Big Sis

We have the same blood, but many different traits.We are very different people, but still we relate.Im sorry if at times I irritated you, but please understandthat your presence alone has made me a better man.I appreciate your wittiness and integrity I believe in my life, you’re the secret recipe.An angel who was sent toContinue reading “Big Sis”

To Be Lost

What is my path? For I do not know what things will last or how I will grow. Uncertainty makes me nervous I dwell about my purpose. I feel stagnant depression starts to surface.
