Never Settle

January 21, 2019July 9, 2019 / Just L / Leave a comment

Too many women I know have stood or prayerfully waited for too long, thinking that they are doing the right thing, the good thing, even the God thing: NEVER SETTLE for anything less than extraordinary. If you are not in a relationship where EVERY DAY you feel loved, ADORED, cherished, and that it is made … Continue reading Never Settle

He doesn’t need you to fix him But to live your life unapologetically Support him But grow on your own Unconditionally love yourself first then him He doesn’t need a mother A savior or even a queen Instead be his lover His best friend And partner in crime Because he doesn’t need to be rescued … Continue reading He Doesn’t Need You To Fix Him

What is it about me?

November 25, 2018July 10, 2019 / Just L / Leave a comment

And she replied, I can, and have. I am at a very free stage in my life. I have been deeply in love and I have had my heart broken. I have spent the last year guarded, practicing my yoga, and in reflection. I have done my fair share of playing, but when pursued, a … Continue reading What is it about me?

Next Time: Note to Self

November 19, 2018July 10, 2019 / Just L / Leave a comment

Are you a romantic? Watch for clues that s/he sees life through this lens, too. Sunsets, landscapes, a room with a view. Do you see the glass as half full? Your positive vibes will be wasted. Don't choose an ungrateful. If an adventurous partner is what you desire... Find one on a journey. Not someone … Continue reading Next Time: Note to Self

Their Smiles Betrayed Their Reasoning

November 17, 2018July 9, 2019 / Just L / Leave a comment

They met on a beach Not at home but not on vacation Talked about life, relationships, and music Found they had much in common Nothing at stake they were vulnerable and open Isn't that the way it is in the beginning? Over the months they made plans to reunite And did on several occasions Super … Continue reading Their Smiles Betrayed Their Reasoning

If you knew how he felt about you Your posts of him may not be so sweet He does not sparkle with pride Surely your love is not so complete If I knew about you I may have saved myself the trouble Simply loving my own fabulous life Until the truth be told burst my … Continue reading If You Knew (Mark My Words)

She Released A Deep Sigh

October 11, 2018December 1, 2018 / Just L / Leave a comment

She had said all of the things over and over. Rehearsing her award-winning speech in the mirror. Uttering  the words time and again. "Is this our beginning or is this the end?" She was resolute not leaving anything to chance. As her will was oft weakened by romance. She spoke her peace and held her … Continue reading She Released A Deep Sigh

You never ever have to convince someone to do the work to be ready…

September 29, 2018 / Just L / 1 Comment

"Someone can be madly in love with you and still not be ready. They can love you in a way you have never been loved and still not join you on the bridge. And whatever their reasons you must leave. Because you never ever have to inspire anyone to meet you on the bridge. You … Continue reading You never ever have to convince someone to do the work to be ready…

Unwilling To Discount My Price

September 29, 2018May 7, 2022 / Just L / 1 Comment

What she doesn’t seem to know Is that I broke it off with you two weeks ago A letter that begins with “Dear John” Restating my intention to take action Letting go of the deep soul place I held sacred No one to blame, the commitment faded The stars were not aligned for us to … Continue reading Unwilling To Discount My Price
