because i was never taught about love and lives and life.. my mom was too busy being with men to pay me any attention:

Sometimes, being by yourself doesn't have to equate to being L~O~N~E~L~Y
If only you learn to love yourself

I heard momma
But I wasn't really *listening* til' I turned 23
The reality of knowing & loving ME took awhile
Cuz I was too busy tryna git in where I fit it with a *wink* & a *smile*
But after being hurt & disappointed a few times
(In friendships & in love) -- thru iLL reasons & rhymes
I started to understand



and I'm 23.. it's like I read... the present stage I'm at on screen from someone else... I dig this Photo.. Peace~
