Coffee

< / 3

Well, this place is old, it feels just like a beat up truck
I turn the engine, but the engine doesn't turn
Well it smells of cheap wine and cigarettes
This place is always such a mess
Sometimes I think I'd like to watch it burn
I'm so alone, and I feel just like somebody else
Man, I ain't changed, but I know I ain't the same
But somewhere here in between the city walls of dyin' dreams
I think your death it must be killin' me

- To Be With You



Hold on little girl
Show me what he's done to you
Stand up little girl
A broken heart can't be that bad

When it's through, it's through
Fate will twist the both of you
So come on baby, come on over
Let me be the one to show you

I'm the one who wants to be with you
Deep inside I hope you feel it too
Waited on a line of
Just to be the next to be with you

Build up your confidence
So you can be on top for once
Wake up, who cares about
Little boy that talks too much


I've seen it all go down
Your game of love was all rained out
So come on baby, come on over
Let me be the one to hold you

I'm the one who wants to be with you
Deep inside I hope you feel it too
Waited on a line of--
Just to be the next to be with you

Why be alone when we can be together baby?
You can make my life worthwhile
I can make you start to smile

When it's through, it's through
Fate will twist the both of you
Come on baby, come on over
Let me be the one to show you

I'm the one who wants to be with you
Deep inside I hope you feel it too
Waited on a line of
Just to be the next to be with you

I'm the one who wants to be with you
Deep inside I hope you feel it too
Waited on a line of
Just to be the next to be with you

Just to be the next to be with you

If I have a little girl, I'll call her Layla or Nova

<3 kennedy="" maybe="" nbsp="" p="">


What will you do when you get lonely?
You been running hiding much too long- you know its just your foolish pride.

Tried to give you consolation..
Like a fool- I fell in love with you, you turned my whole world upside down.

Make the best of the situation, before I finally go insane.

Tell me all my love is in vain.
Layla....

Jhene Aiko - The Worst 

Tell me whatcha say
Come again?
If you cannot stay down
Then you do not have to pretend
Like there is no way out
I shoulda never let you in
Cause you got me face down
And don't take it personal
But you're the worst
You know what you've done to me
And although it hurts I know
I just can't keep runnin' away
I don't need you
But I want you
I don't mean to 
But I love you
Tell me whatcha say now
Tell me whatcha say?
You said that you would come again
You said that we would remain friends but
You know that I do not depend on
Nothing or no one
So why would you show up
So uninvited then
Just change my mind like that
Please don't take this personal
But you ain't shit
And you weren't special
Til I made you so
You better act like you know
That I been through worse than you
I just can't keep runnin away
Everybody's like
He's no item
Please don't like em
He don't wife em
He one nights em
I never listen
No
I should have figured though
All that shit you was spittin'
So unoriginal
But it was you
So I was with it
And tell you the truth
Wish we never did it
Cause I usually do
Stick to the business
But you came out the blue
And then you just flipped it
God damn baby
My mind's blown
I be forgettin'
You live in a different time zone
I think I know what this is
It's just the time's wrong
And yea
I know what you did
But baby I'm grown
And my love is patient
And kind, and shit
If this is real we can build
And do different types of shit
If you was really the realest
Wouldn't be fightin' it
I think your pride is just
In the way
(like a bitch)
Funny how everything changed
Once you got all that you wanted
Nothing was ever the same

BABY thats whats left of me, I dont have very far to fall






I had a wall built higher than soul can hope or mind can hide and then somehow you managed to find a crack in that hole. Now that wall has been reinforced and I never wish to be without it. I never want to love again if it hurts this much to lose it. The happiness of love is not worth this pain.
There was something in that building drawing me in, tempting me with something I could have only dared to dream of, a love so beautiful that it would take my breath away. And you did, I couldn’t breathe. I saw you and instantly my heart knew what it had waited so long for. I knew more about you in a few short months that I would about anyone else in a lifetime. I traced every part of you and memorized every curve, forever burned into my head.
It’s always funny to me, matters of the heart. My heart that still continues to beat even when it’s been shattered in pieces. My heart that still has the ability to love even after its love has been ripped from it. The heart can be torn and thrown around, ripped, and shredded, and yet it still remains, there in our chest, forever beating against our skin, reminding us that we are alive and that a broken heart kills you in a much different way than death. My heart breaking has brought unbearable sadness to my life. A love so great that separation from him breaks it even more. 
They say that the heart that loves withstands the test of time, but the heart that loves and loses only has the strength to withstand what is left in the bitterness that follows a heartbreak. 
My love, you have no idea how much I love you. No one on this earth has any idea how much. Every single love in this world is different and everyone loves differently. Never does the same love happen twice. Never will anyone love you the way I do, and for that, I am sorry. I did not chose this, and I would never chose for you to live the rest of your life with a mediocre love.

(sponsored post)

  

Want to make a really special gift for someone? I always recommend making them a beautiful photo book. But the good news is that you don’t have to do it alone. Here’s some advice on how to make a beautiful birthday or anniversary book from my friends at Blurb (with examples from the book “Our Life” by Pandora Frazier).

This is the big one. A “this is your life” photo book. A book you’ll put together to present to a really special person in your life, at a really special point in their life. 50th birthday, 50th anniversary, a wedding, a memorial—life’s big events look even bigger when you present a gift that’s a tribute to them, full of heartfelt stories and personal photographs from their most loved ones. Sound a little complicated? It’s not, especially when you have people on your book-making team (and handy instructions from Blurb).

Gather your siblings, some special friends, or a group of talented coworkers and get started on the book of a special person’s lifetime.

Here’s exactly how you can get a group together to make it work: 



Steps
  1. Choose a team of people to help you with your book
  2. Have your team contact friends and family of your special person to collect stories and photos about them
  3. Choose which stories and photos you actually want to use
  4. Edit the stories and scan the photos
  5. Lay out your book with text boxes and photo pages
  6. Get feedback from your team and make final edits

Whats the point? #compromise

I feel lately, that my life is a rollercoaster ride, that I am terrified to be on, but have to wait for it to stop spiraling out of control. When will it ever come to a rest. Relationships are so complicated. I wish I had a rewind button. If I had the money- I'd get in my car and drive to infinity. Sometimes I wonder why I make these bad choices that I make. It's like I am glutton for punishment. Maybe thats TMI, but maybe I just need to vent.

If you truly love someone, then you wouldn't be selfish right? I have a new relationship. It started out so beautifully. I fell in love. But the harder I fell for him, the more he took advantage of my love.

Whatever happened to compromise? I need a mate who is less selfish. Usually in a relationship, the men that I choose bend over backwards to make me happy. Yet with this guy, it almost feels like hes bending over backwards to NOT give e my way. It doesnt seem to matter what I want, or need-- its always "no". But when he wants somehting, I jump up and do it- even when I dont want to. How is that fair to me?
His actions everyday make me love him a little less. I've tried to talk to him about it, but again- his selfishness seems to have no limits.

Its super stressful, and makes me think I need to get rid of him.

 There's only so much one person can take. My life may appear all beautiful roses on the outside, but the roses are thorny and painful if you hold them too long. I have some "thorns" in my life right now, and desperatley need to figure out what I am doing with myself.

Here this boy is, telling me how much he "loves me" but if he did- the things that I want would matter more, no?

This past week, I was involved in a DV situation w him. We got into an arguement because his mother meddles in our relationship. The fight escalated to him breaking my kitchen chair into matchsticks. Then, he spit in my face. So I got my Blackberry BOLD ($500) to take a picture of my shattered kitchen chair. At that point, he snatched my pphone from my hand, and broke it into the kitchen floor. I was angry, so I went to grab his guitar to break it. Turnabout is fair play right? Apparently not. He grabbed me, threw me on the ground and proceeded to starngle me. I couldn't breathe, or even SPEAK for about 60 seconds. My life literally flashed before my eyes. I thought- well this it. Im about to die on my bedroom floor at the hands of a man -- scracth that, a BOY. I will NEVER forget the look in his eyes. Pure hatred. Of course alcholol was involved. He was extremely intoxicated...  not that that excuses it. And of COURSE hes SOOOOOOOOO  "sorry"..
When his mother who lives acrosds tyhe street, and is the source of 99.9% of our problems) called the police because he had scrathes on his neck, I guess they thought I was going to go to jail. I guess they thought wrong.

When he let me go (and thank god he did) I jumped up, panicing, I snatc hed my sleeping children from their beds, and fled my house- running for my LIFE.

When the police got here, they told me that strangling someone is a felony, But on his 4th day in jail at more in depth interviews, they said the case would be "un-winnable" in court, because I had picked up his guitar with the intent to break it. So basically Alabama law says that since I was going to break his guitar that its ok for him to strangle me with no legal reprecussions whatsoever.

Does that make sense to anyone? Bc it doesnt make any sense to me. At all.

How can you love someone and try to kill them? Will he kill me next time?

Tell the Devil I sad hey when you get back to where you're from....

We touch, I feel a rush, we clutch, it isn't much
But it's enough to make me wonder what's in store for us
It's lust, it's torturous, you must be a sorceress
'Cause you just did the impossible, gained my trust

Don't play games, it'd be dangerous if you fuck me over
'Cause if I get burnt, I'ma show ya what it's like to hurt
'Cause I've been treated like dirt befo' ya
And love is evol, spell it backwards, I'll show ya

Nobody knows me, I'm cold, walk down this road all alone
It's no one's fault but my own, it's the path I've chosen to go
Frozen as snow, I show no emotion whatsoever, so
Don't ask me why I have no love for these mo'fuckin' ho's

Blood suckin' succubuses, what the fuck is up with this?
I've tried in this department, but I ain't had no luck with this
It sucks, but it's exactly what I thought it would be
Like tryin' to start over

I've got a hole in my heart for some kind of emotional roller coaster
Somethin' I won't go on, so you toy with my emotions, so it's over
It's like an explosion every time I hold ya, I wasn't jokin' when I told ya
You take my breath away, you're a supernova

I'll do whatever it takes, when I'm with you I get the shakes
My body aches when I ain't, with you I have zero strength
There's no limit on how far I would go, no boundaries, no lengths
Why do we say that until we get that person that we thinks
Gonna be that one and then once we get 'em, it's never the same?

You want 'em when they don't want you
Soon as they do, feelings change
It's not a contest and I ain't on no conquest for no mate
I wasn't lookin' when I stumbled onto you, musta been fate

But so much is at stake, what the fuck does it take?
Let's cut to the chase
'Fore the door shuts in your face, promise me if I cave in and break
And leave myself open that I won't be makin' a mistake

So after some months, it's no longer me that you want
But I love you so much, it hurts, never mistreated you once
I'll pour my heart out to you, let down my guard, swear to God
I'll blow my brains in your lap, lay here and die in your arms

Drop to my knees and I'm pleadin', I'm tryin' to stop you from leavin'
You won't even listen so fuck it, I'm tryin' to stop you from breathin'
I put both hands on your throat, I sit on top of you, squeezin'
Til' I snap your neck like a Popsicle stick

Ain't a possible reason I can think of
To let you walk up out this house and let you live
Tears stream down both of my cheeks, then I let you go and just give
And before I put that gun to my temple, I told you this

And I would've did anything for you to show you how much I adored you
But it's over now, it's too late to save our love
Just promise me you'll think of me
Every time you look up in the sky and see a star 'cuz I'm a

I'm a space bound rocket ship and your heart's the moon
And I'm aimin' right at you, right at you
250,000 miles on a clear night in June
And I'm so lost without you, without you, without you

Carly Simon - You're So Vain



You walked into the party like you were walking onto a yacht
Your hat strategically dipped below one eye
Your scarf it was apricot
You had one eye in the mirror as you watched yourself gavotte
And all the girls dreamed that they'd be your partner
They'd be your partner, and....

You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you
You're so vain, I'll bet you think this song is about you
Don't you? Don't you?

You had me several years ago when I was still quite naive
Well you said that we made such a pretty pair
and that you would never leave

But you gave away the things you loved and one of them was me
I had some dreams they were clouds in my coffee, clouds in my coffee and....

You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you.....

Well I hear you went up to Saratoga and your horse naturally won
Then you flew your Lear jet up to Nova Scotia to see the total eclipse of the sun
Well, you're where you should be all of the time
And when you're not you're with
Some underworld spy or the wife of a close friend
Wife of a close friend, and....

You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you.....

Sally Hansen & Influenster Complete Salon Manicure #review @influensterVOX


I have always loved Sally Hansen Nail Colors and I favor pinks, and even though I am thirty ( I always wanna say 'flirty and thriving'.. you know: from 13 Going on 30" movie? )

I have to admit, I do still love a good glitter polish!  I can't help myself. The colors Sally Hansen selected for me are a little too mature for me, but I used the red on me, and doctored it to "my style" though I might've had a few glasses of wine before I attempted to even do my nails. And I am NOT the best person to ask to do anyone's nails- much less my own. So, don't judge me! 











Anyway, without further ado, here are my pics (throughout post) and my opinion is that this nail polish is superior in every way to do the others dozens of polishes that I have/own. 

It doesn't get gunky. The consistency is right, and it spreads evenly, stays glossy, dries fast.. The best part is the wide flat brush's unique shape lends to a one swipe coat going on evenly without sitting having to retouch it, until you make it gunky and streaky. The less coats, the smoother for the untaught hand that polishes hands (like Moi!) Read more tips and opinions of this polish on Influenster now. Plus + find other reviews from trusted Mommy Bloggers like me on all your favorite other brands too!

Special thanks to Influenster & Sally Hansen. I was tickled to receive this box of 3 amazing nail polishes for FREE!

Catch up with the brands on Facebook.com/SallyHansen & Facebook.com/Influenster

Disclosure: I was sent products for free in hopes of mentioning it on my blog. Although suggested- it was not required that I post and I didn't receive any monetary compensation for this short review of Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure which I did btw LOVE!


Happy Valentines Day (upcoming) and thanks for being a reader of Locomotion of Expressions!
