I used to think chastity
was a five year old who
knew nothing about ***.
The kind of innocence
I longed for as an adult too much.
Now a ****** who knows everything.
I still hate that to this day.
Yet what’s wrong  with
a tiger striped dove?
Fight in the flight or visa versa.
A lot of people in our culture
view purity as something *****.
Yet a lot of people in our culture
view the ****** as way too cool.
Where is the balance?
There has got to be one.
Chastity to me is staying
true to the one you love.
There is so much more!
this is one of my extremely rare good days. I’m fighting something extremely difficult right now. I’m seriously trying to stay off social media BUT… this post hit me.

You Wanted Flowers So Bad,
But You Forgot to Water Them.
They Cant Grow On Their Own
And Neither Can You

Empires have fallen
For a beauty lesser
Than yours
Helen of Troy would pale by your side

If I say
Sail away
For the day
We could lay
On a beach with the finest of sand
Hit a bar
Play guitar
Go too far
Name a star
Dance whilst singing along with the band
When we're done
We could run
To the sun
Have some fun
Take my heart  heal my soul hold my hand
Don't be shy
Let's get high
Laugh and cry
Question why
We keep trying to keep up with demand
Up the game
We're the same
Call my name
Burn the flame
Take a chance and let's see where we land

winnie the poem
I take you with me,
through the time..
Make your thoughts flow
in wind like a rhyme.
You the one I seek,
to whisper in your ears:
Do not speak..
You can punish,
I will forgive.
I am like a raindrop,
falling on your lips..
Who am I?
Just you and me..
To be nothing..
Here to be.
We are infinite,
not existence..
Here we are,
through the distance.
I let you live,
but not to be..
To be a wonder,
in a world to see.

Another year living, another day gone,
The past isn't giving the wisdom I want.

I'm searching for answers, I lay in the rain, I stare at the moon while I'm begging for change.

My face is now creased, from years of worry, I laugh at my young wish to grow up in a hurry.

The right answers never come, I grieve over wrong choices, I'll stay in my bed berated by these voices.

And it's October, but the leaves are still green, the seasons aren't seasons and I am not me.

Twenty seven I might be, but fourteen I still feel, I look at the life I've built but none of it seems real.
Happy Birthday to you, they shout in my room, but it's just a Friday, and I'm losing my youth.

how many times
do I have to unbutton your pants
to hear the words
"I love you."
The answer is zero. I wrote this while going through some intense emotional turmoil and It's a simple one but I'm very proud of it. Moral of my story: don't waste your time on people that dont deserve you.

Go push your way through

the forest, to the fortress --


and set yourself free!

Invariably,
You prefer to come
To me in the dark.
"You're more my temperature then,"
You once said.
I'm not much of a thermometer,
But I am the eurythmy
To each syllable you give
In such settled shadow.
A play of murmurs and fingertips,
You once named this.
Always I see a wreath in your hair,
In colors of Persia,
Textures of night,
And the soft blended lines
Of you I know
Infallibly.
Vespertine - occurring in the evening.
