I'm trying to love myself more. I'm trying to remember that my words have meaning and my actions shake the earth. I'm trying to realize that i am created from love. I'm trying to remember to brag about myself, tell silly stories about my life for maybe someone out there would like to listen to what i have to say. I'm trying to remember that I am the hush noise hidden in the air. I am the waves crashing against the rocks. I am the laughs shared. I am the melody of the birds flying high. I'm trying to acknowledge myself.

I think i told myself So many times That silence is the answer Because when i talked Everything felt wrong Only other voices spewing misunderstanding I believed talking was a weapon used for destruction That my silence will create a bridge But i was wrong The words that spilled, flowed softly Who listened To what i had to say My tongue is my creation to share I speak words of empowerment I speak to create

The drizzle of rain And slow hum of that song Played on repeat To give me consolation That you leaving an Empty, dark hole Was meant to be Cause they told me Blood is thicker than water But water has given me life While this wound wont heal I feel it in my veins The pathway from there to here has made feel pulled. Pooled in this blood Drowning from the neck up My heart is pushing harder to stay alive.

I have fell down many Times that I've lost count No broken bones But a bruised soul That may never heal. I have fallen down too Many times. My heart aches from Pushing. My body can't take anymore Like fine china. I have fallen down too Many times But will rise up many more. I am the sea. Vast in depth, breaking At the cusp of life. For I am strong and Will rise up with strength. .

sea of strength

I have fell down many Times that I've lost count No broken bones But a bruised soul That may never heal. I have fallen down too Many times. My heart aches from Pushing. My body can't take anymore Like fine china. I have fallen down too Many times But will rise up many more. I am the sea. Vast in depth, breaking At the cusp of life. For I am strong and Will rise up with strength. .

They tell me i look like you every contour shape is shadow of your ages passed down the self reward to hold a standard to look like you and act like you they say im beautiful passed down well if beauty is measured by the pounds i weigh and the food i eat i may be too ugly for my mom reminds me that those carbs are a heavy burden to pay that food is a blessing but a curse cause when you look in the mirror all you see is hate i hope to remind my daughter that food is a blessing and all you see is growth because with food comes love your body is temple to place the things you love inside food is compassion for you sit with the ones you love while you eat i may not know the next diet but i will know that my body is what i eat and i eat love
