Yes people. I'm typing another entry to this blog. I would've incorporated this into my other post, but it'd be out of place. The following poem was inspired by my special someone. You know who you are. I hope you enjoy love...
^_^

Untitled

Since rays of hope are shining through these cracks, I'll break these walls down
for you.
I've never liked these stone buildings anyway.
They'd always kept me concealed from the world; from someone like you.
Now I'm ready to help bring down this monument of fear because you're worth it.
And I speak not of beauty, charm or physique.
I'm talking about what's underneath.
As our minds speak, my heart quickly beats.
I'm descending from the heavens with you as my target.
Clouds fail to obstruct my vision because you're the only person on my radar.
I'm hearing single blips on my screen because I'm stuck on you.
I hope that my meeting with the earth is a gentle one, because I've fallen for you, and I'd
hate to crash.

So...this week has been a bit of a busy one. Even though I'm finally where I want to be in several of the elements in my life, there's still work to be done. My life is still not where I want it to be right now, but its heading in the right direction. I've always had self-analytical tendencies but never did much after "figuring out" my problem. Some say that such habits are unhealthy, but in my case, they're unaffected and overshadowed by laziness. It wasn't until recently that I discovered this about myself.

Although I'm pulling a Dr. Phil on myself again, I intend to improve upon my shortcomings as a person. I'm not going to let the negative aspects of my character control my life anymore. If I do then my hopes and my dreams will wither and die, and I wouldn't know what to do with my life if such an ill fate were to fall upon me. Enough about that though. Let's move onto other subjects, shall we?

To all those who read this blog, or future readers, I want to let you know why I write. I write because writing is the only thing that makes sense anymore. Its like the sights and sounds of my world are distorted and corrupt, and I need to write to decipher them. I need to decode the foreign language that I'm constantly bombarded by daily. If I don't then the prospect of living is dead to me and I might as well be dead with it.

I don't write to impress people, attract females, or entertain others necessarily, but to push myself to become better than I already am. Although I'm pleased when other's like my pieces, it wouldn't matter to me if they didn't. As long as I write a something that I like, I'm happy.

My inspiration doesn't come from one specific things. It comes from all aspects of my life. Life is what's happening to us daily, and I often find myself writing about how it affects me. I can let people know my point of view of things without creating conflicting, and that has always been a positive aspect of writing to me.

I know some might consider this a rant, but I'm not complaining about anything. Hell, right now, I'm not even mad. All I am doing is informing people about another aspect of myself. I hope that you guys have enjoyed this blog. Until next time readers...

These past few weeks have been busy and realxing all together. One minute, I was enjoying my days off and the next I had a billion homework assignments to do. I think over the break, I forgot one of college's cardinal rules, "Work now. Play later." Dont worry folks, I'm not going to be inundated with homework assignments. I've decided to get back on top of things in all of the elements of my life. This blog is one those parts of my life that I've seem to have neglected in my "play".

With that said, I want to introduce you to a Hip Hop artist that I have fallen in love with all over again. He goes by the name Substantial and his music is amazing, in my opinion. His lyrical content is amusing yet deep. Furthermore, he's a pretty good story teller. Check out some of his tracks below.

Enjoy

So I've been back in school for about 2 weeks and I must say that its been interesting to say the least. I've discovered that the professors that I have are very thought provoking. Although their teaching styles vary, they all successfully influence us to think outside of the box. This is a truly intriguing factor about this semester of classes. I believe the discussions that we have in class will influence my writing to a degree, but I digress.

I'm a huge fan of Underground Hip Hop. I listen to anywhere from the most famous Underground Hip Hop artists to virtual unknowns. Recently, I rediscovered how much I liked an artist by the name of Akir. Before I head out for now, I think you guys should check him out. The follow track is called "Treason" which has another artist by the name of Immortal Technique on it. Don't worry kiddies; its censored.

Enjoy!!!
