She Said

 I would like to think that I'm Spiritual, not religious but I read the religious text called the Bible. I also believe in love and I know that there are definitions of what love is versus what I've been showing to my last girlfriend. 

1 Corinthians 13:4-5

Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful;


She read the greatest love and understood it to be about my love of first sight relationship or in retrospect the girlfriend it's about. The greatest love isn't about said girl but about the feelings around it and they can't be recreated because we are all different people. I understand that that relationship has ended, I hold on to the hope that there can be a love-at-first-sight relationship again. It doesn't have to actually happen but I want to look at the woman I love every day with that feeling. Because in that relationship the feeling went away, and I'll I had was a longing for that feeling again. I want to never go to bed angry, sad, crying, pissed off, or hurt when I say the words I love you to that woman.


I do love this woman very much and there's pain between us. There's a bond that I hope will continue. She's one of the most creative, insightful, passionate, Italians I know and a mom. She struggles, so do most single parents. She also has her own struggles and that's okay, we all do. I do know that she loves me but we don't show it sometimes when we get into arguments and turns into hurt and shouting or hanging up which is wrong. I don't think I've ever had my buttons pushed so much by a girlfriend and I liken the angst of the relationship to the previous one, unfortunately. 


I don't want to make this negative at heart. I care about everything this woman does in and out of my life. She is so talented as mentioned before. I think she deserves the world or at least to be Dutchess of San Fransico. 


I have been irritable and I don't want to be resentful. In the last relationship before her, I have no love for that woman. She was an alcoholic and belligerent towards me in front of her own children. She called me a liar and tried to disprove my bipolar. 


I would love to be in Renee's life for the future in whatever capacity that would benefit us where I still can be emotional support. 


“Love is knowing that your feet carry you to a painful place, and still go anyway.”
― Mitta Xinindlu


I'd like to know that I'll still love her even if we don't have anything to do with each other. I don't want a continuation of painful relationships that string together more pain and hurt. I hate cycles and I believe that sometimes there can be a harmonious ending. No matter what happens with our hearts, I want her to know that I have the best intentions. I don't believe in bringing more harm to those already in pain or bringing pain into people's lives that would cause them to stumble. I do take responsibility for a wake of destruction that ends relationships because it takes two to make the relationship end. I want to know that my feet walk in a loving manner and that I am my own priority, my heart, and my destiny.

The Only Time Consitancy Sucks

  I'm constantly reminded every morning that I have a disease. I take a few little pills that make life relatively easier. Today isn't one of those days. I'm super frustrated, sad, and have a crazy headache. It's not that I enjoy talking about the reality of what goes on in my brain, this is new the talking about it, within the past couple of years. It's like tons of information got held back and for a while, I just talked and talked. I've gone through a lot and I'm really proud of myself for working hard and getting back into school last spring. I'm proud of how hard I work at simple life tasks that people take for granted. I'm proud of how hard I work just at a job and what I hope is seen by employers as my integrity. I'm really proud of being able to coach kids in flag football and how much I really enjoy it. Life is much better than it was even 2 years ago to a year ago. I keep moving forward and marching towards a brighter future. A lot of ...

Where We Stand

  High on a scaffold, strapped with a harness and a torch. My shoulder slouches as I light the torch. The torch pops and hisses as it lights. I’m tired, I wake up and think this is a bad dream. To leave all I knew behind to be bound and oppressed. To be broken by the system I was entrusted to. The arc burns blue, as I weld the piping across the concourse. No one cares about us, as it grows more evident. No one knows the pain, I’m in as I pass out from the pain at the end of my day. Not even my partner, I hide my feelings till, I’m about to break. It’s a way of life up here in ole Boston. The struggle is to hold my eyes open and stay awake. No one knows that I’m broken inside. No one knows that my hurt runs deeper than my shoulder. In this place there’s no room for me, it’s a gig for the boys. This isn’t my swan song or a happy jig. I’d rather take a swig, Walk away from it all and be at peace again. This road is hard and is made unbearable by the...

To Whom the Bell Tolls

 Hi, my name is Joshua Harke and I’m from Syracuse, NY. I’ve lived in Charlotte since I was 13 years old. In the summer of 1994, we moved to Charlotte, NC. It was a huge culture shock and life change for a new teenager. I went to a few different schools here; I went to Randolph Middle School for 7 th grade and I was bullied there so my parents moved me the next school year to Bible Baptist Christian Academy in Matthews. I liked it there and played soccer in middle school. I also attended church there with my family. I transferred schools after my junior year to United Faith Christian Academy. I loved it there and grew into a great high school athlete. I played in the praise band and played soccer, baseball was even the mascot, and outside of school, I played ice hockey on a local team and for the Junior, Checkers travel team. I made Who’s Who Among Highschool Americans my senior year. I also couldn’t decide what I wanted to be as an adult and that’s fine. I had an internship in a ...
