How I’m Feeling
I haven’t shared anything personal with you all lately. And frankly, I haven’t been able to find words with ease as I used to. I’m sitting in my car listening to “Dear Mama.” The song just happened to come on the radio while I’m here feeling down. I lost my ace, my best friend, my mother a month and 13 days ago. On May 14, at this time (11:17pm) I was at the hospital staring at her lifeless soul. I feel like the pores in my skin have been stretched beyond physical boundaries. The moon ain’t got nothing on me. I’m a fragment of a person marred with craters and chasms. Winds blow right thru my torso. I am but a morsel of a man. Minute. Minuscule. These holes have only gotten larger as the days have passed by. I performed at the Apple Store last night and it was so much love! It was my first public performance since my mother’s passing. I would always practice my pieces at the house and my mom would always say, “when are you going to write a poem for me?” My reply was, “there aren’t enough words for what I’d want to say about you.” Her health prevented her from ever getting the chance to see me perform live. Naturally, before I got on that stage last night all I could do is think about her. She would always tell me to have a great show right before I left the house. She’s the one person on earth that I knew believed in me at all times. Well, writing this has made me feel a bit better. I don’t have the desire to share anything more at this point. If you got the chance to read this, thank you and be well. Life is precious yet fleeting. Live freely but live with care. Above all, show love like its the only thing you’re capable of doing. Peace, Joekenneth

Hello world! Thank you for visiting my tumblr. I chose to entitle my blog "The Thoughts Within Us" because I honestly believe that our internal pondering effects our style, passion, art and determination. Further, whether we are conscious of it or not, the thoughts within us are exposed by our actions or inaction which can inspire those around us. Inhale your elements and proceed to give humanity a breath of fresh air.
