Lemonade
she is a happy ending,
not everyone can wait for.

Being
      the most authentic
            version of
     yourself and not
hiding parts of yourself
          has a way of
            eliminating
   judgemental people
        from your life  
             and you
     will  find  out  that
             being you
                 has it's
                 perks.

              Realize that
       you  are  different.
       Always have been.
            It may take
    awhile but realize that
         you are magic
  not meant for everyone
        to understand.
          
            People will
   question you, but that's
             all right,
     just stay in your lane
              being all  
         magical and stuff.

It's easier this way,
I get it.
The temptation is erased,
so have your space.

Sharing our poetry,
declarations of love.
Words precisely picked,
to evoke emotions.
Torturing ourselves,
is the way you put it.
And I can't help but agree.

Quantum particles once connected,
but separated by vast distances
still move in synergy.
Two souls reflecting,
back and forth
faster than the speed of light.
Inextricibly intertwined,
throughout multidimensional realities.

Sometimes the hardest words to say are,
I'm not ok.
earthchild Feb 2021
I am not the woman I used to be,
my eyes perplexed by what they see.
There is no familiarity here,
new skin sits upon these bones.
Rebirthed from the earth,
rising through the dirt.
Layers of sediment,
grit and mud.
Building new homes,
within myself.
