Worlds apart.

We live in the same America yet live different lives.

It's supposed to be equality for all.

However, the all part hasn't seemed to kick in yet for a few.

In your America we are all one.

In my America that be further from truth.

In your America the system is just.

I my America the system does not us.

In your America all lives matter.

In my America mine does not.

The writing's has been wall.

You choose to call it art.

This how I can be your next door neighbor but still be wolds apart.

Seeing is believing

 

My cites under siege.

My cites under siege.

I see war.

I see suffering.

I see a problem.

I stare out my window and all I see is suffering.

Then then glance in my mirror and all I see is me.

My cites under siege.

My cities under siege.

My city needs answers.

My city needs a solution.

My city needs me.

Surrender

Your worrying about things that haven't even happens yet. 

Yes, it could go wrong but it could also go right.

Trust the process.

The battle is indeed adjoined but it is not your fight.

Let the universe work it out.

Stop stressing over situations that you can not control.

Take a deep breath and let it all go.

Night shade

 

It comes without warning and consumes all its path by shrowding it in it's ominous shadows.

The night can either peaceful or unruly.

Their's telling just how it play out.

The darkness it cast can be maddening.

However, its effects are usually temporary.

The night does linger.

The night does not stay.

Just as quickly as it came it will fade.

Nozone.

No pain.

No gain.

No excuses.

No let up.

No quitting.

No complaining.

No blaming

No hesitation.

No negativity.

No short cuts. 

No fear.

No second guessing.

Stick to the task at hand an watch all opposition disappear.

Still love?

Is what's good for the goose good for gander?

Why so glum?

What's the matter?

It was fine when you were getting your way.

Everything was roses and sunshine when you getting catered to.

Now it's not panning out and your too through.

The twinkles gone.

The shimmer has faded.

Was it ever love or was it only love  just as long as it suited you?

Do know what it truly looks like or how it truly feels?

Is your love fleeting or unconditional?

Love with everything you have or not at all.

Pressed

 

It's that ominous feeling you get right in your gut.

It stronger as the days grow longer.

Sometimes it can make you tremble.

Sometimes it make you shake.

Most of the time though, it's just what you need to make you great.

It shows up at the exact moment that you start taking time for granite.

It makes you reevaluate your vision and prepares you for things not working out in the exact you you planned it.

Recognize it.

Get aquainted with it. 

Embrace it.

Answer the door.

Your guest has arrived and they'll be staying indefinitely.

Who could this guest be?

You shouldn't have to ask.

I'll tell you anyway.

Its pressure.

Now get busy.
