There is very little compromise in my life
I am peaceful but aptly purposeless
I make other peoples problems my own to solve like a jig saw puzzle
And throw them away when they reject my solution.

I accept love in the ways I receive it
I am grateful for love in all the ways it has been shown to me
I’m at peace if romantic love is not a part of my story

Why is it there is an invisible thread between all women
An understanding no words are required for
The fear, the pressure, the internal clock
Shout out Charli

I remember it all
Down to the stretch of my shorts and the tie in my curls
The way you lingered; daring to get closer
As if a magnet drew us together
I thought; so that’s what fate feels like
But now I wonder if that’s how antelope feel as a lion closes in
If the tug in my gut was my body sensing your threat
I never was a good runner
Or maybe I knew you’d catch me regardless
But I remember it all

I find myself admiring the stained glass
Of the church next door
I watch the way the light changes behind it

I think that window reminds me of myself

What if the thoughts never developed
If I could leave them in the dark room
Better yet still on their film roll
What if I could take each step
Without words knocking on the back of my teeth

What does shame look like?
A desperation
To be young
To be wild
To be as desireable as she once was
Be so ******* for real with yourself babe
You’re not aging gracefully until you accept your age
