Life from my view

There was a time when my best friend and I- just couldn't seem to see eye to eye. We chose our paths as separate as they were... but when we are together all of that.... what is it worth... So here is another poem I wrote long, long. long ago- to my best friend. It did not have a title.. but now I will create one.                                                                 Latitia Old and good friends share a piece of passion, pain and pleasure that no one else, not even family can begin to know or treasure. It's as if a secret room- held their private store And every time they met they escaped through a secret door. It doesn't matter if they speak each day or if years and years go by before they have much to say. The moment that they meet it is like magic happens It's all there- the moments, the tears, likes and...

WITH THE CURRENT SOCIAL CLIMATE... WILL I BE PERCEIVED AS A TRAITOR? I HAVE NEVER CARED WHAT OTHERS THOUGHT OF ME, WON'T START NOW. SO WHY START NOW? WHY IN THE WORLD WOULD YOU EVEN TRY AND DATE A WHITE GUY GIRL? WELL TO ANSWER YOU, WHY NOT? WE SAY WE LOVE LEAR...

I don't know how to say that in English, but you just feel it. Juan Pablo Galavis Life is never what you expect it to be. I caught myself this week being the girl I always have been, the hopeless romantic..... Just how hopeless am I? A Walk to Remember, I cry the entire movie- not because she dies- beacause he loves her UNCONDITIONALLY. I cry so hard I get a headache. I digress.  What happened? I had a bad day and I needed a drink, an outlet of some kind. Of course on these type of days none of my friends are ever available. Usually, I just curl up, cry it out, drink wine and eat pizza.  Not this day, I went to Marianos and had a drink by myself and cried a bit lol. Drinks were good and should have been for 11buck a pop!
