September 21, 2013 was technically the day I started my new life with the man of my dreams. However, that’s also the day I died. Granted, there was no eulogy or casket, but I died within myself. My heart continued to beat and my lungs functioned as normal, but my soul died. I was left with nothing more than the shell of an existence.  It’s funny, we never realize that everything that’s good to us isn’t always good for us, until the unthinkable happens—cavities, diabetes, lung cancer—we never know until the diagnosis. Have you any idea what it’s like to lay with the enemy or break bread with your own murderer? Any idea what it’s like to have the sun rise and set on somebody else’s ass? Maybe you are familiar with what it’s like to drink from the cup that’s laced with the poison of your own demise. Have you ever really fed on hatred, or even choked on deceit? Perhaps you have, but most deny the fact that they, too, have consumed this very meal. This is how it unfolded in my life and I am going tell you exactly how that poison tastes and how deception feeds the hunger of a starving heart.

A failed young blues musician would do just about anything to become a success...even sell his soul. Based upon the legend of Robert Johnson.
