Help

I have decided to write about depression/anxiety.. so many people suffer from both on a daily basis and have been for years. Some people just don't get it and need to be educated. If you have been dealing with depression/anxiety or know someone that committed suicide and would like to tell your story.. please email me @

Thinking out loud ...Wednesday ramblings

I woke up today with a completely different mindset from the previous months before. I was shrouded in darkness and for awhile that's all I could see was the dark. 

I knew people meant well but they had no idea what I was going through everyday what felt like forever. I was angry and I saw darkness and red. 

I wondered "why" a lot with no real explanations to why my life was turned upside down when it was finally where I wanted it to go.. 

I have always thought of myself as a decent person but was I being punished for something? Was this karma biting me in the ass? 

I stopped caring and was just mean for no reason and so out of character to the people that I loved. I guess sickness will do that to you. 

I am hoping that I am finally getting better so I can begin living my life and start traveling once again. 

I want to finish my goals and just get the things accomplished I started last year. 

Good afternoon,

 It has been exactly a year since I last blogged. Around this time last year I had started school at Ross Medical for Medical Billing and Coding and was supposed to graduate in April. Life did not go as planned and things went very wrong at the beginning of the year (this year 2016)

I had the most difficult third trimester which resulted in me being hospitalized four months and two additional hospital stays this fall. (hospital stays from 2/19 to 6/17/16 & 8/29 to 9/16 & 9/19 to 10/04)

I have been through hell and back literally, and it will all be chronicled in my new book that will be out this February 2017. I will release the title late December with the picture of the cover of the book. The book will contain poetry that I have written pre and post hospital stays, so it will be a little different. 

I am also happy to announce that I am coming out with another erotica poetry book as well. I hope you are all are excited about that. Ink Intimacy was supposed to arrive last year but some things don't go as planned.

My goals for 2017 is to get those two books ready for you all and that you will enjoy both and hopefully can appreciate hearing my story, because it has not been easy to write. 

Much love to you all,

-Patrice

Laying here beside you

While you sleep, and I with my thoughts running rampant

Can't help but be amazed at the love I feel for you

This particular love 

Has grown, embodied itself into my life in such a way that even absences 

Can't seem to tear us apart

Or make the fires that were ignited die out

Is this what soul mates feel like? 

This undeniable bond, sexual attraction, this emotional lifeline if you will

These feelings that can't simply be ignored even when one tries

Or one pushes the other away

Even when you admit you want to quit

The deep abyss that this love has grown out of has reigned us both back in

Never allowing too much time or space to take the place of this love

Short story, parts 1,2,3,

She turned her wedding ring around and around on her finger

As the vows that they spoke to each other played in her mind

She thought of the love they shared

She stared at the door in front of her

Room 315 and on the other side was the grass truly greener? 

She stood there and thought of him

Thought of the lustful feelings he gave her, the rapid heartbeat, the giggles.. That her man no longer gave her

Decisions.. Decisions.. 

She ran her fingers through her hair.. Wanting to feel his fingers do the same, she put her hand on the knob and..

..... Opened the door. She stood inside the doorway, her breathing increased. She took a couple of deep breathes and slipped her ring off her finger placing it in the inside lining of her purse. 

It's now or never she thought to herself. She walked further into the room to find the man that has put more smiles on her face and erased the moments that her husband made her cry, made her laugh more in the last month than her husband of four years had ever done. 

He smiled at her with so much love and warmth, she began to feel at ease. She walked over to him and placed her hands on his bare chest. A chest that would put David Beckham to shame. 

They stood there staring at each other, neither saying a word. Basking in each other's presence. 

If things went how she wanted them to go there would be no turning back, her life would be forever changed...

... I stood under the shower in room 315, washing away my sins as the memories of what transpired between him and I. 

The man made love to my body like he had known my curves, dips, spots for years, and then I frowned  when I thought of how my husband once touched me in those ways.

I couldn't help but to compare the two, one was inattentive and no longer cared about my needs when my secret lover cared about every need I had before I had the need itself. 

Is this how it's supposed to be? I squeezed the shampoo into my hair and started to work the soap into my scalp. I didn't regret letting him touch my sacred spots, I couldn't wait for the next time. 

WAIT! A next time.. I sighed.. What the hell had I got myself into? This wasn't me, but I knew I couldn't stop...

Sandra Bland

Don't you dare turn your back on the innocent that these cops continue to take from us

Her life was not lived in vain

Each moment she treasured

She was given an opportunity to better herself

Instead it would take her on a journey that would end up being her last days on this earth 

She was told she would be lit up 

And that she was under arrest 

No reason was given

All she was given was unnecessary duress 

3 days later, a fable was told

Her life was gone

Questions unanswered 

And in Illinois a family mourned

Sandra Bland

We must continue to say her name 

So that she isn't forgotten

That her memory lives on 

That we aid in the fight alongside her family in the hopes that the truth comes out

and that she is awarded justice

So I ask you to say her name

Sandra Bland

Untitled..

With disregard to my feelings

You embraced me, said words I never thought I would hear you say to me

Only for you to let me fall, and to my dismay you weren't standing there with open arms..

And so my body hit the floor 

Heart shattered as if it was glass

You slammed the door closed to what should have been the story of us

Instead leaving me uninhabited

I was no longer existing

Just a shell of what I used to be

You took the breathe that once belonged to me

When you told me you were leaving..

I am proud to announce..
