About me:
TL James, born and raised in Houston, Texas, studied English at the University of Houston and Texas Southern University and graduated with an MBA from LeTourneau University, where she cultivated an interest in biblical studies which is woven throughout the trilogy. As she developed the storyline for this labor of love, she worked tirelessly with her son constantly tucked around her waist. She often found her inspiration in the sound of her son's small steady breaths while he slept. After eight months of sleepless nights, The MPire trilogy was completed.

the rewrite: I RODE DOWN THE LONELY HI-WAY With the top down, the sounds of the ocean waves mixed with the soul of my 8 track player Michael Jackson crooned, “I Wanna Be Where You Are” My Blues bled into the dark sky My eyes were on the road but, I see her at every mile marker, and with every star that sparkled above I pushed on the gas as my heart raced Where am I going? Anywhere she might be Teasing my soul hoping she was headed to me Whoooo… I took that corner too fast Slow down and live with the memories My 8 track player switches songs and my mind flips and trips as Michael Jackson sings, I Wonder Who Lovin.. You I fight the winds from blowing me over into on coming traffic I fight my heart and mind and stay focused as push buttons on the 8 track, The Jackson 5 sing, “The Love You Save May Be Your Own” I pass slow traffic and get on the straight and narrow and reminisce Like when we were lovers in the night She is sitting on my love Her hands spread on my chest Her lips and eyes smile Feeling my love We were cruising after we had climbed a mountain I’m watching her mountains rise and fall, and drip on me She and I create streams that lead to her river I hold on to her firmly I sing along with Michael Jackson, “Never Can Say Goodbye” Whoooo… I almost ran off the road I’m squeezing the driving wheel with all my might; my hands are numb I look to the passage seat I’m alone on this lonely hi-fi-hi-way I check my seat belt, adjust my mirror, and try to adjust to the fact…she is gone I turn the 8 track up, and hit repeat… and again Little Michael Jackson sings, “I wanna Be Where You Are” I hit the gas and head home

Happy Mother's Day My Sister, I pray that your day is filled with joy as you take care of the lil gift, son-husband, that God has given you. I love you sis!
I can’t take back what I’ve done in the past Nor can I retaliate on all that’s been done to me, At best I can learn from experiences I’ve had Shake the chains of regret and be free,
The future has its own set of tests and trials So why dwell upon yesterdays woes, My road only changes if I’m willing to change it The door of opportunity is never closed.
I must free up my psychological arms To make space for better things to come I should dispose of the junk from the past And seek the source where all natural treasures come from.
We are the wardens of the prison in our minds Condemned by guilt, regret and sorrow, But I stay at peace, when I learn to release- Yesterday, and appreciate the hope of tomorrow!
