vulnerability either kicks you in the *** or deeply rewards you. there’s no in between.

**** a man
who i will never be good enough for
my race
is not what he wants
my faith
not up to par
my outspokenness
to much to handle
yet here i am
clawing onto our marriage
and for what

i’ve spent most of my life
avoiding big feelings
ducking from the intensity
that so often leads to disappointment
passion? look away.
anger? let’s table it.
grief? i’m fine.
love? as long as it’s not deep.
happiness? don’t get used to it.
excitement? a waste of time.
so when life threatens to jeopardize
my built-in anesthesia,
i don’t want to wake up.

people pick up their pens
drawing
writing
mapping
deciding
all in black and white
but none of those lines are logical
because reality is truly just many shades of gray

It wasn't meant to be.
But it happened.
When reality was accepted, all was well.

the kinds of people that scare me the most
are the ones i feel like have known me forever
when they’ve only just walked in.

Look;
When did relationships
Get defined
By a read receipt?
Will we
Now
Only measure intimacy
By a tweet?
What do we have left,
Why can’t we
Go back
To laughter
In a diner seat

i heard somewhere:
when one door closes, a window opens.
how strange,
that it is a window which opens,
and not another door.
does the slammed door
create such an intense pressure change
that the window is forced open,
and all of that same energy that left can come rushing back in?
so really, it is not a new opportunity,
but the same cycle?
over and over and over again.
