I thought u

but it turned out
you were not what you seamed.
 
i thought u wuz real.

The Story of Me


I was born of struggle and I will die of struggle and in between I will continue to look for the reason God wanted me to occur while refusing to sink.

i think it was december


i think it was december;
there was a cold wisconsin wind
your love, i can remember
welcomed me like an old friend.


i remember it being cold,
‘cause we skated on the lake.
(the secrets that we told,
the love we used to make


the secrets that we shared
each filled with a kiss.
a love beyond compare;
that i truly miss)


on the first day the robins sang
God took you away.
now everytime i hear one sing,
i think of that day.


sure as there are stars above,
as far as i can remember,
i have never felt so loved.
i think it was december.

Just a thought

I just realized, I have 4 black friends in Brisbane Queensland, 1 black friend in Perth, and 2 black friends in Sydney. I know more black people in Australia than in the state of Oregon, and I live here in Oregon. And I hear from my friends in Australia more often than the 2 who live about 40 minutes away from me.
