....And Niah's Story Begins in 3...2..!!!!!


Welcome! I hear blogging is therapeutic so I've decided to give it a shot! Please bear with me as I figure out how to work everything. This is my way of evolving and letting go all of the pain that has affected me for so long. I've decided to divide this blog into three parts: The Diary, The Truth, and The Journey.

You'll Always Be My Hero...Even Though You've Lost Your Mind...

The Truth: Quote Of The Day

"The truth is, everyone is going to hurt you. You just got to find the ones worth suffering for."
 
-Bob Marley

The Diary: And I Could Have Loved You...

So this is it huh?, She Says
He backs up, walks away, nods his head

She stands there tears falling from her eyes
He stops...and too her suprise...
He keeps on walking without looking back
She sinks to her knees and whispers
"Just like that?"

"Just like that?!?" She stands yells
He stops in tracks....
She runs to him, drops to her knees...
Grabs his legs, "No, wait, please don't leave me!"
She stands, and begs one more time...
He asks her one simple question...why?
She speaks no words but the story is told...
She could love him were she not someone's else...
To have, to hold


So what were they doing here on this cold wintry night...
Hidden from plain view...out of sight
Sharing secret passion that was..taboo
Sharing the us when there wasn't even a me and you


What started so innocent turned so red
From friends, to best friends, to lovers, to bed
From the late nights, to secret date nights, to secret love fights
From I like, to I really like, to what might...
Could be...me...you...the two of us
Fom the passion in bed, to the passion in the head, to the passion in the soul


And in her eyes the story was told...
And in his eyes the distance that couldn't be closed
He knew someone else had her heart
and he also knew he could only have a part
But what was fucked up was she had his whole
Mind, body, heart, and soul
She loved him yes...it was in her eyes...
But that was the problem it was always hidden...always in disguise


She asked quietly, Do you love me?
He asked in return, Could you ever leave?
She dropped her gaze, whispered please
How could she leave? How could she stay?
How could she give either one away?


Her silence gave the answer he was looking for
The hiding, the disguising, he couldn't do it anymore.
And for very last time...he walked away
She watched in silence...how could she ask him to stay?

The love they felt could never be told...
He whispered in the wind, tears in his eyes....I could have loved you
And walked away in the cold....

The Truth: Quote Of The Day

""I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together"

-Marilyn Monroe

The Truth: Everyone's in the Masquerade (Part 2)

Facebook Fool

Facebook addiction has become an epidemic that is spiraling OUT OF CONTROL! If you're an active member of facebook, I'm pretty sure you've heard these phrases at least once. "Did you see what *Jasmine put on *Jessica's page last night?" or maybe " Did you hear who *John put he's in a relationship with?" or the ever famous phrase " You should have been on facebook last night!" And for me, personally, here are my answers to them: Hell no I haven't see what *Jasmine put on *Jessica's page, Hell no I didn't see who *John put he's in a relationship with, and HELL NO I don't know what's going on with facebook! You want to know why? Because I actually use facebook for it's true intentions or rather, I have a mother-f***ing life!  I mean really is it necessary to have five hundred  pictures of your face...just so you can change your profile picture everyday? Really, you have twenty-five sibilings? Really your going to put a status airing you're dirty laundry and then get mad when people talk about you? I mean come on! What's the matter with you people?!? What? Mommy and Daddy didn't give you enough attention? You have to activate facebook mobile so you can put a status every five damn minutes? You have to put the "like this status if" so people can shower you with attention? You have to like ALL of your own freakin' statuses??And people wonder why they're so "tired" of facebook...It's because you're on it every damn minute!  I...Am...Sick of it! I'm sick of people putting on facades to make their life seem so glamorous and great when really all they're doing is sitting at a computer trying to think ways to impress people or get someone to look at their page. Here's a news flash: If your life was so great you wouldn't be updating you status every ten minutes! Uploading a zillion photos of you doing nothing! Just clawing oh so desperately at the computer for some attention...I mean hey don't get me wrong everyone loves a little gossip and attention, but when it gets to the point where you HAVE to check your notifications or when feel out of touch with what's going on when you can't check your page...it's time to turn the computer off, turn the laptop off, and for pete's sake get in touch with the real world.

Someone Once Told Me....

The Truth: Quote Of The Day

"She was a girl who knew how to be happy even when she was sad. And that’s important—you know "

-Marilyn Monroe

The Diary: What is Love?

Love: Noun, Verb
   1. A profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person.
   2. A feelinf of warm personal attachment (i.e. mother & child).
   3. Sexual passion or desire.

OR....

Knowing someone has flaws and caring for them not because of all the perfect qualities, but for the beautiful flaws that make them who they are. Sharing your pain...Sharing your heart. Sacrificing time and passion for one's self to share with another. Caring for someone's well-being and future, praying for them all that your soul can;  Complimenting and Complementing one another so fully...contributing to one another's essence and nourishing each other's soul. Being harsh when you have to, and being gentle even when you don't have to. Nuturing each other spiritually, emotionally, and physically...Sacrifice, Compassion, Empathy, Purity, Sanctity, Comedy, Trust, Faith....To throw yourself of the cliff completely, without hesitation....knowing....they'll catch every time....


















I wrote this when I was in highschool, dreaming of this bond....the dream is realized...



















For He is Love.....

The Truth: Everyone's in the Masquerade (Part 1)

Death of Barbie....

I am so tired of people parading around trying to be something they're not! The most upsetting thing about this is...they seem to be proud of it! I mean really...you're a "Barbie" or "the baddest bitch?"  Really, that's the best thing you can say about yourself? That's what you want people to know about you? That you're a fake, plastic, artificial being playing around in a pretend world while someone else tells you what to be? HELLO! Reality check! In case you forgot Barbie is a pretty plaything. That's it, nothing more. She doesn't dress herself, choose the path she takes or even has a say in her life what-so-ever. When little girls are done playing with her they throw her away...forget about her.  So ask yourself, it that what you want to be? A pretty plaything with no substance that's easily replaced and forgotten? Hey don't get me wrong Nicki Minaj makes decent music, I have nothing against her... She's a good artist...and that's it. Sure some people like Nicki Minaj can afford to be Barbies.  That's her career, that's her livelihood. But for women who aren't making millions of dollars...it's time to put the dolls down. Grow up! You should not be a twenty-something dedicating your time to being a Barbie!  You should not have children and in the same breath represent yourself as a child's toy. I know it may seem glamorous but it's time to step out of Barbie's world and come back to reality. Realize your potential as a woman and become yourself. Don't use snappy lyrics and cute clothes to define who you are. Be more than that. Let your personality shine from within and you'll thank yourself for it later.

The Diary: Passion of Flame: The Soul's Eye

If you're my friend on facebook you may have seen this already...if not enjoy!

Passion of Flame: The Soul's Eye

Old Flame...
New Flame...
But you...you are my truest flame
He who is my truest flame that ignites my soul
and knows...
all the stories it holds, and all the things that remain untold
He who burns my soul with passion and scorches his name onto my being
Giving my life it's very meaning
He who is my truest flame
It burns my lips to whisper your name...
a name so fiery it holds my inner most desire in every syllable
I just can't deny the way I'm feeling you
I mean...it's like you just delve into my soul, my deepest essence...
You are my greatest blessing
My passion, My flame,

He who is my truest flame...
I love it when you make say me your name
Your strong touch lights my body on fire...
satisfying my deepest desire
My spine tingles, my toes curl...
I can't deny it, I'm trapped in your world
I feel helpless against a passion so strong...
there's no way it could be wrong
Our naked bodies intertwined...
I am yours and you are mine
The passion we feel in these moments speaks the true nature of man and woman

He who is my truest flame...
I will never forget the power of your name
the nature of your soul...
and the passions untold
these flames we feel will never die
for they are my beauty...my soul's third eye
and even when the fire embers are low
the passion forever burns...even when it doesn't show
for I am yours...and you are mine
the flame of love...my soul's truest eye
 
 
...I dedicate this to the love of my life Marquese...with whom my bond only grows stronger

The Journey : Ten things about me!

For my first post I've decided to tell you a little about me...sooooo...here we go!

10 Things About Miss Niah...

1. I constantly worry about EVERYTHING! : As nonchalant as I try to be...deep down...I'm a worry-wart. I worry about big things, small things, things that don't matter, and everything in between. I'm trying to stop this constant worrying but then I end up worrying about worrying!

2. I have a small phobia of germs: I don't freak out at the thought of germs or anything but I will wash my hands three times and use a little hand sanitizer after taking out the trash. Sometimes I have to laugh at myself for how ridiculous it is, but hey, it's who I am.

3. I'm naturally awkward and anti-social: I must admit...about 90% of people annoy the crap out of me... but no one would ever guess that about me since in most cases I'm extremely polite and friendly. However just because I'm friendly doesn't mean I like people...it just means I'm not a bitch. Going to college really has helped me flourish in the social aspect so I'm not as introverted as I once was.  But still even today, ask me if I want go to a club or party...then ask me if I want to play Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood...I'm definitely staying in for the night!

4.  I loooooooove music: Music helps me get through the trials in my life. I can listen to almost any genre. I was simply sick when my iPod passed away. I now have at least one playlist of music on any eletronic device I have and even have a back-up library on my flash drive. When I'm sad...I listen to music. When I'm happy...I listen to music. And when I'm just plain bored...you guessed it...I LISTEN TO MUSIC!!!!!!

5. I neglect my friends: Don't get me wrong, if you're truly my friend I sincerely care about you. But as I stated in #3 I'm just awkward and anti-social. So I tend to forget to call or chat on facebook. It's just in my nature to be alone and it's easier for me to just be by myself than to call up a friend. So if any of you are reading this just know that I LOVE YOU and if you ever need anything I'm here for you. (Seriously I'm really trying to work on this...but it's harder than you think.)

6. I'm a good listener: I understand what it's like to just want everyone to shut the freak up and listen to what you have to say. That's why whenever someone comes to me with a problem , I take it to heart and do everything I can to help them. I understand that sometimes you don't even want a solution...you just want to be heard, to vent.

7. I've made stupid decisions: Yeah I've done some pretty dumb shit, but who hasn't? One thing I can say is that I've learned. I've learned that some people don't have good deep inside of them like fairy tales want you to believe. I've learned that yeah, some guys just are the scum of the earth. I've learned that drinking can't solve your problems.  But through all of the stupid decisions I've made I've also made sooooooo many good ones.

8. I've made good decisions: Yep I have to say I'm a pretty smart girl. The good decisions I've made outweight the bad. I've walked away from abusive relationships, helped people who didn't deserve it, forgiven those people who set out to hurt me, sacrificed because it was the right thing to do and the best decision I've ever made is always, always putting all of my faith and trust in God.

9. I'm "weird" : I personally don't think I'm weird but some people do. Is it so weird that a 19-year old black girl likes anime, video games, reading, comic books, mythology, and has a slight obsession with square-enix? HELL NO! I say that just makes me one kick-ass, interesting, and diverse person!

10. I'm afraid of change: I can admit...doing things that could drastically alter the course of my life frightens me. But I'm working on it. That's why I've decided to confront this fear head on. I'm letting my hair grow natural, I've sat out of school for any entire year, I'm trying to live a healthy lifestyle  and when I return to school I intend to be at the peak of my potential! This blog is going to help me with the progress :-D

Now that I've told you a little about me...I hope that you'll continue on this journey with me! I'll be posting another Ten things about me list in the future so if your curious to know more stick around! I promise it'll only get more interesting ;-)

~Yours Truly...Miss Niah <3
