Supporters

Supporters are going to support
while the haters are going to hate
but while the haters are busy hating
I won't let them disturb my fate
you see I have a dream
just as anyone else
Whose goal is to be successful
and it should seem
that the new me
I am better than my old self which is helpful
We hustle and we grind already with fear of failure clouding our minds
In a place where to be liked or to get a single like is simply too much for someone's time
Putting more emphasis on the negativity in one's life
Where the measure of positivity gets lack of accolades and fails to compare in the struggle to applaud what's right
Understand that it isn't just about me
It's about him and him and them and we
Together building a future to keep us off these streets
To make sure and ensure that they have more than enough food to eat
More than enough knowledge to speak
more than enough love to keep
to be restless and sleepless and unable to sleep
While finding yourself laying in your bed counting sheep
With nothing but the vision of a prosperous existence flooding your thoughts
Thoughts become things as respect is what is taught
A supporter would walk thru the fires of judgments with you
Correcting non supporters whom lack a complete understanding of why it is they support what you do
Wouldn't have to be singled out to promote your cause
And if one failed, wouldn't magnify your flaws
Appreciate your tremendous contributions to the existence of a wealthy life
Won't judge you or once your back is turned bury a knife, In it
In it to win it and this much is true
True, we all have our own lives to live
yet with me living mine to the fullest, I still have time to give
If anything, a lil positive feedback which is free
where some don't seem to have enough time for me
and that's not okay
Being supportive of people and their ventures and future endeavors especially if it positively improves their lives
has never cost anyone anything, except for a moment of their time
It just hurts to realize that the ones you think are loyal, the ones who you think have your best interest at heart
are the very same ones who would sell you out for a bit of sunshine just to get themselves out the dark
Looking for those supporters who if you had a business, they wouldn't always want a hook up, a discount, stuff for free
When you make it big, those will be the first ones with you to get down on one knee
And pray to God, thanking God for your blessings of His glory
For when I make it, we all make it and that's not even the end of my story
Instead of being a non supporter in line with their hands out looking at you as if you owe them something
you can't get blood out of a turnip and instead, they get turned away with nothing
Entrepreneurs can relate to the feelings I feel of blood, sweat and tears
years, in a dedicated passion of their career field of choice
So to all of my supporters, I'm thanking you all with my voice
Thanks for your support, purchases, likes, invites, encouragements and shares

And last but not least, thank you all for showing me that you care!

Restless sleep

When you can’t sleep, count sheep But the sheep don’t appear The echoing of your name Is the only thing I hear In my mind, as if my brain Vanishes, leaving an open space Throughout the village of mountains I hear the echo and in the snow I see your face When you can’t sleep, count sheep Still the sheep aren’t in sight The fire in my mind that burns for you During sleep, once again ignites Toss and turn in restless sleep To get close to you, I sometimes walk In reality you’re not around So why in my dreams, do you stalk? When you can’t sleep, count sheep But when I do, the sheep quickly turn Into sweet memories of you In restless sleep you need me When I awaken, it’s not true written by Marcia S. McNeill From: More than a Title book

The Weight

I could feel the weight of her world upon my shoulders Yes, upon my shoulders the weight of her world I flashback to once upon a time when I was a little girl Brought into this world by a mother and a father My mother and my father I was brought into this world A world that was created by my Father A world that was created long before my birth Long before my delivery, a time before my worries You know they say to practice what you preach And I teach, I was taught from birth to love Yet, at times I feel that love doesn’t love me back Instead, the kind of love that I attract is the kind of love that attacks And smacks and hurts and bruises one’s ego Making you second guess your first thought And ignore your second and third thoughts Makes you at times question your whole entire existence A lot of pieces of my heart, tend to be missing So yes, I could feel the weight of her world upon my shoulders For I, for I, me, I am not getting younger, yet older I feel paranoid, ...

Reminder

I don't have to remind myself, just how much I love you You on the other hand, seem to find the time to remind, me that you love me when the world is crashing and crumbling down, around you You feel the need to explain yet, some things are without explanations this here reality that I am facing appears to be a nightmare that I can't wake up from running in the long dark hallways all alone, all alone by myself but am I truly by myself? for whenever I look behind me, I see another distraction and in front of me, yet another obstacle I want to love you the way you deserve to be love but what about me, would that leave me to be less deserving of a love that catches you by the hand and secures your heart or is it the kind of love that is at times your rock, then sinks you I think about you all the time and I can't help but miss you but miss me with the bull, miss me with the blame miss me with the tit for tat in a game that remains the same lonely nights wand...
