I wish

I wish....
I wish my sadness would fade away
I wish that tomorrow would be today
I wish my heart didn't hurt so much
I wish that everything would fade....

Pain takes over and consumes entirely
I wish I could make it a separate part of me
I wish my sins would leave me alone
I wish that the grave was my home.

All of my wishes never come true
But I wish some of them did
I wish for happiness
I wish for peace of mind
I wish for success
I wish I could leave it all behind

I wish....

A Tired Knight

Sniper 1:Code Red

I think it is about time...
i think that I have reached the point where other people's stresses are going to HAVE to take a back seat for once. I have always thought of other people even when my own problems should have taken precedence. Well..... that time has passed and this time has arrived. I feel sorry for people that are going to call me cold-hearted, but that's the way that it's going to have to be. It's Code Red ladies and gentlemen, and in my book that isn't a good thing. no one's happiness will supercede mine anymore. This white knight has put on a new color, a new rage, a new set of problems. With that has come with new things to stress on. I am officially too old to console people anymore. I'm sorry.... I'm sorry if I have offended anyone, but that's how I have to be.

A Knight Enraged

Sadness

The things that I put myself through all for the purpose of someone else..... why, man, why? Why do this to yourself on a regular basis?? I don't know anymore. I'm going to have to take drastic measures.... if I have to stop helping people for a day or two to see how things work out, I'm going to. Right now, I really don't care about others at this point. I just had the worst morning, and it's my own doing. I hate the way this feels. I hate feeling that I am relapsing yet again. I need to figure something out before I cease.....

A Knight In Distress

The day, The memories...

Today.....

Today would've been a fantastic day, had he still been around. The weather is nice, the sun is shining, my allergies are acting up... All of these are other things that make this day good. My brother being alive, though..... that would have made this day spectacular. It's been four years and still it feels like yesterday. It still tears me apart to think back. I loved him so much. Maybe that's why I screw up now. Everyone that I have loved in my family has passed away for the most part: my cousin, my brother, my grandfather. Things that I can't change, just accept. But it's hard to accept pain, when all you want to do is love. To all, I say, don't be afraid to love because you never know when you won't get a chance to hear the response. The trend of the day is "I got time." Well, you don't. The time you think you have isn't really yours to count on. I thought I had time to tell my brother that I love him, but I had to speak to a casket instead. So now, I wander the borough, the city, looking for people who don't know how to love or don't love correctly. I feel that this is my new purpose now. I want to help people, but I need help. Where can I get it?

Where can I find someone like me? I had one, hell, I had several. Unfortunately, they aren't here anymore. VVIP doesn't understand the burden she's picked up because that's what I feel that I am nowadays. But I don't know anymore. I really don't. Help.....

My new child

I love children. I really do. I have always wanted my own, but my mindset wasn't adequately prepared. That was my thought until I was told that I was to be the godfather of Autumn. That little girl rekindled the fatherly fire that went out in my heart. God knew I wanted to love, and now I have an outlet. It's interesting how prayers are answered. Maybe I wasn't supposed to try and have my own. Maybe I should've waited. All I can do now is look back at the past and regret some of the things that I have done, but cherish the lessons learned. I will love this one, though. Sorry bro. I'm going to spoil her rotten. lol

Clutter

I'm reading a little book called The Complete Idiot's Guide to Decluttering. It talks about what I call the ECO method: Eliminate, Categorize, and Organize. This concept, they say, can b applied to anything. So, I wondered if it could be applied to relationships as well. We all have relationships in out lives that we can't let go of, so why not ECO our lives? Eliminate the people that will bring you down with negative energies and concepts. They usually step in and out of your life and cause a little mayhem when they return. They could be ex's, old friends, bad neighbors, or that "wrong crowd" that you always used to hang with. Categorize those people whom you do get along with. The neighbors that give good advice, the friends that stand by you and console, help and encourage you, the family members that help you to aspire your dreams, etc. Now, the interesting part is the Organizing part because you do have some people in your life that are helpful, but they can be a problem at some point in life due to your own feelings, their emotions, and other predisposing factors. Take your time and assess the people in your life, because you don't want to burn any bridges that you might need later. Lol, there I go rationalizing things again. If you have to burn a few bridges, do so because God will provide.

Fed up of things...

As my mind wanders and thinks a mile a minute, I speed through the random thoughts that brreze my cerebral cortex and for the most part, none of them are positive. I always seem to think of situations that I save the day and that's what consumes my mind. I am always hoping for some cerebral flatulence, a reprieve from my mental run-on into oblivion, but it usually doesn't come. School is starting to bore and frustrate me. I still feel like i put women, my sexual cravings, and pleasing others before my actual needs such as an education, personal happiness, etc. I feel lost within my own skin, in a desolate place where I am the only visitor, prisioner, warden, and judge. I don't know how to get out.

My brain has locked me in
trapped in the devices that lay within
Can't seem to find a way
to leave this dismal place.

Many have tried and many have failed. some have gotten close, but I don't know what to do anymore.
