The light rejuvenates our spirit but it is in the darkness where we find our strength. If you are weak in darkness,

you haven't been there long enough.

YOU GOTTA LOVE, BECAUSE LOVE IS THE STRONGEST ENERGY WE HUMANS POSESS. IT'S SO EASY TO EXERCISE ANGER, ARROGANCE AND HATE BUT LOVE...LOVE REQUIRES HUMILITY AND RESIGNATION OF THYSELF. STRENGTH CAN ONLY BE FOUND IN LOVE. WE ARE AT OUR STRONGEST POINT WHEN WE ARE LOVING; HENCE WHY WE ARE WILLING AND ABLE TO SUFFER FOR THAT WHICH WE DO LOVE...SO, IF YOU FIND YOURSELF IN NEED OF STRENGTH REMEMBER, YOU POSESS ALL THE ENERGY AND STRENGTH WITHIN...WE NEVER REALLY LOSE LOVE, WE JUST CHOOSE TO IGNORE THE FEELING...SO STOP LOOKING AND START FEELING...AFTER-ALL WE CAN ONLY SEE WHAT WE PROJECT AND PROJECTION TRAVELS FROM THE INSIDE OUT.

My Love's A Drifter

Take a closer look
A closer look inside of me
there through my eyes it can be seen
all my fears; the worries I suppress within
Dare to stare
Stand there...
long enough to see me
many aren't able
I've been broken in a thousand pieces every time...
cuz every time, I'm faithful.

You never stand too close cuz I'm contagious
all this love I have I can't repress
you're bound to catch it
Love...
my heart's a mess

Is that why you always leave me?
that why keep your distance?
I ask; why do you leave me everytime?
Shattered
broken in a thousand pieces?

Love why do you love to leave me?
Why do you love me till it hurts?
Is it that you love to hate me?

If it's my love you seek why do you love to leave me?

Bullshit Propaganda!

I get consumed in independence...
"girl power" is what we're calling it today
strength not measured in the form physicality
we're only as strong as our ability to "walk away".
Women are acknowledged in a positive light only when they hustle 9 to 5
respect never shed on those grinding graveyard shifts concealed as dancing hustlers of a party life
Social networks portray glamorous images of what should be idolized
you got have it all together, just for someone else to recognize
and so, we all have it all together
because "birds of feather flock together"
we all livin, we all winnin and we don't care how much it is...
fuck the price, we spendin
She cakes wit her new cake, he rakes wit his new single
we all celebrities and rappers and we never fall in love, we "mingle"
Forget reaching for a hug during harder times
affection is now just visible weakness
and we can't ever let em think we're leak links
Nowadays we gotta hide when we're in pain
Facebook, Instagram, Twitter accounts deactivated cuz no longer can you make it rain.
I guess i got a different prespective and I'm not ashamed to express it
I can accept it, I'm unafraid to confess it
it's all bullshit propaganda and we're all fucked up in one way or another!

True Love Cannot Be Moved

I say this to you, if your heart doesn't want to burn a hole through your chest then it definitely aint' love.
To follow love is to follow pain, to follow sorrow and embrace the frozen heartache as your fiery heart melts it all away resisting its liquid form and not allowing itself to be put out. This my dear, is love. Love knows no pain because we are the temples built to consume it. Love is simply the energizing force that passes through us leaving just enough inside so that our spirits follow steadily, unmoved right behind. True love only fears not being felt. True Love cannot be moved.


Tai Truth

So I realize I've been traveling a lot lately and I also realize doing so is part process of me finding myself. I am so humbled and grateful that God allows me to enjoy the luxuries of doing so however; I know there is a greater purpose than that of my own. I walk new streets of ancient struggle and capture beautiful flowers watered by sorrow. He stands there with his empty, white bucket that has been engraved with the dirt from his hands which massage Mother Earth daily. I wanted to simply walk into the ice cream parlor so that the rain wouldn't wet my hair... All he hoped was that the rain would fill his bucket. #another world! #so many of us are walking zombies :.( #humbled!

I  use to believe happiness was someone I had to search for

Then I believed happiness was someone who had to find me

but now...

now, I believe happiness is something I can only find within myself 

After all; how can we share what we don't have???
