longevitys apart

You and I, we don't talk anymore. You left and we went our separate ways. You didn't give me much time to soak it in. You told me one day in advance you were leaving for good. But so much time has passed now that even the bad memories have become good ones. And despite what the rest of my family says, I know you're not a bad person. You loved me no matter what I did. But it's sad to say that through the years you and I became more like friends than family. I'm thankful though. Because of you, I'm the man I am today.

"Leaving me was probably the best thing you ever taught me."

Maybe one day, we'll kick it again, Dad.

delude

I'm the type to be straight up when something is bothering me. But what if that something was a friend who lied directly to you, and thought that you didn't know the truth? Would it be better to confront them and put the friendship at risk, or keep it to yourself and hope they change their ways? I guess it's all a matter of opinion.

Today, I chose to keep it to myself.

push on

This is the realest shit I've ever wrote, I'll say it with my soul.
We all spend time on things that break too easily, like people.
Friends they come, and they may go,
but from each you'll learn and grow.
Mentality is the game, don't ever lose the grip of your sanity,
because friends will hurt you more than your enemies.
Don't let it bring you down though it's just how that shit works,
put your heart out on the pedestal and pull it back when you get hurt.
Gotta learn from your mistakes, it's what'll make you stronger,
from heartaches to heartbreaks, gotta keep reaching higher.
Don't ever lose your aspect, the things that you prospect the most,
make your dreams reality, and that's when you'll discover the beauty,
of what life could be.

define: express/emotion

I look at myself to the man I shaped up to be,
and can't help but remember who I used to be.
Everything I'm going through is like a book: beginning, middle and end.
And time is my worst enemy, and my best friend.
So much shit happened, so much shit has changed,
been through the chapter and flipped the page.
Now, I can't help but realize that all the bad shit is behind me,
and what's important is the future I make/believe.
Gotta maintain that state of mind, pray and be blessed.
You only live once, so live life to the fullest.
