"Your passion was persistent."

"Well, you intrigued me at every instant."

Here's a part of my world;
explore it as you sort through it,
take a detour as you venture forward;
open up doors and unite it with yours
find just what you're searching for:

You are my world.
Find your act and own it;
*~Love~
so we never have to know what alone is*.

It's been an unforeseen road,
long and twisted and unsure;
but certainly has
lead me to a land that I adore.
You crossed my roads and
every day I want you more.
<3

Univeral Rules

1. No one in your life deserves a high horse no matter how much you think they do. Putting people on a pedestal pins too much pressure on a person. They'll let you down, or really you've let yourself down the second you put them up there; so just keep everyone equal. Expectations are only limitations; they don't deserve existence or else you deserve every emotion that comes as a result of having them.

2. Don't let anyone think more of you than you do of your own self. If you do, you give them all the power. Be the shit and know you are the shit; everyone elses opinion comes secondhand to your own.

3. Love. No matter what and no matter what anyone tells you about it. Formulate your OWN opinion of it and STICK TO IT. There is not one sole way to give your love and it does not always have to be romantic. Get a pet, hang out with a child, fulfill your passions, listen to mind-blowing "fuck-you" music, donate your time and volunteer. There are so many people in this world willing to welcome your love; don't waste your time on the fools that out rightly reject it.

4. Be a romantic but be realistic. Don't give second chances to someone whose made you cry your heart out all day or on a daily basis; they don't deserve it and you deserve more than them. You deserve the one person who never makes you cry or makes you cry only because you're laughing so fucking hard you can't help it. Find the one who carries you through your tears and converses through misunderstandings.

5. This one goes hand-in-hand pretty much with #4. Don't justify; it's never wise. Being put in the position of having to justify in the first place just shows that something is arry. What you must learn is rationalization and how to sympathize. Don't think off of your emotions but know if someone hurts you severely emotionally; they don't deserve a rationale or your justification of their actions. The moment you start justifying the hurt they caused to you just gives them an open pathway to do it again and again and again. You can sympathize and try to understand other people's thoughts, feelings, and emotions but NEVER let them jeopardize your own. AND NEVER ONCE TRY TO UNDERSTAND A LIE.

6. Absorb the fact that you NEVER move on, you carry on. It's survival of the fittest, not fitting into survival. Adapt, find your own path.

7. Live in YOUR OWN WORLD, no matter how "different" it may be from society. Develop your own opinions and stick to them until someone comes along with something else you can accept as legitimate. If they never come, fight for your own ideals. Don't back down if you truly feel your ideas are real.

8. Be your own person. If you live in your own world and you love it, NO ONE can ever penetrate it. It's yours. If you respect your self and the world you live in, people will react to you in one of two ways - 1.) they'll want to get close to you, they'll want to know you, they'll want you to teach them your secret but all you can do is open the door for them, they have to decide to walk through or 2.) people may envy you, put you down, swarm negativity around you; ignore them. They just crave to be as proud of their life as you are of your own. Teach them, help them, show them; just never succumb to them.

the beginning of my guidelines to life

A simple no reason "why not" activity

but when I dipped in, you lifted me.

We found our own segment of the planet

and here, we finally stand in it.

I made a wish

and it came true

that night life

knew just what to do;

love moved right through,

love moved right through you.

We happened to exist

at just a touch of our fingertips.

And I bet I see greener greens

than *anyone* has ever seen.

I know the skies shift different shades of blue

whenever I am with you.

"You actually came back,

you came back."

Darling, you say that as if I'd ever left.

How could I?

When our souls share a similar breath.

So what?

If We love with every heart beat.

I know you're just as intrigued

with these new avenues and streets.

Walk, run, dance

with me.

children believe while adults live naive.

philosophy

I don't believe anyone can be whole, alone.
There are people out there, your other half
waiting to show you their side of the world;
share with you a life that only together you can twirl.
And perhaps I'm just a giddy girl
when I finally feel something real in this world.
But I felt the atmosphere shifted
and with your love, I was gifted.
And this is just my appreciation, my reparation;
a realization that love is a life dedication.

Four open eyes are better
than only having two to see.
Man and woman,
look at the logic,
"pretty"
look at the pattern,
"an eloquent city"
look at the emotion;
"witty"
look at how seamlessly
it was meant to be.

They are the opposites and, together,
they dance around complete,
they bring out the hidden things
we are otherwise unable to see.

You make me aware of my body
like
I've never even known its true velocity.

Yet, first, someone has to be whole on their own
or else, the less they have to honestly express,
the less they'll have to give
and the less they'll have to play around with.
And this is also not to say
that there is only ONE special person for everyone;
we're all extraordinary people
as long as we live and give our true genuine selves.
Too many of us just don't, though.
They play games.
They lie.
They manipulate.
They fight.
They get caught up in insecurity, infidelity.
They listen to only their insight.
They breathe their ego and deny nature's growth; ebb & flow.
They haven't found themselves;
They can't seem to be genuine;
They'd rather lay down than continue runnin'

So when you find the one in the million
(that breaks from the tradition of givin' up and in)
The one that actually shows you,
it's your heart they want to win.
it's that much better to begin,
it's that much better feeling glorious & victorious again,
it's that much more meant to be;

I've found my opposite
that has just as much love for me;
so, now, I can finalize my philosophy.

Come on,
any takers care to fight me?

Love and Life

"I always wanted someone like you.

No,

I always wanted someone that is you."

Other times I had doubts that were plenty
but this time, baby, I just don't have any.

A secret escape
as you opened up your gate
to the moonlight and the ocean view;
you became me as I became you.

The ocean in my eyes
was in my soul that night;
You dove in
& swam around;
you found the temperature
was more than right.

And when I gazed back
I thought
"what a sight,
he's finally welcoming my light".

Love is a way of life;
that we enter
with every right.

"*Your faith was strong but you needed proof*
You saw her bathing on the roof,
*~HER BEAUTY & THE MOONLIGHT OVERTHREW YOU.~*
She tied you to a kitchen chair
She broke your throne
She cut your hair &
~FROM YOUR LIPS DREW THE HALLELUJAH~...
Baby, I have been here before;
I know this room,
I've walked this floor
I used to live alone BEFORE I knew you.
Hallelujah" *

*Lyrics in purple by Jeff Buckley

I had this vision when you kissed me of this little girl laying on the sand with her legs in the air bending back and forth. She's playing in the wet sand; the part where the water comes and rushes over your feet but slips back into the ocean before it completely soaks you. She's wearing a purple one-piece bathing suit with ruffles at the top. Her long dark brown hair, which is almost black; so much so that sometimes people can't even decipher the difference, is consistently drifting with the wind. It has a slight curl to the end of it and a red bow holding some of her hair in a tiny ponytail but the bow is undone on one side so that there's only one loop; it came undone in a fury of her own passionate play. I knew right away she was your baby girl; even before the vision shifted to show you sitting, not so far away, gazing at her like there was no one else in the whole wide world; and certainly no one as beautiful as "your girl". She's as much your girl, though, as she is the rest of the world's; it's a balance, you have to share her beauty, her purity, her simple philosophy with the rest of the world since you see first-hand how life-changing she is. And I see this all in the way you look at her. She is you as you are her as both of you hold the rest of the world in your heart and at bay. She emanates your energy just as much as she is your energy. She has a caramel tan; you can tell she inherits her skin-tone from you but it is not the same as yours. It lacks the darkness and it's just more of a feminine tan. She has your features everywhere but they're simpler, they fit her and every one can tell. Everyone takes a second glance when she passes and she is only four-years-old.
It's not as easy to tell who her mother is; in this vision, it pretty much isn't important. Because this is about you and her and the way she interacts and exchanges her world with you. I felt like I may have been at the beach with you; staring at the same scene but not necessarily involved with it; it is, after all, a shared memory between you and your daughter; no one else. I could have been your friend, your lover, or even just another being helping you to discover. It doesn't matter. You call her "Vesper"; you're proud and you make the rest of the world feel that they should be too.

~The most beautiful image I was ever provoked to see <3
You open my eyes to a different world every day.

Vision.

I've finally met a match
to break from the mix;
light my life like
I've never felt anything but this.

It's hit or miss
but at least I embrace my actions;
make my statements and
NEVER
retract them.

Yea,
I think that's the way I like to live.

So, what? if
I like to
give.
How else do you expect me to
RELIVE
what I've been given?

So come on,
Slip in...
Outlive
or just start livin'.

why is it continuous to think like this?

When does what we see
SOLIDIFY INTO A MEMORY?
How many days are lost to what we
JUST CANT REMEMBER?
How many autumns just effortlessly
slipped into December?

What you thought you saw,
YOU DIDNT SEE
cause in this world
PERCEPTIONS ARE IMAGINARY.

I was searching for answers
& asking ALL the questions,
ALL the right ones too
but NO ONE had the solutions
so I slowed down &
I sight saw MY SELF;
I found my own resolutions.

*Not Done
Just a thought process I had to write down
