Early morning rises as the birds sing their good morning songs, I can smell the strong aroma of the colombian coffee brewing in the kitchen. I hear his morning stretch and heavy steps walking down the hallway. As I peak out to say good morning, he’s already on the back porch feeling the cold breeze turning into the mid-morning heat. Cup of joe in one hand, marlboro light in the other, I kind...

It’s as if you listen differently when someone else puts you in your place rather than say, your parents. The tough realization hits you unexpectedly and you could only react in silence, story to the end of my evening. How could I be so blindsided by my own actions and not even notice? God damn, I feel guilty. Sure, my parents state similar concepts.. but because of the fact they are my...

b-supreme asked: Happy Valentines Day, Soul Mate! Oh and Drew needs a haircut so I told him about you. Not sure if he asked you yet. Lol
My career is about to begin.
Well, it’s official. In just a couple weeks, I’ll be off to the advanced six week program to finish my apprenticeship program. The six week course is the finishing course to get me on the floor taking my own clients. I was pulled aside yesterday by my manager and she mentioned to me that the presidents of the company believe that I’m ready to go to the six week course. I’m...

“I am an excitable person who only understands life lyrically, musically, in whom feelings are much stronger as reason. I am so thirsty for the marvelous that only the marvelous has power over me. Anything I can not transform into something marvelous, I let go. Reality doesn’t impress me. I only believe in intoxication, in ecstasy, and when ordinary life shackles me, I escape, one way or another....
Smoke and blood.
A ton of bricks just fell upon my chest, making it difficult to breathe through these small lungs. It’s sinking in, but it could be the last few cigarettes I just smoked in a row. I would assume that the news would hit me on the spot once I found out, but it’s taken me a few weeks. Knowing the exact date and time now, I’m caught in an emotional wrap that I can’t seem to...
Take a step back, take a moment.
Potentially blindsided by your outer surroundings, your future could be to your left, some peak of happiness could be to your right. Why ignore your peripheral and only focus on what is straight ahead? Take a step back and try to see what is around you, looking at the large picture instead of analyzing just a small section. Unknowingly, you might miss out on something superior to you that could...
I’d be a hypocrite if I said that it isn’t possible to fall for someone in a short period of time. But, I’ve learned that you can’t put time measurement on the growth of an emotional connection with a person. The way that person touches your skin, lays on your bare chest to listen to the rhythm of your heart, makes you secure about your insecurities. That unexplainable...
Normally, the defensive outbursts would occur for those are sensitive buttons to push, but I’m no child anymore to cry when someone picks on me. So early, you hit the spots that change my mood in an instant. Not knowing how to react, I shut down for a moment to really analyze the situation I was in.
In my head, “You’re right.”
You presented me with the hurtful truth,...
Anonymous asked: I'm glad things at home are finally coming together and it's nice to see that you're in a new relationship with someone who makes you happy. I can honestly say, that I'm happy for you. Hope all is well, Cheryl, but from what I'm seeing on your Tumblr... you're doing pretty remarkable. Take care and maybe I'll see you again soon. - A friend.
I couldn't be happier.
It may be cliche for me to even state that this year is for “new beginnings”, but I truly believe that this is the time where things fall into place and problems finally resolve. Along with my new relationship, ending of my apprenticeship, my family is coming back together.
The words that I’ve been waiting a year to hear has finally been spoken. His eyes have opened and his...
In a matter of a few weeks, he has taught me more about family values and regardless of the unfortunate events that happen, blood will always be thicker than water. Our lives have such similarities, he is able to open my eyes to things I’ve been so blind about and too stubborn to even take a peak. No one, even inside my family, has taught me that.
In a matter of a few weeks, he showed me...

Early morning dawn, the sun peaks through the blinds that don’t quite hold back all of the light. Peaking in to say, “good morning.” As a smile falls upon your face, you’re blessed to be awake. Half asleep, stumbling through the halls to make the first trip to the kitchen. Finding your favorite cereal, then sitting comfortably to watch your most cherished childhood...
I’m exhausted due to the animosity I’ve held so highly. Built up angst, my stubborn ways prevent me from attempting to break the ice even once. A couple days ago, my head was running towards directions where the destination ended up at a waterfall. Tear ducts swollen, rolling against my skin and splashing upon my chest. “What if I don’t try to resolve the problems?” I...

Temperatures slowly rise as each button is pressed upon my nerves. “Remember to never press the red button.” You’re like an annoying child in a room full of unlabeled buttons. Beginning stages of a raging fury, I lose focus. For my mind is attempting to comprehend the bull shit I’m listening to. An inner earthquake is starting to occur as we speak. Bones. Fingertips. Eye...

Stay tuned for the complete movie.
A broken bond that was once attached like the blood connects our genes. Secrets exchanged as branches of trust began to expand, creating new roots on our family tree diagram. One day, soul siblings. Next day, complete strangers. Reasonings hidden beneath my skin, it crawls with guilt. Seeping into my bones, mind-fucking myself that forgiveness will never be shown. Neglecting a conversation,...
