  • Happy 1st Birthday Christian

    Wednesday, March 19, 2008

    Opening presents and blowing out the candle on your cake
    These are all things in which you should partake
    On this very special day - your first birthday
    We can’t celebrate in the traditional way
    Instead, a cake I made of artificial flowers - blue and white,
    Will be left for you at your grave site
    Balloons will be sent to you up above
    With notes from your loved ones expressing their love
    A special m...

  • I survived

    Thursday, September 4, 2008

    I made this video and put it on youtube.  I just want everyone to know what happened, and make sure people ask for help.  Have a safety plan in place before you get desperate.  A safety plan has many layers.  From ways to calm yourself, to friends to call, crises line numbers, hospitals, mobile crises intervention.  Giving all your means to someone you trust.  Withou...

  • Healing After Heartbreak

    Sunday, October 19, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story

    I was trying to write something about someone that I am starting to like.  I was looking at a blank screen and the verses started coming.  I guess they came out this way because I am still fustrated because my stbx still hasn't severed ties with me but I want to be rid of her.  Either way, this poem came out and with a little editing it has a good flow to it.  Let me know ...

  • love come 2 me

    Monday, March 3, 2008

    i need the love of me
    to believe in only me
    so i can love thee
    in a more readily fashion
    my life loses passion
    when i sulk about the past
    people will be bad
    but i can choose the silent golden path
    to be happy to laugh
    yes i do feel sick and stressed
    it is hard to caress the sun
    but i am a new one
    who sees love as the kingdom
    i feel like we forsake ourselves
    for others to tell
    us how to live well
    sacrificin our ...

  • pressure point

    Tuesday, December 30, 2008

    new year in gear
    i feel the pressure
    is in mind
    time to let all out tonite
    i was feelin a bit down
    then i looked inside
    i felt blind inside
    i felt weak cuz i had an illness
    why did i feel such BS
    i am on DS
    gettin all this help
    yet i feel i have shit to prove to whom
    my mind is fragile like a woman's womb
    in need of love i talk to mom
    then i ask god why am i lettin on
    thoughts of despair
    found out i needed...

  • honesty

    Tuesday, November 25, 2008

    i am from new york city
    i face misery hostility
    still i can breathe
    i have big dreams
    like owning a piece of a home
    where i can have my family
    no need to live halfway
    i hate seeing day by day
    the ghetto life of pain and hate
    gotta make my wages
    so i can pay my rent
    and get off the stupid medications
    with hope faith and meditations
    bipolar i am for sure
    with prayer i will endure
    hate people tellin me i may be si...

  • they hate i play

    Monday, December 1, 2008

    we talk and gossip alot
    how much we got
    we brag to the point of no mercy
    a little money makes us greedy
    we ask god for forgiveness
    but  we hold on to negative seeds
    disabled and the poor suffer
    and all u say u need a lover
    we need to be thankful or lose our faith
    i meditate pray to end my tormented shame
    wish the world could change
    but if money brings u love
    then i am just gotta let u indulge in ur lus...

  • love is what we have

    Monday, September 22, 2008

    all this staring and lokin at each other like strangers
    is such an old adage i see as a hater
    i am real to me
    no need to attract nobody
    i am a somebody
    we need love
    not prescipition drugs
    love is us

  • Journal Entry for March 14, 2008

    Friday, March 14, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story

    Christian's first birthday will be here very soon and I am having a hard time with this. I have been trying to come up with ideas to make it a special day, but it's just not the same without him here. I am so upset that I won't get to see him blow out his birthday candle or open birthday presents. I recently received a very nice letter from the Univ. or Maryland School ...
