Success Loves a witness, but failure can't exist without one

We all have our own success. If it's losing 5 pounds to winning the girl of your dreams. Believe it or not, many if not all of us want to feel appreciated, everyone wants to feel connected to someone. When we have these successes, there is no audience to clap for you and say "Hey, you did a great job." When you fail and at times can be the lowest point in your life, all of your witnesses are there. Condemning you! People want remind you how much you fucked up. It's like saying "I am sorry but..." The witnesses are like the word but, they negate the good in you and what you have done prior to your mishaps in life.

Self First is not so vile a sin as Self Neglect by: Cecile Spence

Self first is what they say.
Some human o'd on it,
The apparel they wore,
The shoes on their feet,
Their body they worship,
No one is wonderful as I am,
From their attitude, you could tell,
How they indulge in themselves.
On the other hand there is self neglect
Truly it is really a sin,
Once they got married,
becomes mothesr or fathers
on themselves they let go.
Especially for the ladies
Do not think for a nano-second
Husbands will settle for less
Sitting on the couch everyday,
Watching soap opera,eating potatoe chips
gain weight, becomes obese
Fuck that! that is not cool
I agree, he is definately going to flee,
Yea old age fades beauty,
Don't let your looks fade because of your neglect
Be prompt, poise and immaculate
Man loves a clean attractive woman.

"I Make the road. I draw the map. Nothing happens to me...I'm the one happening"

You have no say...
No input in my destiny...
This is where I'm suppose to be.
I stand alone, making my way through life.
People may come and go but all I have is me.
There is no rehearsal in life.
And yet "life is a stage and we're all just the actors.
So before you look at me get yourself together before the curtains close on you....
To me, you must create originality of being your true self.
I AM A God (or the creator in me) to make things happen with effort nothing would fail,
nothing can happen to me.
I AM INVINCIBLE.

Your heart is my Pinata by:Cecile Spence

When I saw you
I thought you were all the same
I did not expect the unexpexted
I have been there twice,
Had it! with them,
On my sign no entrance
You crept in
And proven me wrong
I was out for revenge
You brought me suspense
I thought you were the exact
You came with a difference
Thinking you were false
Low and behold you were genuine
Within me there was sadness, anger, frustration
No one could endure
A ticking bomb waiting to explode
You stared me in the eye
how transparent,
Locked behind a gate , no key
But...honey you release me
proven to be the one
Your heart is my pinata
Filled with none sour candy but sweet

Love that is given... never is returned by, Arkim DeBerry

The Love that you show will never be returned equally, no matter how long you wait for it
You can love someone no matter how they treat you, and await for that day to come
when they treat you better, or love you back, only to be disappointed.
You go on and on putting every effort forth showing affection, doing the little things
(candle light dinner, pampering) proving your love and committment, but in the end
it's their decision to return it.
The only time you can guarantee equal treatment from someone is when you treat them bad<
only then will they be happy to do the same and return it.
Why is this? is it because of a past disappointment (slight).

I make the road... I'm the one happening by Arkim DeBerry

I make my own way, good, or bad based on what I do.
I once heard "Man makes his own Luck."
I am the focus of my own attention, so whichever road I go down
I choose it, and whichever route I take to get there, I choose it.
To say some other human is the cause of my victory of defeat is to
give them autonomy over me, thus enabling them to cause my victory, or defeat.
I did that, been there, or is it "I've been there, done that,"
however it goes I am what's happening, as I once heard
"Either you are going my way, or you are in my way,"
but know I am the Chef, Architect, Pilot, and Captain of my own ship,
so come with me or watch me, because to me "I 'm the one happening!"

Love that last... is never returned, by Arkim DeBerry

"The love that last the longest is the love that is never returned"










The love that you show will never be returned equally,


no matter how long you wait for it.


You can love someone no matter how they treat you,


and await for that day to come


when they treat you better,


or love you back;


only to be disappointed.




You go on and on putting every effort forth, showing,


affection, and doing the little things (candle light dinner, pampering)


poving your love nad committment,


but in the end it's their decision to return it.


The only time you can guarantee equal treatment from someone,


is when you treat them bad:


only then- will they be happy to do the same and return it.




Why is this? i sit due of a past disappointment?
