Realizing

Finally coming to the realization that my imperfections make me an unfit mate for her, causes me to open my eyes to all of the beautiful women around me.

One in particular, an amazing young lady that sparks my fancy. From the first time I met her, I wanted to get to know her more. I was instantly tossed into my 'shy guy mode'. A state where I try not to look her in the face, consciously avoiding staring too deeply in her eyes.

She laughs at all of my jokes, and asks me any little old question, just to make me feel smart.

She's even interested in my business. Girl's are never interested in what I do for a living, they look at me like I'm weird, just because I don't work for anyone and I have an ounce of ambition.

I definitely hope she doesn't leave too soon, because I would love to take it there.

Take Care.

Feelings.

I’m just sayin’, you could do better
Tell me have you heard that lately
I’m just sayin’ you could do better
And I’ll start hatin’, only if you make me.

“A boy has the right to dream”

There are endless possibilities stretched out before him.
What awaits him down the path,
he will then have to choose.
The boy doesn’t always know.
At some point the boy becomes an adult
and learns what he is able to become
Joy and sadness forever will accompany this
He is confronted with a choice.
When this happens as he bids his past farewell in his heart
Once a boy becomes an adult he can no longer go back to being a boy
The boy is now a man.
Only one thing can be said,
“A boy has the right to dream”
For those endless possibilities are stretched out before him.
We must always remember, all men where once boys…


This poem, has been at my life's core, since I was 11 years old.
