Re: How come I'm still single...
Loved the pieces by Mayda del Valle, and particularly liked Part 2. And was that Mos Def
at the end as the host?
part 2:
you said you had a photographic memory
but apparently you forgot that honesty
begins by being real with yourself
and the ones you claim you love
should have never wasted my time
and just acted like the man you claimed and told the world you were
made a production of setting my folks at ease with tales of how you'd do all it ever took to never break my heart
I guess you thought you were talking to a roomful of the deaf and blind
figured they didn't hear you
coz I never saw it coming
but the truth cannot be hidden
what's clouded in darkness will always come to light my love
you shoulda known that
claiming you saw my light so clearly and brightly
so I left
chasing paper trails of promises you'd already set on fire
left with nothing but the ashes of who you'd written that you were
and singed fingers from trying to grasp the impossible
and the only thing I've really lost
are lukewarm kisses
that for too long I kept trying to tune the beat of my heart, a few lies, and stories
about honesty and truth
I guess [censored] happens
I just wish it wasn't me
and I guess
it's so much better to have loved and lost
than never to have loved at all
I know that's some easy [censored] to say
but I'm still gonna try to live by it
I'm still gonna try to put my faith to rest in it
I will sleep on dry pillows now in a bed big enough to love myself in
I will awake these coming mornings with my eyes dry and shining
full of the knowledge I am priceless and worth nothing but honesty
I will remove the scarlet letter from my chest and hold the hand of the little girl I used to be
and say I'm sorry to her
I'm sorry for cheating you out of the joy you have always deserved
and I will wait
for a man
to come along
that can give me the truth of how much he can really love me

This part really resonated with me and made me burst out in applause:
