It Was Wisdom

I was eager to meet this wonder but not prepared for what this wonder stored
I looked at it-so tiny in size and so soft on the eyes
So strong on the heart-on my heart
I looked at it and saw the light, not the light from a train
A greater light
A warm light
Only a light that illuminates from the Halos of the angels
Who knew this little wonder possessed such a humongous energy
Bigger than you and me
This energy flowed from it to me and allowed me to see 
It ran through my body beginning at my fingertips
and simultaneously chilled every cell of my composition
My heart began to take a rapid beat as fear ensued
But once I refocused my gaze on this little thing
The beat slowed as I was soothed by the eyes of this little wonder...
Of this little Wisdom.

Insufficient Funds


Am I not sufficient?
               Fulfilling, Satisfying?
Am I not attractive?
              Beautiful, Pretty?
Am I not intelligent?
              Clever, Sharp?
Am I not funny?
              Comical, Hilarious?
Am I not kind?
              Thoughtful, Considerate?
Am I not humble?
              Modest, Unpretentious?

Perhaps,
              I am not any
Because you inject me with the feeling that
              I am not plenty

Artificial Bae

Unable to breath
My heart clenched in your palm
Such a beautiful hurt
In a time all wrong
 
A master of hours
I wish it were me
It is you
For whom my heart beats
 
To the rhythm of a song
All its own
With a cadence unmatched
I'm left alone
 
I have created in my mind
A man who in time
Would requite a divine love
A divine love like mine
 
That which parallels
The immensely intense
Unadulterated love
That I've felt ever since

Let's Talk About It

Let's talk about the beef
Let's talk about the streets
Let's talk about the grief
Let's talk about the bleak
 
Let's talk about all the things that these people never see
 
Let's talk about the pain
Let's talk about the strain
Let's talk about the gain
Let's talk about the strange
 
Let's talk about the things that we say we're going to change
 
Let's talk about destruction
Let's talk about corruption
Let's talk about production
Let's talk about reconstruction
 
Let's talk about all the ways that we as a people can function
 
Let's Talk About It

False Security

If I could turn back the hours
I'd turn it to three
To a place in time
When my heart was complete

My heart was full
And your love was a drag
It was some of the best dope
I had ever had

But chaos and confusion
both ensued
It soon became clear
I was being abused

As your bag lady
I had allowed it
I took you on that high
I was your pilot

While coming down
As we made our descent
It was increasingly clear
It was you I resent

So, unto you I
Bid my fairest farewell
For it was you that waged war
May you burn in hell

Cheating: Common Misconceptions

CHEAT (v):1.) deceive somebody: to deceive or mislead somebody, especially for personal advantage
2.) be unfaithful: to have a sexual relationship with somebody other than a spouse or regular sexual partner

In light of these definitions it’s safe to say that someone who commits such acts is a cheater so why is it then that I stumble across people who seem to have come up with their own definition for the word? I’ll tell you why, because these people are idiots to say the least.

I’ve had people go so far as to tell me that it isn’t cheating if you and your significant other are in different area codes. Are you kidding me?! But wait, I’ve only had men tell me that nonsense. Aaah, yes, that explains it! Continuing, I’ve also heard that it isn’t cheating if you guys have never had sex but you’ve engaged in other sexual activities which include but are not limited to: kissing and fondling. BULLSHIT. It’s all considered cheating. If you’re in a relationship and on a date with someone (other than your partner) who you’d like to be more than just your friend then it’s cheating--I don’t care how you slice it.

What I can’t understand is why these women (and men but more so women) are so quick to run back to these men after they’ve blatantly disrespected them and showed how much they don’t give a muthafudge. WAIT, I know why, because "he loves me" so it's okay.

(to be continued)…

In other words...

This is a translation of all the most common things that guys say. You know how whenever you're having a conversation with a guy and he says one thing but you're not sure if it's genuine? Well this is what he really means:

  • When are you going to come visit me?
IN OTHER WORDS: When are you coming over so I can try to have sex with you?

  • Whatever happens happens.
IN OTHER WORDS: I would like sex to happen and if it doesn't what will happen is I will eventually stop talking to you.

  • I'm not ready for a relationship.
IN OTHER WORDS: I'm not into you enough to make you my girlfriend but I'm always open to sex.

  • I'll call you.
IN OTHER WORDS: I won't call you and if I do it'll be for my own benefit.

  • You're like a sister to me.
IN OTHER WORDS: I am in no way interested in you on a sexual level. We're just friends but I'm a moron who doesn't know how to say what I mean.

  • I can't give you the attention you deserve.
IN OTHER WORDS: I'm a really crappy person who has his own best interest in mind.

  • I don't like everyone in my business.
IN OTHER WORDS: I'm a sneaky liar and cheater (if given the opportunity).

  • (in response to "what are you doing?") Thinking about you.
IN OTHER WORDS: I wasn't thinking about you but I need to make sure I have you just where I want you.

  • Stop being scary.
IN OTHER WORDS: Stop being so difficult and let's just have sex. And oh yeah, I'm an idiot with poor persuasion techniques.

  • I love you.
IN OTHER WORDS: I love how you love me.

disclaimer: Now, don't get me wrong he may actually be sincere when he says any of these things but as history has shown me 8 times out of ten he really means something other than what he's saying. It's up to you to note and study carefully his actions so you can properly determine whether or not he's an "in other words" type of guy.
*if you feel that I have left out any other common lines please tell me and I'll gladly add them. Oh yeah, and follow me on twitter http://twitter.com/just_shanelle.
