Dear Community,
Hello, how are you living? I want to skip the usual formalities to share this with you. Saying that I’m, “Doing Impossibilities Frantically Finessing Everything Remembering Everybody NOT Trustworthy” only means that I’m different. See how that works? Sometimes saying so little can mean so much! My time is spent mostly writing, brainstorming, and trying to be creative. I have a lot of time, so I’m preparing myself regardless as if I’m coming home next year. The fight never ends until I’m dead and gone! I keep all goals, dreams, and plans alive in my pursuit for this second chance. I’m a very serious person when it comes to ambition only because we have to be during these hard times, do you agree?
On the other hand, I’m pretty normal. I like good food, love great music, making people laugh if it’s possible. I don’t always draw full circles or make perfect boxes, but I have a moral compass. I came to Wire of Hope looking for solid, genuine people. I don’t say real anymore because that word tells me to remember everybody ain’t loyal, and I’m sure you agree with that. This kind of process between two strangers should be slow but also mutual. That’s what I’m going into this for, to naturally be me. I truly hope you do the same for me!
I like deep conversations, so here’s a few questions for you: Tell me something that I would love about you but not like about you in the same breath. What is your favorite childhood memory? How many people have you lied to your entire life?
If you like to think hard and be challenged, I’m here for that. I definitely want my limits pushed to the max, so come on with it! I always say don’t look at me with the first impression; let me give you the impression first. I’ll meet you on Friendship Street, and I’ll be waiting!

Fast Scar

Being around you my whole life has been an honor and great pleasure
I can go anywhere with you because your love is truly without measure
Looking up to you being the opposite sex, you’re my number one hero
Remembering all these times we shared, looking back won’t ever amount to zero
It’s too much to reflect on that’s positive to focus on any negativity
The lessons I’ve learned, I cherish forever, receiving from you a true identity
What had made a soft place is the expression that everybody used
This feeling is like I get from God with you; I will never lose
My stubbornness gets in the way all the time when I get stuck
Comparing myself to a pig for choices I made rolling around in muck
Hope is supposed to be kept alive, but there’s none for the weak
That’s why as I’m sitting here writing this my eyes are becoming teary
Failure is part of life, but it always leads to make better decisions
When I finally mastered myself over time, I created another avenue of precision
I’m very tired of hurting you after I made all the same mistakes
Always pushing the pedal to the metal when I stumble, hit the brakes
My quote
I call myself suit + tie because “Supreme Understanding It Takes to Invent Everything.”
