F sharing thoughts of irrationality
Whether it be that small moment that you end up silently questioning for years, Or that huge wake up call where true colours are revealed, where you’re left feeling like somebody ripped your heart from your chest, the fact is, Betrayal is inevitable

betrayal
they ask me nothing of myself, nothing of my mind, nothing of my values, nothing of my morals, but speaking of themselves is easy, my appearance may be part of who I am, but it does not define me

surface value
It’s difficult, the thing we call trust, It’s hard when it’s broken, The worries it brings, It follows you around, Abruptly approaches you, when you don’t expect, when you’re not prepared, But it’s always there to remind you, Of that putrid feeling, On an empty stomach, That shock, Betrayal, The sadness

trust issues
If I have found someone to love, Why do people think their god would be opposed to love in its purest form? Free from the physicality?

sexuality
It takes a year, for the pain to leave my veins, for the memories of you to fade, for the cuts in my soul to heal, for the rhythm of my heart to change when I’m around you, to forget your touch on my mind, to forgive the universe for meeting you, to live life like you and me had never happened.

A year
do you know how it feels? to have to look a certain way? to act a certain way? do you know how it feels? to fight against a backwards mentality? to be sexually objectified? to keep quiet to appease fragile egos? do you know how it feels? to be treated as though you are replaceable? to be treated as though you are incapable of possessing your own entity? do you know how it feels? to be treated as though the best thing you have to offer is between your legs, rather than what circulates within your mind? do you know how it feels... to be a woman?

do you know how it feels?
the loneliness came in waves, deep bitter crashes of the blues tide your beach was my sanctuary, you kept me safe and dealt with my insanity.

the island
There's a peculiar kind of beauty that can only be experienced with the innate knowledge that the moment is fleeting and the most intense beauty can only be seen in the presence of both light and shadows. For it’s often in the loss of a thing that its worth to us becomes most precious and by letting it go with grace we can best savor its purest delights. Realizing that the pain runs so deep only because the beauty ran so deep and that without it having once touched us we wouldn't now know the emptiness of its loss, our grief will eventually turn to thankfulness that it ever touched us at all, and we will be left awed by the mystery of its haunting.

Letting Go with Grace
Through the depths of despair I remained gasping for air Fresh air, a fresh start A mended, wholesome forgiving heart You, a walking paradox, Me, collateral damage Maybe one day you’ll rid me of my baggage Until then, I’ll try to repair the wreckage
