Invisible Ink or a Blank Sheet of Paper?

Sitting here looking at a blank sheet of paper. Or is it? I glanced and thought I saw something on it but I’m not for sure. Is it possible the paper isn’t blank at all, but merely covered with words written in invisible ink? Do I have the right light to uncover the hidden message? Or am I merely making something out of nothing? How do I uncover the truth? I could be making something out of nothing. It could be just a regular sheet of paper that says nothing. Absolutely nothing. I could’ve misinterpreted what I saw. It wouldn’t be the first time that’s happened. Sometimes I think we… well I… make something out of nothing. If there’s nothing there, there just isn’t anything there! There isn’t anything I can do to make something appear that isn’t there in the first place. The tricky part is knowing the difference. Knowing if the paper is blank or if it isn’t. Knowing if your situation is something or if it isn’t. Could it be so simple to just ask? It probably is as long as you ask the right question. Is this invisible ink or just a blank sheet of paper?

As the song changes by Pandora

“Sometimes I feel good… at times I feel used”… That’s about accurate Alicia. Though I don’t know your purpose for using me. Maybe just because. Maybe you don’t take me seriously. Maybe that’s just you. Who am I to judge what you do? If I don’t like it I should change the situation, right? Fortunately for you, the good feeling outweighs the used one.

“Now that it’s over stop calling me… come pick up your clothes”… Preach Beyonce. You chose this path. You really did. I still wanted to be friends because that’s all it should’ve been anyway. You didn’t. Oh well. So since you didn’t want to straddle the fence then, don’t do it now. I’m content over here.

“Time on my hands… since you been away boy… I ain‘t got no plans”… Sorry Mary. SKIP.

“Some people work things out and some just don’t know how to change”… Can I be both Boyz II Men? I feel like I’m in both categories. I work things out with the assumed “right” people but for the assumed “wrong” people I don’t know how to change. If only I knew which was which for sure…

“cuz I am superwoman… Yes I am”… at least I feel like I am today Alicia… Maybe it’s the month of November. I feel like I’ve conquered it already.

“Nobody wants to be alone”… True story Usher. For this I think people settle for less than they deserve. I mean you can do bad all by yourself but what’s the fun in that? There’s nothing like being able to share the good and bad times with SOMEBODY… ANYBODY…

“But inevitably… you‘ll be back again”… Hit the nail on the head with this one Mariah. Some just can‘t be shook even if you wanted to shake them. What’s important is knowing the reason why they come back and if they act right the second go round.

“I wanna be the one who you believe in your heart is sent from heaven”… Story of my life Keyshia. No extra comments needed.

I’m done for now… Sometimes a song can say what you never could or make you think what you never would. It's great when someone else's logic speaks to you. Kudos to Pandora this morning.
