I woke up with a splitting headache
And a sad heart
I was born with a clay spoon
All the curse words flows into my mind
I desperately want out
This constricting place
This disabling environment
This fake – ness
I want something more
I can be better this I know
Look into my eyes
Do you see the defiance in them?
Do you see the fire in them
Do you see the cold embers?
Maybe with time
Maybe it will all change
But in my head I scream
I scream out loud
I want to break bottles
Smash them to the ground
Perhaps the crashing sound will help
Soothe this anger deep in my soul
I want out
Oh God
I want out
I am no longer at ease here!

Dear friends, I’ve been going through a cycle of circumstances I dislike. I’ve been out of here for a month and three days. I miss you all. The names are too much to call or acknowledge. I’m glad Prince Wilson of Super inspired moments is back and regular. He was away for about three months. I hope I can be back here and regular but if I can’t, then we will make new blogging schedules and make it work. I hope my friends in the Diaspora Stella and Jacqueline are doing great. In the midst of my crazy life, I found love. I’ll share the story someday.
A big thanks to all my new followers and a big thanks to all my friends who stayed.
Until next time,
Blessings!
Deb

Oh, Deb, I’m just now getting back. Sad news if you are leaving. Maybe just a recess, hopefully. Go with the Lord’s comfort and guidance.
