I break my boundaries by self improvement, by always pushing myself to be the best me I can be

by feeding my soul,
doing everything that makes me feel whole
figuring out my purpose - my existential role
“follow your dreams” I was once told
so im living now, don’t wanna regret when I’m old
“Everybody has a little bit of the sun and moon in them. Everybody has a little bit of man, woman, and animal in them, Darks and lights in them. Everyone is part of a connected cosmic system. Part earth and sea, wind and fire, with some salt and dust swimming in them. We have a universe within ourselves that mimics the universe outside. None of us are just black or white, or never wrong and always right. No one. No one exists without polarities. Everybody has good and bad forces working with them, against them, and within them” (Suzy Kassem)

if your mind’s troubled by the emptiness
remember who you are, don’t you ever settle for less
you are fearfully and wonderfully made

I always write about people but when will I be the kind of girl someone writes about?

Like the girls on the cover of magazines
or the leading lady in movie scenes?

I crave the kind of love that sparks literature
one that is worth it, with a future

a story
a reason
a place
a season
if only you got to know the real me - the Phoebe hiding underneath all the mystery

under rose quartz skies you’ll find
a girl who always has you on her mind
oh **** im *******

who would love a girl like me
a girl that has always been struggling to be free
yes she’s fun, she’s crazy, but that just masks her anxiety
peace is a word that’s long gone and missing from her dictionary

verbal abuse always had been a ruse
words exploding like a bomb, she never tried to control the fuse

it’s a never ending struggle
like an unsolvable puzzle

the missing piece is buried deep under levels of pride and mental disability
- it caused my instability

and from it I was never really free.
