Pity.

I have no words. My body aches. I'm tired, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. No one to say you are great. No one run bath. No one tuck me in.

I will take care of me. Quietly. No bothering with the bullshit of others who tells lies to their souls. Who in their own insecurities masks hidden wants and needs.

My head falls to the side. I type with determination because my soul aches. Who will rub the head of God's child? Who dears to believe that she maybe in need? Strength and power are given to me as gifts of life and I am cursed for it. Driven, I am alone. My droppy eyes tell no tales.

I love me because....who else will.

If I was your girlfriend

I came across the video for "If I Was Your Girlfriend," taken from the Sign of the times film. I started gigglin'. Prince IS a pimp. So clever. Witty. Smooth. Just runnin' game but damn, I'd fall for it. The title alone would get me..... IF I WAS UR GIRLFRIEND - PRINCE
