I adore your wrinkles
more than your salt trails.
I want to see your smile,
they are the bandage to soul.
Spread your blessing through
your joy.
smile often, life is too small for the frowns
Road to glory is
bumpy lumpy.
Gory to walk 🚶
in glory.

Road to
Achievement
always seems
obscure but an
enthusiastic
makes it obvious.

Plus
determination,
focus  with a
courageous
positive behavior
makes the
ride go on.


Wish y'll
a lucrative
ride as time
goes on.

I am broken.

there is nothing
beautiful about that.

brokenness is painful
and ugly and terrifying.

but no matter what,
I do not need you to
piece me back together.



yes, I am broken.

but I don't need
to be fixed.

This time, It's different
Have varied reasons to celebrate

Some overcame the tragedy
Others are thankful to healthy fate

Some look forward to normalcy
Others found positivity to emanate

There's one common trait
In trying times, we did cultivate

Is to cherish the uncherished
And relish this time to originate

Though,we still have a long way to go
But, we found our reasons to contemplate

I thought I made a mistake today when I again equated  my self worth to numerics.

However, my life is worth more than numbers on a scale.

I have spent years learning to love myself.
I have spent months teaching myself helpful and safe patterns that honor myself.
I have spent weeks unlearning all the negative things I have heard from society about what a body should look like.
I have spent days helping others do the same through talking, art, music, and drama.
I have spent hours exploring my body- my temple.
I have spent minuetes unconsciously making new positive associations.

And I will spend no more seconds hating numerics in relation to my body.
when you realise,
that you can get out..
of any bad situation,
that you hold your world in your hands

you instantly become capable of anything
i'm proud of the strength i hold now, i wouldn't be holding it if not for the hard times
i look at myself
compared from then and now
and i am proud

i just am, proud

it took me so long,
to look in the mirror
and          see      myself

i felt so invisible
i basically didnt exist

im so sorry
to past me
you did not deserve to be treated so bad
by the one person, who shouldve had your back

me
with love, to me.
i'm different now, id like to think
reading the past is as strange as it seems

a girl, so lost
i see

its hard to bare, the words of her/
i see into her,

so many years of pain, filled with resentment
for herself,

misunderstanding of the fact,
that she needs a reason to exist

she just does
a response to a poem i wrote 2 years ago.. that was a response to a poem i wrote 5 years ago.. with love, to me.

oh honey, you don't understand.
we are not running away.

to run away, you must
be leaving something behind.
there is nothing for us here.

we are not running away
from the lives that we have.

we are running forward
towards the lives that we deserve.
