♪ Another Lonely Xmas ♪

Inspired by the song of the same name by Prince listening on repeating thinking of the upcoming inevitable ending. This is one of my all time favorite Prince songs.  On the 1 year anniversary of his death, I share this with you all.  Words can’t express my sadness that I’ll never be able 2 go see him live again or that I’ll never be able to buy new music by him ever again. 😦  I’ll miss him till I join him on the other side.  Rest in paradise Prince!

It’s been a few nights since I spent another lonely Xmas.

I drink till I’m blind cuz it helps me to remember us.

You were the one my dreams were made of.

Now I spend my time alone… you were my last great love.

I remember how we would talk till the sun came up.

Last night, I spent another lonely Christmas

I guess as long as there’s pain,

Trying to sleep, but my heart is restless.

Then I know love is still holding the reigns

 

We would spend so much time talking and sharing, yet and still I never got enough.

We only had a little over 4 years together, but what a ride it was.

Part of me will always be sad; I lost the only one I ever truly loved.

Remember that night you wanted to commit your friend into rehab and wanted me to help u?

Odd way to first meet, but what can I do?

Last night, I spent another lonely Christmas

I guess as long as there’s pain,

Trying to sleep, but my heart is restless.

Then I know love is still holding the reigns

It didn’t end up working out the way you planned, but you got what your actions desired.

I tried to wait, even begged and pleaded to get things to change…as life goes time expired.

Now things are painted in a permanent shade of blue.

I’ll remember our time fondly cause I’ll always love U!!

Last night, I spent another lonely Christmas

I guess as long as there’s pain,

Trying to sleep, but my heart is restless.

Then I know love is still holding the reigns

Bottoms up on this pitcher of banana daiquiris,

Because Xmas is coming fast.

I know it won’t always hurt like this and the pain will eventually be a memory in the past.

Until that day comes I’ll watch as the time passes by.

Cuz all the one’s I dreamed about you were the one I wanted without a doubt.

Another lonely Xmas is mine this year & the next till I run out of time.

Last night, I spent another lonely Christmas

I guess as long as there’s pain,

Trying to sleep, but my heart is restless.

Then I know love is still holding the reigns

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.
