Excuse me Miss, could I ask for your permission

Just to speak to you in private, with no break or intermission

See I couldn’t help but notice you look down and confused

It’s written all on your face, you’ve been hurt and misused

It may be none of my business but it’s all of my concern

When a woman of your caliber can’t seem to ever learn

Or better yet comprehend the meaning of your existence.

Superficial Relationships have left your heart missing

What it needs to maintain or better yet for survival

Infatuated at first sight

In “LOVE” upon arrival

You convinced your girlfriends and maybe even your mother

All your sister has to say is “Tell me he has a brother!”

Cuz he looks so good

And his dress code’s right

So you don’t even care when he don’t call all night

Or when he comes home drunk and you KNOW you weren’t missed

And when he kisses you, there’s someone else’s breath on his lips

See you think just because he hasn’t LEFT that he’s THERE

When in fact you know he’s been gone for MONTHS and you don’t care

And now the days grow long and the future looks dim

‘Cuz you only go out if it’s ok with him

Am I Right??

You look at me and ask how I read inside your heart

When in fact it was written on your face from the start

So Pardon The Interruption

And fear not my intentions

But maybe I misread you or at least you failed to mention….

ARE YOU HAPPY??”

What changed this month? my relationship status. What do i hope will change next month? i hope i will spend more time focusing on my wants, my needs, my dreams, my fears, my goals. 

i tried finding happiness with someone. then i realized that you cant be happy with someone else if your not happy with yourself.  so in turn - i am soul searching. where i’ll end up - who knows. will i ever be loved again - who knows. but in the end - all ive really got in this world is me, myself, and i.  i need to be happy too. and i forgot that. 

“THANK YOU

to truly express my gratitude it would take me a lifetime 
And Even though i may not say the right things at the right tine 
You must know your impact upon me is immeasurable. 
And the union between us was inevitable. 
I knew that when I met you, which is why I couldn’t let you. 
Get away…so here you’ll stay. And for that I’m thankful. 
But saying those words doesn’t  begin to explain 
The ways in which my life you’ve changed. 
From beginning to end and back to beginning. 
You free me from failure. You free me from sinning. 
For all of my shortcomings an apology I will make full. 
But for the rest of my life I’m eternally grateful. 

THANK YOU. ”

so much has changed in the last few days … change for good. change for bad. well i dont want to say bad. because its not. but change for the unfortunate. i used to be afraid for change. i used to hate when people would change up the every day motions. but now, im not so afraid. im more excited. excited to see what the change brings my every day life. for a long time ive become someone that i dont even know. i thought it was the “new me”. and while a lot of it was a maturing me, i still made decisions and did things that Danielle wouldn’t do. i dont regret a thing. in fact if i had to do it again id do it the same way. who knows what the future will bring. for the first time in my life im open minded. im going to have a positive outlook. and while im unsure about a lot and most definitely afraid, im not afraid to the point where i wont venture out. its time to spread my wings and fly. where ill land, who knows. but i got to find my way. got to.
