Could you please lay here with me

It's been a while since you've experienced a certain affection only someone of the opposite sex can give (or same sex for some). You're in need of a certain kind of attention. One that makes you feel special, wanted, one with enough power to brighten up your whole day at the utterance of a single word/name. You wish you could find a best friend through shared intimacy. One you are willing to break down your walls for, give your all to...

You are alone... in need of a friend, a brother, a sister, a stranger, anyone really because trapped by yourself on that island that seems to be surrounded by waters no one ever sails or treads. You are barred from the rest of the world. Shout all you want. There is no one to hear or rescue you... you are alone...

It is dark. You're afraid. You know the monsters are under your bed there waiting for you to fall asleep so they can attack. You know they're real. You've seen them countless times and you know the horror they're capable of...

You lay there and deep within you, you know any minute now you will never again see or be with your friends or family. You see it coming. It's drawing much too close for comfort.... **INHALES**... don't let it go, it might be your last...

You.... I am you...

All the while I could hardly recognise myself as i watch different parts of myself wither away through each circumstance.
Lay with me.... Please... Lay with me, I need your warmth. Hold my hand as I exhale. Restore me. Breathe life into me. Rid me of this loneliness. of this fear. of this entrapment...

**EXHALES**

Now I am revived. But don't leave. Lay with me til the morning so you can see my smile in the new dawn.

D.I.Y.: Vest to Bodysuit

Hey! It's been a minute.... yes, a really long minute 🙈 I know. But I'm back!! Woop woop. The festive season is upon us and we all want to look good because why not?? So I'm here to help y'all look good on a budget so you can have enough money left over to go out and celebrate.... you're welcome, you know I gatchu *insert high five here*. So, last year I had written an article on thrifting, or salaula if you may, on the Trendition-Z page, follow the link >  HERE  < . I gave a few tips on how to go about it so you will definitely find it useful. (Read it!!) A while ago, I happened to find myself in DAPP because they had clothes going at K8... K8!!! How could I walk past that?? So I got the vest and knit sweater in the thumbnail picture above for K8 each and felt pretty good about my purchase. Problem is, the vest was way too long as you see above. Ended up looking like a really short dress so it was idly sitting in the closet until I got a light bulb m...

Look for Less with DIY

So.... I'm into arts and crafts, DIY... anything I can do by myself I don't like to spend money on. From changing a light bulb to fixing a plug or socket to hammering something together, fixing a door handle, painting, braiding my hair all the way to the clothes I wear. I prefer to do things on my own from the phrase/saying: "If you want something done right do it yourself"  That's my motto. I prefer to be self sufficient and encourage others to do the same because there is nothing I hate more than having to be stranded and depend on someone else to come through only to disappoint me.  But don't get me wrong, where I'm unable to, I'm quick to ask for help. So school was forcibly/prematurely closed so i've been bored outta my mind.  But then I thought "hmm i like clothes. Why don't I get a little creative to pass the time" and got to it. Yesterday I came up with this little number Made the crop top out of a p...

He Can Get it Two

Thought it was time for an update on the He Can Get It post... and so here goes: I had talked about the repulsion effect in that post... and had been thinking heavily about it. About how we tend to love the people that hate and hurt us or the ones we would never have a chance with. You know, the guys that make plans with you and you go all out to get ready. The perfect outfit, face beat, hair did and smelling good and then *ring-ring* he can't make it, all or most times but because you're so into him you keep putting up with it. Or the guys we're willing to lay it all for because we think we've found "the one" but he cheats and betrays your trust more than you know but when you find out, you forgive him because you love him. Then there's the guy that has you feeling all kinds of good. The almost perfect guy that knows just what to say to get you hooked and high on him. He's fun and exciting.... and in a relationship. You know you shouldn't ...
