No matter what I do in this life, I will never forget you.
We've been going on for 8 years now, and I know this is only the beginning.
What is a man without someone he can come home to and confide in? A woman (or man--for those of who swing that way) who understands you when the rest of the world doesn't. When you are down and out, she will lift you up.
She knows what to say, when to say it, and how to say it. Never blaming you, but giving you the benefit of the doubt when you know you were wrong.
Knowing she shouldn't be with you, but knowing that without you, she wouldn't be.
It's the same for me.
Baby, this blog is for you, eternally.

Dead Line
I've always been a procrastinator.
In Kindergarten, I would be the last one to take a nap.
Now, in college, I wait to the last minute to turn in assignments.
If that deadline isn't within a day, I'm not thinking about it. And it's burned me more than once, evidenced by me having to take online courses to fulfill the credit requirements to graduate.
If that's not motivating enough, what is?
Yet still I find myself on the brink of elimination. Some deus ex machina figure keeps pulling me out of trouble, coming from the sky when I think all hope is lost and rescues me.
I fear I won't be scooped up this time.

Those who are dead, are not dead, they're just living in my head
I remember you cousin Jackie. How can I forgot? I couldn't.
You were and will remain my favorite cousin.
When I was younger you used to call me your "boyfriend" and I was tickled (I still am to this day). I'll be whatever you want just to see you again. To see your smile beaming from ear to ear, full of exuberance and life.
Jackie you were a strong woman and even though your life was taken by the hands of a man, you remain strong, even in your demise.
At this very moment, I can feel your spirit touching me, comforting my disconcerted soul, telling me everything will be alright.
I know you're with God now. I will never forget you.
Jackie, you're my angel.
