Hey Love...

Dear Love,

I miss you. No, no I really do! I'm not just saying that to make you smile. Everything is different without you in my life. Things are so different now. Yeah, yeah I know I took you for granted, but I was young and I didn't know any better! How long are you going to hold that against me? You gotta give me another shot. I promise I'll do all the little things this time. Huh? The arrogance? Look I'll try but baby Rome wasn't built in a day.

Oh and I know that's you that keeps giving your cousin Infatuation my number. Knock it off! I don't need that in my life. I want you! I mean you are such a splendid thing. I like the feeling in my stomach when you're around. I love the fact that you kept me smiling. C'mon you gotta admit I have a beautiful smile. Right? See, yeah I see you smiling. I could always make you smile. We were so good together.

Now the days aren't as bright. I toss and turn in my sleep. I know you always said it was better to have had you for the time that I did than to never have you at all but we belong together. I know you never promised to be with me forever and that you leaving was partly my fault but I'm a changed man now. I'm grown and I want you in my life for good. You know I met someone 3 years ago. She looked just like you and for the longest I thought it was you. In fact I convinced myself that she was you but it turns out that she just had some of your qualities. Next time I'll know not to accept any imitations.

So where do we go from here? I need you and I know you want to be with me. I know that Musiq wrote that song for you but that was his outlet and this blog is mine. I don't want to talk your ears off I just want you to know that I ache inside without you and I know in my heart that someday soon we will be reunited. Until then just know that I miss you dearly and I will always be looking for you, my special Love.

Yours Truly,
D.

The writer in me adores this...

TTD said...

nice.. you also could've played LL Cool J: I need Love.. that would've went so well w/ it

Ddot the King said...

Thanks ladies. I was a little skeptical about posting this but I'm glad you guys liked it.


TTD I looked for I Need Love first but I couldn't find it. Great minds think alike.

Lāā said...

Awwww! That was so beautiful. Wow, the king does have a sensitive side.

No, but really that was beautiful!

Ddot the King said...

Wow. Everybody is quiet today.

Ddot the King said...

Thanks LaaLaa. Of course I have a sensitive side! :)

Lāā said...

Our entire system was down this morning. That was the cause of my delay.

What brought on this post?

Ddot the King said...

I'm not sure what brought it on. I guess everybody wants to be happy and fall in love with that special someone. Even us jerks. :)

Drama Kween said...

some of us like to post too you know...lol

Lāā said...

Well, I hope that you find what you are seeking.

Ddot the King said...

Oh yall have blogs too?! :)

Drama Kween said...

yes we do King...now that I just got done with mine...i can pay your's some more attention...Can King love someone in addition to himself???? hmmmm

TTD said...

i doubt it kween.. but yeah.. im working on mines too. you know, i hardly ever post, so when i do, it's of a nice length (still working on it, matter of fact!)

Lāā said...

Did you get any questions that you are going to answer?

Cool AC said...

That was really sweet. I wonder if guys feel like this after they leave me? And if they would ever tell me?

LOL @ Jackie!

Rell said...

jackie,

coming with the realness lol :-)

Carmell said...

whew! thank you Jackie... i didn't want to go there first!!! i knew you would come through,,,

don't do that shit again, D. send the letter to her not to us. does you no good for us to read it if she never does.

Drama Kween said...

lol...i think we know who runs this Kingdom..go Jackie...lol

Ddot the King said...

It is so sad that a man is considered soft or sensitive for expressing his feelings. I guess some would rather me grab my crotch and call them bitches and hos and that would somehow make me more of a real man.

With attitudes like that no wonder so many women are disrespected in their relationships. You've got to respect yourself before I can.

And that's what real is.

Carmell said...

our comments have nothing to do with respect...

Ddot the King said...

They absolutely do. But I won't debate the issue. Now go play somewhere. I'm busy.

TTD said...

i liked your post d.. i dont think it makes you soft, but i also agree wit kool.. make sure you send the letter to "her".. lol

Drama Kween said...

am i the only one who thought that her was a methaphor for love...

Ddot the King said...

The "letter" is not directed towards a human being.

Drama Kween said...

is it directed towards love itself and you referring to it as if it was a person...that's how i took it

Drama Kween said...

i still can't stand you King...lol
;-)

TTD said...

yeah kween.. im pretty sure that's what he meant too.. BUT if there is a real "she" out the there that this should be directed to, i suggest telling her...

Ddot the King said...

Exactly. I wasn't sure about posting it for these very reasons but I did it anyway. I'll be sure to be more "real" next time. Can't have folks thinking I wear bras...

Ddot the King said...

Ok... THERE IS NO REAL SHE. Everybody clear on that? Great.

Drama Kween said...

king did you delete your other comment..i saw it but now i dont...the "at least someone gets it"

TTD said...

why are yuo getting mad?? there's nothing wrond w/ having someone you miss.. we get that there's not, but nothing is wrong if there was

Grant said...

If the whipped approach isn't working, you can always try "I can't live without you and I won't let you live without me. God wants us to be together. Don't piss him off too." You can e-mail that, but it really works best when written on a gin-soaked cocktail napkin in shaky purple crayon. Trust me on this one. I get all sorts of attention from the babes.

Hey, pepper spray and restraining orders are expressions of love too, you know.

nikki said...

dear d,

i see you getting your ish together, although you need to tame that hellufied ego of yours. don't you know i can't hang out with guys like that??

in the meanwhile, i'll be keeping the lookout for your continued evolution. hold it down, luv. i'll probably be around sooner than later.

love,

love

p.s. and stop calling out my name when that girl does that thing to you. that ain't me, that's her!

Ddot the King said...

I'm not mad. And I never said there's something wrong with missing someone. That would be ridiculous. What I am saying is that this has nothing to do with another person.

Carmell said...

so if you weren't sure about posting but did anyway what you getting mad for. not everybody wants to hear that or read it and if you were did want to hear it then you should have disabled comments... don't be mad

Ddot the King said...

It's cute that you people think I'm mad. Why would I be mad? If you didn't get it or just don't appreciate it then so what. I'll still sleep like a baby tonight.

Now if you want to get back to the respect aspect of it then if you don't want to read about it then keep on trucking. Leaving disrespectful comments isn't necessary because some people don't want to read that either.

Drama Kween said...

ok y'all not defending King or nothing like that, but in the words of Jay-Z, if you don't like my lyrics you can press fast forward...King can post whatever he wants on his blog, and he can feel anyway he wants to about the comments on his blog, the thing is if you do not like what he post, you can always choose to read someone else's...and not comment...

Rell said...

wow, i ain't mean any offend by comment.

At any rate I'm out for the day, later people...

Ddot the King said...

Well I'm the entertainment director around here so if you don't like what I have chosen for the days entertainment then you need to move on.

If what you call an "outburst" entertained you then congratulations. But don't come here and attempt to mock me or what I've taken my time to write.

Carmell said...

OMG you are really being sensitive!! oh well whatever

TTD said...

ok.. i think everyone in this comment section could use a drink! i know i could! lol!!!

chele said...

I enjoyed this. I don't think that you wear bras. Nothing wrong with being sensitive.

Drea Inspired said...

I'm late, but anywhoo...

I love this. And though I honestly can't relate, I'm still feelin' it. It's good to see things clearly...except no imitations. Nice.

Drea Inspired said...

BTW,

The title reminded me of my second favorite song, Stevie Wonder's "Hey Love"...love that song.

nikki said...

brownsoul, i was thinking that same thing! i have the best of stevie wonder and i play that cut over and over again.

Drama Kween said...

Good Morning All :-)

Leesa said...

Sadly, I don't know all of the songs mentioned. More sadly, the ones I do know are embarrassing.

MZPEACH said...

Okay........
I loved this post Ddot.
Jacque was only kidding.
Koolbreeze was only kidding.
Some of you all did need a drink yesterday.
I was thinking the same thing to Brownsoul..lol.

Ddot the King said...

Leesa I think you commented on the wrong post. :)

GP I'm sure they were joking. But everything isn't funny to everybody. Let's concentrate on today's post shall we?

MZPEACH said...

Um I was a off yesterday, so I decided to leave a comment. Ain't nobody trying to have a conversation over here.

Ddot the King said...

Now who's the sensitive one?! LOL!

MZPEACH said...

Whatever..lol.
Shoot, don't be trying to be slick then...lol.
"Let's concentrate on today's post shall we?"...lol.
