Lonely writer

Inspired by a Case of U by Joni Mitchell sung by Prince

 

I am the lonely writer living in a world surviving in my mind.

The catch, the era has passed & I’m lost in time.

Tryin 2 capture the memories of old.

Yet those days are long gone… sadly they can’t be bought or sold.

Where does this leave me 2day?  Right here in the modern age of impersonality.

Sittin on the stoop watching time pass where none of it seems real just an illusion of reality.

Where is the love?  Where is the intimacy?

Folks don’t C the end is fast approaching!  Why does it appear most are blind 2 C?

I give up tryin 2 show the love I have bottled up inside.

Why Father didn’t U bring home, the nite I died??

If I have unfinished business, tell me what I am 2 do!

That way I can finish & return home 2 U!

A walking contradiction... What you see isn’t what you get. To get to know the essence you need to open the book and read. An enigma; giving, selfless, conceited, arrogant, loner, author, friend, confidant, trainer, model, actor, and life coach. It really depends on your relationship with him. To someone who doesn’t know him or decides to judge the book by the cover; he is viewed as conceited, arrogant or even mean. Which is the exact opposite of who he is. He’s more of a shy introvert around those he doesn’t know or isn’t comfortable with. Get below the quiet exterior and you’ll find a heart that, to know is to love. He tries to live his life literally walking in love. He would give the shirt off his back to help. Raised by his mother, with no role model on what a man should be. He set out to be different than what he saw in the community. Men who abandoned their responsibilities to pursue whatever tickled their fancy was the norm. These men didn’t care about the damage caused by their selfish actions. He thought the road would be easy, but alas, it proved him wrong. Society had changed dramatically in a short time. People seemed to perceive his love as a weakness. Or perhaps they had not come across a person, who accepts them for them. Always waiting for the other shoe to drop, they tried to manipulate a gift to their advantage. Left alone most of the time, he started to set his pain to print. Never intending for anyone to read it. However, God had a different plan in mind. He would use DC’s pain to show the women; that there are men out there, who do feel profoundly deeper than they think. To reach out to the masses that don’t know how to get others to understand what they are dealing with or have dealt with. He simply wanted to help people on a larger scale.
