Jagged Edges

by Grey Huffington

Women, man. They just knew what to do and how to do that shit.

Its in our DNA.

Each day, I was fighting to let go of the survivor my mom had made me at such a young age to a thriver with plans to be the best version of woman that I could be.

I didn’t know her story and neither did I have to. It was her heart that I felt drawn to. With all its massiveness, seemingly needing someone to help relieve her of all the love it had to give. I was him.

Another woman’s presence had tainted the entire place. I needed a do-over.

I love this energy right here ☺️

“It’s twenty of them,” he read my thoughts, “Each to celebrate a year of life for you. For every year you deemed your birthday unworthy, I’d like to change your mind. Because it is, in fact, a big fucking deal.”

Be still my beating heart 💓💓

I wasn’t sure if my confidence had stemmed from him revealing that my wish was his command, him rushing to see me at my request, the effort he’d put into making my birthday special, or the fact that I was in his home in his robe.

Its all of it sis 🤗

“I like your little ass. Too fucking much, I’m afraid,” he proclaimed. “Please don’t make me regret this shit.”

By the time she finished fucking with me - hopefully, it wouldn’t be before the death of us - she’d be walking, talking, singing, eating, looking, healing, and feeling different. It was my mission to be the nigga to enhance every good thing about her versus dragging her pureness through the mud.

A. Fucking. King 🤴🏿🤴🏿🤴🏿

There was simply something about seeing someone with nigga in their blood thrive beyond the world’s expectations. It got my blood pumping and filled me with unspeakable gratitude.

Followed with a reassuring smile, she placed a hand to her chest, “It beats differently when I’m with you.”

Typical of a woman, to have her entire world up in flames but still wondering if others were inhaling too much of the smoke.

Keeping this fat ass secret from her when you literally don’t have to.” His frustration was apparent in his voice and the way he stepped away from me to reach the other end of the shower.

Because you acting mad childish right now Brisk 😑

When she was around, the entire world played in the background.

“I thought you were going to make it up to me,” she pierced the silence with. “You’re not getting any dick, Brisk. Take your ass to sleep,” I finalized, drifting within seconds.

She had a taste & now she addickted 😂😂😂

“Why’d you come back?” “Because my heart told me to.” “What is it telling you right now?” I wondered. “To practice patience with you. We’re both still learning.” “Thank you.”
