Sand in the wind, it blows and flies.
Hot, sharp sand lands in my eyes.
The pain and screams I keep inside.
Oh the pain, I want to die.
My insecurities work just the same.
Attack my mind and make their claim.
They take my joy, they take my life.
They make me go for the nearest knife.
Sand in my eyes, insecurities on my mind.
Sand on the rise, insecurities unkind.
Sand takes me by surprise, insecurities kill my peace of mind.
Sand, sand, in my eyes.
My state of mind has declined.

Her
I’m gonna start off by saying I really love this woman. Love is such an understatement when it comes to her. I adore her. I treasure her. I cherish her. I respect her. I am infatuated with her. I am enchanted. Mesmerized. Addicted to her. I wanna say that I'm so grateful and blessed to have her by my side. She is precious to me. I love her so much. She is so attractive to me, inside and out.

Do You have a Support Network?
Life is harder when you’re on your own. Human beings are social creatures, and we usually feel better when we have support from a strong social network around us. For most people, it’s our families that hold us together like glue.
