What Lonely, Hopeless Alphas Don't Understand
Imagine this: you're living alone, you begin to think of companionship and simply not being alone. Your goal is to be honest about who you are and to be accepted for the shortcomings you are working towards fixing. So, alone you stay, making a space you can love so you may have one to learn how to love yourself, and you learn. Little by little, you learn how to make yourself feel secure and safe. You do so by being financially responsible enough to live a life that gives you freedom to do what you want. Your bills aren't just manageable, they're almost nonexistent with no credit card balances...

Gamble at Your Own
We watch and listen more than speak
Only pretend
When we seek truth
Through blatant deceit
Don't fault me
For playing
The way you wanted to play me
Please
Understand
It's you
Definitely
Not me
And let's face it
You were beat
Haha
I know who I am
Naw
I really don't
But I don't pretend
Boast
About
Doing the most...
Humble intellectual
Effectual
Non masculine
Who's masculine
Comes out when
It's needed...

Don't Ignore the Flags. Damn.
I speak on what I observe
Do not take it personally
I do not speak as such
To be taken so critically
Personal experience
Is not what makes up my philosophy
For such data
Cannot be used
To develop any theory
Encounters are rudimentary
Illogical in all empirically
Composed evidence that should actually be taken seriously
You criticize the words I breathe
Claiming I would dare speak for thee
I tell all
Explicitly
Not withholding honesty
Concurrently ...

The V Story
My curiosity peaks for this unknown
Wandering thoughts on what lies past this door
Mind riddled with new beginnings and endings
Lust rattles my soul as my imagination takes control
Excitement takes over my body yet fear takes over my mind
Hedonistic fantasies playing on repeat
Knowing that this waiting game will end
To be stripped of my last piece of innocence.

For a good time, don't call her!!
For a good time don't call her
She's never ever happy and that's the truth
She rarely cracks a smile, cause she has one tooth
At my expense, the priciest meal is what she'll pick
Will then complain the food made her sick
Never once will she be sincere or say thanks
Only time she looks happy is when I'm emptying out my bank
She'll flirt but never put out
Then again, she only has one tooth in her mouth
Dropped her off, told her to lose my number & name
Told her she was rude, inconsiderate & lame
For a good time, DO NOT CALL HER!! ...

Brisk walk, windchill
Leaves paint shadows on the sidewalk
A small flock of sparrows flit away
Avoiding my footfalls
A book tucked under my arm
I think of you fondly
It's the distance
Sending signals across the pond
Marred by fatal crossings

Nice Guy Chronicles X
Each love interest
Has left an impression on me
Each one has challenged
My ideals in some form
Yet such is the nature of experience
I don't know whether it was the result of being in a big city
Or whether life felt extra ironic towards me
But I got to a point in which I had no crushes
I had some kind of encounter
With each of them
Now we all know crushes don't always pan out
But they're fun to have as a reminder
That some part of you finds others attractive
My sense of...

Easy
Like riding a bike
Like slipping on a pair of flip flops
Like making a cheese sandwich
Like wrapping up in a warm blanket
Like laying on a comfy bed
Like taking a drink of water
Like putting on a glove
It would be so easy
All the parts are already there
The firm foundation has already been laid
There is always work to do
But it would be so easy
Like slipping on a pair of flip flops
Like making a cheese sandwich
Like wrapping up in a warm blanket
Like laying on a comfy bed
Like taking a drink of water
Like putting on a glove
It would be so easy
All the parts are already there
The firm foundation has already been laid
There is always work to do
But it would be so easy

Ready
I'm ready
To do this
To pull the trigger
To jump in the deep end
To dive in head first
To shift into the next gear
To level up
To move to the next phase
To go for an upgrade
To get a promotion
To step up
To leap without a net
To pick up my passenger
To take a first class flight
I desire to do this
But I'll never push
It may be hard to take the challenge
It may be hard to remain status quo
As long as you're not ready
I'll stay put
Put the gun away

Feelings
Often as poets we write as we see…
I don’t consider myself a poet I just write to write
But, maybe, just maybe, I write to feel
Hmmmm….maybe that’s what we are as poets after all?
Here is how I “feel” today.
You made me fall for you
Gave me your all
And then you took it away
And let me fall
I didn’t know what I did
How did I fail?
You said it was nothing
But still you bailed
My tears are still flowing
And all over you
I want this day to end
But I still want you...

Our One Thing In Common
Saw Alison on the phone.
She's talking to her sex addiction sponsor.
