Headphones in and I’m back to listening to music and I continue thinking to myself where did this all go to… The year 2011 ended horrible for a lot of people but very bad for me and thing’s went down hill from there, I lost my best friend, the doctor tells my mother she has cancer, I have a teacher who tried to make my life a living HELL. I try breaking away from all these things but how do break away when growing up you always had that black cloud hovering over your head like an umbrella through a terrible hurricane and your stuck out side in the rain with no one to let you in. I have cheating ex’s wanting to be with me AGAIN, girls who get around trying to be scooped up like vanilla and I just got told from a beautiful but guess what? I don’t care because like I said before I’ve been broken so many time the glass is easily broken and the shards from with have left my soul bleeding into a stage of giving up and the only lady I can have in my life now is my mother. She has been there for me from day one and just the fact of me knowing that my mom isn’t so well, makes me feel as its all over in my life but I have God here to keep me on a new path away from all these undesirables and things I cant keep and that’s you…

Growing up in a town where sirens became a new lullaby to my personage as I fell asleep every night, wasn’t easy. Sleeping with both eyes open wondering if someone’s trying to invite themselves over into the house taking everything you ever owned. The last turkey sandwich in the fridge leaving you with the back end of the stale bread you had for weeks because momma and pops cant buy a new loaf. Walking down the street at anytime was always a death trap so the best thing to do was run. Isn’t that the same thing? I’ve moved out now, but still fight struggles like fleas, the last thing I can remember in CC was that I witness “ [actors] get shot at like movie director”. Not only did Hova  do it but I have as well. Having enough froe me to say why does society have to be ignorant enough to take another black man off the streets when he was only heading home from a long day of work to take care of his kids and feed them that fresh loaf of bread ?

Damn I’ve been sitting in this Saturday School shit for the last hour. I woke up late due to late night partying and now I have to suffer because I over slept. If it wasn’t for that crack smoking street corner profit Mr. (Ms.) P I would be home sleep !!!

One day you’re here laughing, singing, dancing and bringing joy and your musical talent to the world then your in heaven singing with the greats in the beautiful mass choir. A daughter with her mother for 18 years and within 10 minutes of her 19th year she loses the closet thing she has ever had to her.. Not her clothes not her bed, her mother. Life is too short to be wasted and to short to hold grudges towards people that are or at least once closed to you. Beautiful and amazing entertainer, angel Whitney Houston took flight just last night and people are still fighting the fact she drown, took drugs etc. and not taking noted that young people are now dieing not just old people. Bad things happen to the best of us but you have to just get up and wipe the hatred blood the enemy has thrown down on you. Step into a church so live life and everyday like its your last and don’t hold grudges because one day you’re here the other with the most high and people usually don’t miss a good thing till its gone..

Careless World was just released and the song I have on repeat is Love Game. I lay here at nights and often think about that girl I would never mistreat which we had a “Love Game”. I loved her as much as a 50 year anniversary couple love each other. I want her back in my life but it’s like me wishing to have something that I will never have like a young baby who watches a Bugatti Veyron commercial and falls in love and fascinated with a fast car that in reality he can’t drive it any time soon. She was my other half my significant other who was always there for me but things change in a matter of two months. Now her heart is with this kid and there family and now I’m here writing about her and I’m pretty sure she’s sleeping not giving a fuck if I’m okay or anything… I’m out because tomorrow is whoop ass time and I’m not holding back anything.

Damn the struggles that goes on in my everyday life is too much to handle.. College coming up, firefighting in a few months, my mother has surgery like every week to get her chemo treatment and I’m on the verge of not graduating if I don’t pass the act/fcat in one month. It’s like as if I will never make it but I know by the grace of God I WILL walk the stage with my class of 12 in this coming June. I pray everyday for mommy to get better and I know that she will get there one day and I appreciate everyone as well praying but for you people that think I won’t make it… thanks as well

Sick and distraught are two things I have right now and all I need is that stuff that make you feel no pain and feel like your in the clouds far from everything that roams this place called earth and can be fluent with what’s really up and no not drugs but family with “ears” that are willing to hear you speak but the distraught part heals on it’s own. I’m healing up from all that’s going on in society, but there’s just that one thing you think about at times, who do you run to when you have people running from you? Life is a puzzle that most of us still cannot find the pieces to attach together. Some can be sorted out but there is always that one piece that’s missing from the bunch. The future of tomorrow is very debatable and many people have realize that our children will have a hard life because in the time that we are teens we struggle with a lot but when our kids come into play their game will be over with the score : Society 1 - Youth 0.

The end is near but when your near doesn’t really mean your at the end. That same little boy who left his father to die in the liquor store was me and the father was you. My father is still alive and well but to know that you can have someone who was once there with you at your hip is gone to someone else who doesn’t treat them like you do is detrimental to watch but sometimes people need to set foot in their own fire, step foot into the world because when your all alone at night who can you run to for the soaked chest you once shed tears on ? Off doing greater things that a lot would love to see others accomplish in life. It was time for a change and reality hit me enough times for me to realize the time has come, and that time was up and I looked up at the clock and it read 5:42.

@StephJDryd: “@trebleMaker94: Saying goodbye to someone is the hardest thing a person can ever do.” funny cuz it only takes two seconds to say hello.

“@TrebleMaker94: @StephJDryd so true! You inspired me and @AlliPearce to write a book and that quote is definitely going in the book lol “

I appreciate you for reading this but this only a bridge to the end of a dark road…
