WAITING ON YOU.
I went home to have dinner with my parents and my brother last night. After we finished eating, we decided it would be nice to sit in the living for awhile and catch up on life. I laid down on my favorite couch, rested my head on the comfiest pillow I could find, closed my eyes and took a deep breath. Although most of my body was able to relax, my left hand was still clutched tightly around my phone...it had that way all through dinner as well. I was still waiting to hear from you.
LATE NIGHT DANA.
Tonight I talked on the phone with one my sistas for almost 2 hours. I even taught her a new word!
"Trustafarian" is now an integral part of her vocab.

THE HOLD.
What we were, and the things we did
Yes, these are things I miss
But it's what we weren't, and the things we didn't
That keep me holding on to this

MISSING THE SUN.
Ain't no way to explain or say
How painful the hangover was today
In front of the toilet, hands and knees
Trying to breathe in between the dry heaves
My baby made me some coffee
Afraid that if I drink some it's probably coming right back out me
Couple of advil, relax and chill
At a standstill with how bad I feel
I think I need to smell fresh hair
So I stepped out the back door and fell down the stairs
The sunlight hit me dead in the eye
Like it's mad I gave half the day to last night
My bad sight made me trip on my ass right into that patch of grass like that's life
All of a sudden, I realize something
The weather is amazing, even the birds are bumpin
Stood up and took a look and a breath
And there's that bike that I forgot that I possessed
Never really seen exercise as friendly
But I thing something's telling me to ride that 10 speed
The brakes are broken, it's alright
The tires got air and the chain seems tight
Hopped on and felt the summertime,
It reminds me of one of them Musab lines like
Sunshine, sunshine, it's fine
I feel it in my skin, warming up my mind,
Sometimes you gotta give in to win,
I love the days when it shines, whoa let it shine

Sunshine, sunshine, it's fine

Sometimes you gotta give in to win,
I love the days when it shines, whoa let it shine
If I could I would keep this feeling in a plastic jar
Bust it out whenever someone's actin hard
Settle down, barbeque in the backyard
The kids get treats and old folks get classic cars
Every day that gets to pass is a success
Every woman looks better in a sun dress
The sunshine's an excuse to shoot hoops, get juice
Show improve their moves and let loose
I hear voices, I see smiles to match em
Good times and you can feel it in the fashion
Even though the heat cooks up the action
The streets still got butterflies
Enough kids to catch 'em
Ridin my bike around these lakes man
Feelin like I finally figured out my escape plan
Take it all and the day started off all wrong
Somehow now that hangover is all gone
Ain't nothing like the sound of the leaves
When the breeze penetrates these southside trees
Leanin' up against one, watchin the vibe
Forgettin' all about the stress, thanking god I'm alive
It's so simple, I had to keep the song simple
When I get home I'm gonna open all the windows
Feelin all right, stopped at a stop sign
A car pulled up, bumpin Fresh Prince's Summertime
I feel it in my skin, warming up my mind,
Sometimes you gotta give in to win,
I love the days when it shines, whoa let it shine
If I could I would keep this feeling in a plastic jar
Bust it out whenever someone's actin hard
Settle down, barbeque in the backyard

I KNOW THE FEELING.
Yesterday
Was that you? Looked just like you
Strange thangs my imagination might do
Take a breath, reflect on what we been through
Or am I just goin' crazy 'cause I miss you?

COMPLICATIONS.
Complicated maze. This phrase fits you perfect.
Come back in later days. Talk to me when you're certain.
You're always changing up. Never stay the same person.

TAKING ME.
Perpetual longing
For pieces of my heart
Scattered
From sea to shining sea.
For pieces of my heart
Scattered
From sea to shining sea.
Each came
Stayed awhile
Gave and took love
And left with a piece of me.
- Me

RANDOM THOUGHT.
I was just laying in bed and thought to myself, "catch me if you can." Now I'm pondering the choice of whether or not to place that saying somewhere on my fb profile.
It's just so applicable...
LOVE TEST.
Sometimes love is a test. How do you pass? Love unconditionally and expect nothing in return.

THIS AND US.
Sometimes I think, this time around, it won't hurt as bad. I think that I have things under control; my feelings under control. And guess what? Wayyy in the back of my mind, I know it just ain't so. But I tell myself that it will turn out differently, because the situation is different - whether it was the way we met or the way we fell in love. And for a while things are good and I'm happy and in love; eating and breathing and walking and sleeping love.
But then comes the day, when they stand in front of me, or lay in bed next to me...and I have no idea who they are. It is a horrible feeling to look at someone and realize, that everything may mean nothing and that some people use the word "love" without understanding the weight those four letters carry.

WE MAKE MAGIC.
What we have together - create together - is like that which i'd previously only seen, read, or heard about in movies, magazines, and fairytales...PURE MAGIC.
