Humanity's Siblings
Dear Sister,
If by chance you find yourself standing in the middle of a ball room, dressed in rags, soul exhausted.
Were you even invited? How the hell did you get here?
Layers of beautiful people circle about you.
Laughing, poking, provoking you to respond to their talk and chatter.
It's just ok, let your internal need to defend yourself grow numb.
Be grateful for their lessons.
Matter of fact, thank God for them.
A little deeper?
Thank God for loving you enough to invest people's time to help you grow....

My Worth
My worth is merely on a post it note
that says, "You are amazing."
My worth to others,
that is.
My worth in myself is
even higher than that,
I feel.
But my worth to others
is like
a birthday card,
collected in dust
eating away in my closet,
that I need to throw away.
It means nothing.
And it is nothing.
I'm supposed to feel anger or sadness or anything at all.
But I feel exhaustion.
Exhaustion of a life
where I don't know how I ended up here.
Paling through a dream ...

The Song Of The Moon
The moon will sing a song for me and you.
Despite all the choices you had.
You chose me,and I shouldn't feel bad.
The moon watched us,sunshine glow.
Light breeze,moonlight flow.
When the moon sings,I sing too.
I loved you more than the sun.
More than the moon,stars.
More than anything else.
And reality won't be false.
Because you chose me before we met.
I walked down the path,rainy day,my hair wet.
The sky was dark,as we feel a spark.
I shine brightly within the moonlight.
The one that gives me will...

RESTORING YOUR BALANCE
How do restore your balance when you start to feel drain, and your energy levels are at a all time high. 🤔 Yet you need to sustain your own personal thoughts, on so many levels of subconsciousness. NOW that I have your undivided mind attention. I want to explore your deepest thoughts as you relax your mind, and inhale and exhale bringing the calmness to your own mind, as you breathe and picture a place of TRANQUILITY. For it is necessary to concentrate, on the sound of your own voice, softly talking whispers like the wind within your ears. Now I want you to picture this frame of a...

Sugarcoat
verses]
The same old recipe,
This is how it’ll go:
You’ll call me A-to-Z
I won’t get a word in, never.
It’s just a puzzle piece, yeah
Bet you believe it tells you everythin’
Only if you knew, you wouldn’t believe...
[pre-chorus]
So,
You be callin’ me your honey,
But I know that at the parties,
You bet her type tastes so good
Tell me that you really want me,
Could be in it for the money,
It’s alright ‘cause you love me…
[refrain]
Sugarcoat,
Won’t you tell these...

Forgiveness!
By Stanley Collymore
Forgiveness in itself is a thoroughly
commendable quality, but quite
indisputably and absolutely
understandably doesn't come that easily to
many people. And evidently expectedly so!
Specifically when most unwarrantedly, the
pain, utter embarrassment, and obviously
crucially also, the clearly debilitating, and
its actually accompanying and invariably
vastly, dispiriting humiliation that sprung
from what was quite callously; spitefully,
malevolently, and literally hurtfully done;
predictably...

The ingenuity of Hope!
By Stanley Collymore
Hope is the invisible but all the
same the evident, pertinent
and very highly relevant
thread that intuitively binds all our human
aspirations together; essentially whether
these are literally achievable, or actually
and discernibly, just pleasant fantasies.
The optimistic mechanism, that clearly
very instinctively, drives us individually
to hope for and obviously too, want to
crucially acquire, more promising and
far...

The epitome of really caring is the altruistic act of voluntarily giving and not demanding!
By Stanley Collymore
Doing the job that one is voluntarily in
and similarly also being paid to do
is really a highly commendable
venture by any genuinely objective analysis
and adjudication! However, though, clearly
when that same individual distinctly goes
beyond, as it were, the normally requisite
call of duty and then, in doing so literally
simply admirably enhances not only the
basic prospects, but quite similarly also
the actuality of circumstances crucially
relevant and pertaining...

Dear Better Half
If you could see what im trying to show you...
When I look at you, I actually cry, I cry inside because you think you don't make me happy.
I'm screaming how I love you over the chaos of this war on myself that you did not start, yet all you reap is my tears and misunderstanding.
If I could do it all over, I would've done it better...all of it.
If I could've seen my blessings in the future while stuck in an abusive parent situation as a child..I would've tried harder and instead of hating myself because she spewed hatred at me, I wouldve loved...

Death the independent and simply impartial arbitrator!
By Stanley Collymore
Death is the inevitable arbiter of
our earthly existence; a state
of affairs actually against
which, following its objective decision, no
one regardless of their station in life, can
either individually or otherwise, simply in
league, evidently collectively with others
actually challenge let alone overturn the
actions it has specifically and decidedly
taken. And for all those who're very self
servingly as well as similarly thoroughly
and conceitedly enamoured with all...

YOU GOTTA DO RIGHT
They say know One is sent to you by chance or accident, for if you want a do right man or a do right woman, you gotta do right and be able to articulate your needs. YOUR wants and your desires to be able to share, your thoughts and insight and emotions and your strength and courage and perseverance. For your commitment must be fore coming, with consistency and real communications with honesty and truth and trust. For sure there will be a time in our lives, that we all have to learn to walk away, from the negativity of the norm of what someone thinks. THAT you are willing to accept. Yet that's...

THIS ISN'T ABOUT ME
About what I have been going through since 2021 with different stages of cancers prostate cancer and kidney function and tumors and lung cancer 🙏 This isn't really about me it's about you 🤔 YET my real question to you is WHO DO YOU TURN TOO, when you are lost and confuse and afraid. AS you sit alone within the very confinement of your four walls 🧱 that you call home 🏡, as it is there where you can find yourself in peace with tranquility. For the betterment of your life for it is necessary, to be able to understand, that no day. WILL never be the same...
