NATURALS DO IT BETTER.

just felt like sharing an original.

i shall co-exist there.

now back to the feature...

I Dream in Black and White

Alone, but not really. I’m surrounded by colors

The world around me explodes into a broken rainbow

Everyone indistinguishable from one another.

Time goes by fast when the crooked are made straight

When the foundations vanish, gone are the great.

I crumble. So do they.

Me next, they all pray.

I shut my eyes to leave the confusion

Leave the screams of a dream fulfilled, and a dream lost.

Identity found while being forfeited

I try to scream too, until my voice is hoarse.

Lay me on a beach of jet black sand

Soak up the side of me that people try to shun

Can’t put together where one life ended and another begun

Jumbled. Scattered. Alive. My mind is crowded.

Scan the sunlit prism. Isn’t this what I wanted?

We’re not together. It’s just the first goodbye.

Do you feel the same love you did last time you looked me in the eyes?

And like that, my thoughts go up in flames

My dreams turn to ash

Reality came at me like a speeding bullet

And I woke up too fast

When you cut out all the bullshit and know you’re forced to wait

You’re mind is the only place you can color and be safe.

I hate living in black and white. I mean,

Compared to standing in the middle of a dream

In the midst of darkness, you’ll realize

It’s so much lonelier when you open your eyes.

Inspiration List

I feel like I'm lacking drive. I need inspiration, so I look to these:

"Brown Sugar"
Fuze the MC
Sex and the City
Wale
J.Cole
Shake
Solange Knowles
Anceztaz
BarbudaSun Photography
Jasmine Whiting Photography
Concrete Loop
Natelege
Angela Boatwright
Honey magazine

These people are not only self starters, but they have passion. They have drive. Or at least they represent it. I need for that to rub off on me.
