Day 13. Someone you've drifted away from

Dear you,

"She was blushing. She was laughing. He was the reason why. But he was in love with another girl. She knew what love was. It wasn’t a tie that was broken by walking away. Love was love. No one walked away unscarred. She wanted to love him. She wanted to turn his hands over and tattoo I love you in his arms, to teach him to draw her face with his eyes closed. She wanted to trace kisses on his body, and teach him the contours of her own. But he was already in love. She didn’t want to compete but she still laughs and blushes and tells him all her dreams and fears. He still listens."

You should have stopped listening and I should have stopped talking. But even perfect people have weaknesses. Now look at us.

Me.

DAY 5 A LETTER TO YOUR DREAMS

How are they so many of you? Lord. I can't keep up. Maybe I take too many naps and sleep too long. I feel like I'm always chasing... Always so confused and for a very long time I sat and watched. Then I turned twenty. And as if for some reason God decided that Twenty was the year. Doors opened and we walked through. I can see you clearly now. Everyday's to do list is one step closer to I made it. And every sleep less night is one less dream and for once I'm really glad man. I'm really fucken glad I'm not feeling like you're slipping away. I'm trying to keep up. I'm really trying to stay awake.

Somethings I'm Excited About

Number1 I haven't gotten the email confirming whether my poem has made the finally selection for this. But I'm excited and I hope to be getting a confirmation soon. :) I made into the "semi-final"round I guess. Not that its a competition but I'm happy. I will be even happier if I make the selection for the final online Fusion. Even if i don't. I'm really proud of all the Batswana Poets that made it. :) voice newspaper article on the project 2. Botswana Amateur Arts Festival. again confirmation will follow. :)

Sweets, chocolate, pastries, coffee and other little treats

It smells of lovely scents of sugar and cinnamon and glorious coffee. I've never been to a bakery this beautiful. i loved it. i brought home dozens of little treats. :) And the coffee was heavenly... i had 2 cups.
