For as long as I could remember, I lived for someone else. Someone from a family member, a friend, a boss, co-worker, an opinion of a stranger, or even my ex... I've had boarders and limitations on my life. Maybe, from the places I traveled, down to my daily actions, careers, hairstyle, even the littlest … Continue reading Fresh Start

Temptations
Sometimes we get so caught up in things not meant for us, because that moment of temporary satisfaction is better than Netflix But when it’s over, when the moments of pain from left over memories no longer phases the heart, you’ll see, it was just the Devil’s muse, and you’ll be better off J.

The Woman
Let me be known as the woman, who never settled. The woman who became all the things she aspired to be and do the things she's always dreamed.

Savage
Oh, love!! You’re a beast. A savage beyond anyone’s control. I pray, the next time you make me embrace you, I stand tall in love, rather than on the ground humiliated because he wasn’t the one. J. Saunders

Conflicting Motives
Maybe it wasn't love. Could possibly have been hope filled with infatuation. This could be my logic providing excuses while my heart still skips beats for you. But we both know, you and I, are temporarily here. Filling in the void of wasted time, before one of us makes a decision and moves on. Maybe … Continue reading Conflicting Motives
