Now the skies could fall
Not even if my boss should call
The world it seems so very small
Cause nothing even matters, at all
See nothing even matters
See nothing even matters at all
Nothing even matters
See I don't need no alcohol
Your love makes me feel ten feet tall
Without it I'd go through withdrawal
Cause nothing even matters, at all

The lyrics captivated me as I drove to Jay and Bey's spot from the airport.

After spending the day with my Pops on some random shit, I felt a lil bit better. Not that I had all the answers to my problems, but I was able to talk through things with ease and without judgement about what I truly felt. My world was surrounded by so much chaos as of late and instead of pumping brakes and correcting shit, I was chugging along trying to push through. All the while, other shit starts to happen that piles on and then dealing with that gets overlooked cause more shit happens; a toxic, dysfunctional cycle.

The only thing that ever helped with feeling free from all that was my girl and my babies; they were usually my escape. I was so busy now though with work; I didn't get much time with the kids and the time Tae and I did get, some shit was always popping off to fuck up the vibes.

I glanced down at the GPS on the screen to see how far I was from my destination. Noticing the date on the clock, I thought about Valentine's Day coming up and tried to quickly think of a few things special to plan for the ladies in my life, especially Tae.

When the song on satellite radio changed to Case, my mind cleared and a settled feeling spoke to me.

Guess what I did today
Those were the words I said to you
It was last May, don't know the exact day
In my hand there was a ring
Then you told me that you loved me
More than anything in your life
So I asked you would you do me
The honor of being my wife (yes I will)

An instant flashback of Tae and I dancing closely full of emotion after just getting engaged with this in the background popped in my head. That same emotion overtook me quickly.

Before she told me she wasn't ready yet.

I wondered how she felt now.
