of dependence that causes me pain. I walked away from the satisfaction of a job well done. After the fight, after the chaos, I felt at peace. Today feel unfulfilled at so many incomplete jobs. So many people that have forgotten and simply don’t know, the me I used to be. So what have I decided? Return to the sheath and retrieve the shank? I guess we’ll wait and see.

SIGNS SHE MIGHT JUST BE A GROUPIE

Today is New Music Tuesday

Before I get into that…after watching my Twitter timeline in partial awe…I decided to write a note my entertaining friends and future wannabes. I don’t know if maybe with all the tattoos you guys have if there’s a space left on your body, you could etch these tell tale signs.

SIGNS SHE MIGHT JUST BE A GROUPIE

• She claims to strictly wear labels, but she don’t have a job…she might be a groupie.
• You see her in the background of more than four of your boys photos but NO ONE knows who she is….she might be a groupie.
• She’s at fourteen of the cities during your 30 city cross country tour and a couple of non posted side shows…she might be a groupie!
• She starts sentences with “At (insert celebrity name here) birthday party we had so much fun” (and she has twenty of these stories)and she can name EVERY CELEB that was there..She might be a groupie!
• At your after party, the club owner introduces her as his “best girl, I mean favorite customer, I mean my niece”...She might be a groupie!
• She refuses to tell you what the notches tattooed on her ankle mean and just laughs “ha ha he he” (punch her in the gut “haha hehe this!”)
• She mentions money within the first 15 minutes of talking to her.
• She introduces herself by her twitter tag and ask why you ain’t following her, even though she sent you a pic of her breast.
• She asks "where you staying?" after you ask her name...She might be a groupie!
• If she follows ALL the same celebrity friends on twitter as you do and answers your EVERY TWEET! ......RUN BECAUSE THAT CHICK IS STALKING YOU!!!!
  

Feel free to add your own and pass on to your favorite celeb and or entertainer!

Travellers Rest

I've spent the last two weeks traveling...from MIA to ATL to the Bahamas and back again. In three weeks it all starts over for me. I've grown fond of traveling but I grow weary of travel hassles. There are the packing hassles, the parking hassles, the security checkpoint hassles, the airport personnel hassles.
Traveling has become such a hassle! Sometimes when I'm done with my travels, I need to rest! Only to go through hotel hassles. It's funny though most people that I talk to find the whole thing exhilarating....to those people, I say hats off!! But when i think of travel all I see is this.....

Maybe I should rest from my travels for a bit.
