I pour my heart out onto paper.
It’s safe there.

manifested will hide
and hidden will manifest -
life and death playing.

A smile is like an exit
Out of the room,
Where you don't really want to be.

As the struggle continues, the battles do too but the glory does as well....the mercy does as well...the blessings do as well! With difficulty comes ease.God is great ....Your  Maker is merciful &  sufficient in disposing of all affairs. Don’t ever give up hope or doubt your ability to make things happen. Work extremely hard , play even harder , be good to people, and stay in gratitude. By God , the rest will take care of itself. By God this is just the beginning. You will thrive in a way that makes materialistic a non factor, your seeds will excel even greater than where you stand, Listen to his whispers and stay in touch with God and he’ll continue to strengthen you in a way you never imagined. allow your mind to travel beyond your desires. , and love will find you when the time's right. Claim it for it is yours when you’re ready to receive it’s glory!

words can slip sharp as knives
cut deep into the consciousness
subconsciousness adding -
to the mystery of the self-
the self you try to keep on an even keel
not too much selfishness not too much overextending good works toward the rest of creation and creatures,
especially the ones who are juggling words that can cut sharp as knives, cut yourself and cut deep into the ones you try to love.

They will tell you
All poetry has been written
There is nothing new
Under the moon
But let me tell you
They don’t know you
You are as unique
As the DNA that exists
Within your frame
The ripples on your thumbprint
No one ever had the same.

Listen...

You have something to say
Say it proudly
Say it boldly
Never let them scold you.

Never let them make you go away.
I love it when someone tells me to keep writing. You should keep writing too!

Heavy
Is what I carry
In my pockets
In my heart
Weighted like sand
Filling my throat
The fear under my eyelids
Cracks of light that creep in
Thoughts under my skin
Dying just to be let out
But I stay only silent
Let the fog rapture me
The pain can sink in
Past my skin
to the bone
to new days
from the same me
//On life and control, or lack thereof...//

Ladies,

Today, if they’re not gracious for that simple feather kiss in the middle of the forehead.
They’ll never be appreciative for anything else you have to offer...
Don’t be angry when people cannot love you the way you want them too.  It is your sole responsibility to mind your boundaries not theirs.  If you cannot find synchronization then let them go.  Is it disappointing and painful? Of course but no more than continued disappointment.  Love yourself enough to Love yourself enough 🌹❤️🌹
