A LOVE SONG- PART2

(AFTER THE WOW)

He ran his fingers thru his hair and said:
Man, how come I never knew about your feelings
I had'nt a clue until today
I'm seriously shocked, stunned and completely blown away
I mean really we never entertained the thought of crossing
that invisible frienship line
we've never kissed as grown-ups and now your telling me
your idea of me and you is nowhere close to mine
your my homie, my buddy and a really special friend
this is a joke right, I'm being punked...ok I give up,you win
her face told it all: no joke,I'm dead serious, I'm not playin
the tears welled up in her eyes, can you feel what I'm sayin

She said:
so the dinners, the pictures, vacations that we took
the dances, the movies, we even shared are very first book (Dr.Seuss, of course)
and I bet you dont even remember are very first fight
we got so mad at each other, ok lets forget about that night
O remember the time your aunt Sara fell and her wig came off
it was wrong, but we laughed anyway
O and what about the time we left Sparkey in the car with a bucket of chicken
he left no crumbs, ate all the chicken, BONES AND ALL--(lol)
O and remember that day we, STOP IT- HE YELLED, I see what your doing
lets get back to the present and talk about this song
yes, some great times and memories because we've known each other for so long
and I love you back in a special kinda way
But you see, I'm getting married to Ingrid, in Vegas
we're leaving today------


BAM!!!!!--bet you did'nt see that coming (oooo it ain't over)
to be continued

IF I GOOGLED YOU

If I googled you, what would I see
on dislay, wide open
what would you share, pictures from years past
or perhaps your current achievements
or maybe nothing a big question mark
mind your business that's for me to know

If I googled you, would it be nothing but distruths
glasshouses and fancy cars hanging with the wanna-bee's
BE CAREFUL: Glass crashes when it's smashed
and fancy cars re-poed

If I googled you, I dont wanna see
my pictures
my words
my thoughts, all stolen by some hacking thief
good grief, my disbelief-- because it happened to me!

A LOVE SONG

A LOVE SONG (The Very Beginning)

(Yes, they know each other)

She wrote this man a love song, pouring out her heart
with trembling fingers and a million n one thoughts
she even used the "L word" which wasnt easy to do
for fear of a busted up heart, leaving it black and blue
she wrote about the future and possibly becoming his wife
scratched it out and changed it up and wrote about her life
she wrote about the good times and all the fun they had
she wrote about how the good times definately outweighted the bad
she wrote about being best friends, then she thought this can never be
they did kindergarten time together and now their both 23
she handed him the lovesong and was ready to runaway
he said, wait, where are you going, I need for you to stay
so she stood there frozen in time, one eye closed and a raised eyebrow
he read the words straight-faced, then smiled and just said WOW!


So what do you think was the outcome?
In today's world the word WOW has so many different meanings?
Do you think this is the response she was looking for?
Have you ever had a WOW moment, where your expectations were a different outcome?

Sometimes you can come at a person thinking your on the same page, only to find
out, for whatever reason, there page is written totally different. Then again
maybe they ended up together, forever, riding off into the sunset...........

A PARENT'S THOUGHTS

N MY NEIGHBORHOOD: When the doorbell rings, it's not a black kid or a white kid on the other side of the door, it's just a kid. The kids hang out, go places and have sleepovers. As a parent, it leaves a bad taste in my mouth to know that a kid is dead and the shooter is set free. Yes violence happens everyday all around the world, but still when something like this happens how are you suppose to feel?
As I read some of these post, I'll be the troublemaker and say (sometimes people have a tendency to say the most insensative things at the wrong time) people are hurting, dissapointed, confused, upset, --------(fill in the blank) and downright afraid for there children, please think before you speak. Your tired of hearing about it, you dont want to talk about it, it's because of this kinda attitude we are in the state we are in. They say it all starts at home, I had a conversation with mine and hugged him a little extra longer. I pray that none of us ever have to experience this type of senselessness, because in the blink of an eye your life could be changed forever.
If your a praying person, please pray for me and I'll do the same for you ---they say everything happens for a reason, I sure need some understanding, because this surely makes no sense...

(Rest easy Travon-The verdict was not guilty, but God know's the truth)......)

Music is Therapeutic

This one was inspired by me having to upload my music collection back on ITUNES after that bad thing that happened to me, I started at the beginning of June I just completely finished a few days ago. I take my music seriously :)

As a child I grew up with music in the house, mostly Jazz, R & B and the radio. So I guess that's when it all started and I will say I do like all genres. I still have all my albums and cassettes (which I still play every now and then).

You know when that song comes on the radio or that video comes on tv and you bite your bottom lip and start bobbing your head, making unexplainable faces and you need complete silence, because that's your jam and you just completely zone out.

True story, a few weeks ago I was in this store and at the time I was the only customer, when Benny and the Jets came on, well needless to say I was having a moment, the man behind the cash register told me I was welcome to stay and listen till the song went off, so I did. Next thing I know he's breaking it down to me and his co-worker---you were probably a little girl when this song came out, back in 1970 something, it was on the album ----, I seen him sing it live, man that was something to see. The man's face lit up (guess he was having a moment to) I walked out of the store with a smile on my face and feeling good.

Another time this song came on the radio, Treat her like a lady by the Temptations, I called a friend up and said listen---next thing I know we are cracking up laughing because we shared a memory of a crazy night of hanging out back in the day, I believe somebody fell :)

Or what about when you hear a song and it makes you think of someone who's no longer with us, all you can do is smile and cherish the memory.

In the process of uploading my music, why did I stop and listen to Brian Mcknight's - Anytime, he said Do I ever cross your mind- by the end of the song I was ready to book a flight and pay someone a visit (don't ask - still trying to figure out, what that's all about).

When I got to the T's, I stopped and listened to LOVE TKO - by Teddy P, this song helped me threw a really bad breakup many moons ago, after playing it about 20 times and a whole bottle of wine, he had me convinced Let it go, so I did, good looking out no regrets here. I can actually smile at that memory.

When I got to the Jazz, I just had to let it play real loud, something about that saxaphone get's me everytime.

Honorable mention, the Clark Sisters- You brought the Sunshine - even before they start singing, the beat, you know it's about to go down, next thing you know your singing Never was a Problem, I'm a witness, he'll make a difference in your life, to me they were the first (Mary, Mary)

I've done some of my best thinking listening to music---no matter what the situation, there's a song out there that applies. So today, whether your traveling, working, chillin or whatever you do, listen to some music it will make your day! P.S. Christopher Reeves is still superman to me------

THE MARY JANE FACTOR

She hosed him down like a dirty car on a sunny day
stumbled on that wedding band you were trying to hide
7 months of time she gave you, why
offering champagne dreams on a dollar tree lie
she never was given the option because you perpetrated a fraud
Damn, life is hard enough then to have to deal with this
There are alot of Mary Jane's in the world
some settle for the sake of being alone
nothing never just happens, really
not passing judgement, but how and why are the questions

As a society is this acceptable behavior
kudos to the good guys that don't misbehave
that stay in their lane and don't stray away
Not one to tell you, what's wrong or what's right
but I was always told: What's done in the dark,
eventually comes to the light----

MISS YOU FOREVER

I CRIED AND CRIED WHY, FORGET ABOUT YOU NEVER
I JUST COULDN'T BELIEVE IT, DEVASTATION SET IN
TO KNOW THAT I WOULD NEVER SPEAK TO YOU AGAIN
YOU CANT MAKE A PHONE CALL, YOU CANT SEND A TEXT
I CANT GO ON WITHOUT YOU, HAVE NO IDEA WHAT COMES NEXT
PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME, SOMETIMES THE PAIN IS SO BAD
MISSING YOU LIKE CRAZY, FEELING ANGRY, SAD AND MAD
BECAUSE YOU HAD TO LEAVE ME, I CANT SEEM TO GET IT TOGETHER
I'LL ALWAYS KEEP YOU NEAR, BECAUSE THE MEMORIES LAST FOREVER
WISH WE HAD MORE TIME TOGETHER BEFORE YOU HAD TO LEAVE
I LOVE YOU AND I MISS YOU, THIS YOU CAN ALWAYS BELIEVE
GUESS I BETTER GO NOW, HAD A FEW THINGS I WANTED TO SAY
JUST WANTED YOU TO KNOW THAT I WAS THINKING OF YOU TODAY
SO R.I.P DEAR LOVED ONE, YOUR AN ANGEL NOW WITH WINGS
I KNOW YOUR WATCHING OVER ME AND DOING ANGEL THINGS
I'LL SEE YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE ONE DAY, IN A DIFFERENT PLACE
AND WHEN I GET THERE I'LL BE LOOKING FOR YOUR SMILING FACE.
BUT UNTIL THAT TIME COMES, FORGET ABOUT YOU NEVER
JUST KNOW THIS ONE THING, I'LL BE MISSIN YOU FOREVER...


THIS ONE IS FROM MY BOOK----
