And Yet Another Love Union

These are a few photos taken during my cousin's wedding. The photo above is of my diva-filled sister. She doesn't think she is, but we all know the truth ;).

This by far is my favorite photo of them all :)

My Farewell Letter

Good morning loves!!
I firstly need to apologize for my lack of posting - I've been extremly busy these last couple of months. Due to my many activities, I may have to discontiune the project 365 :( , because I realized that I dont have the time to post photos up everyday as I thought I did. But, I will still try to post up photos and poems as much as I can :).

So here is one poem I wrote last night
Enjoy! :)


My Farewell Letter

My fingers are heavy
As I draw the curves of these characters
Forming into words that will create this
Farewell Letter
See I can no longer fight the feeling
That the existence of what was
No longer is
We found ourselves in a scene
Of what-ifs
We never were definite
We fell in a hopeless place
Where our dreams of love were
Intertwined to create a nightmare
That our hearts were not prepared for
We both had a dream that we were both meant to be
But reality gave us a check
Showing us that we were living a world of fantasy.
I wished to ignore the plain truth
And go with the beat of my own heart.
Because I realized that I could not part
With the sound of your voice,
The smile of your eyes,
The love in your character,
And the beauty in your heart.
You know how to love a woman
And to treat her as a queen.
But I’ve realized that the relationship
Being built by our hands
Was creating a blind spot in the vision of our potential future
We loved the idea of love
And being in love
But failed to realize that love itself
Was rallying against us
We wanted to be
Meant to be
We wanted to love each other freely and endlessly
With no conflicts or regrets
But we knew the possible product of our love
May not be the best for both of us

So with the pain of a broken spirit
And heaviness of my heart
I ask you to be free
And love another as you please
And if, in fact my assumptions were wrong
And it was simply bad timing,
Then we may find ourselves in each other's arm

But for right now,
This I give to you
In hopes of something better

This is my farewell letter

-Valerie Anselme

My little Precious :)

Isn't she adorable?

Day 83

SQUEE

(String Quartets Everywhere)

I had the opportunity to take a few photos of SQUEE and their live performance

at Fazenda Coffee Roasters (http://fazendacoffee.com/)

This was actually my first time going to this cafe and fell in love with it 

- especially with the fact that they have live music from time to time.

Today they played a couple of  beautiful pieces from composer Joseph Haydn 

who is also known as the "father of stringed quartets."

There will be more performances throughout the month every Sunday, by them and other artists.

Check Fazenda Coffee Roasters on Facebook and  Twitter  for more info :)

Day 82

This is a wool rag that I saw around Boston Wharf.

Knowing that these are usually given to the homeless during the winter

It makes me wonder who it was for and what was their story,

Or if this was a person's usual place of rest - and this was to represent their territory,

Or if it was up for anybody else's use...

Day 81
