I am not a human being,
I am the deity of profound perceptibility,
touch me with your terrestrial senses and die,
blessed or cursed for eternal life.



(My autobiographical book will be out soon.)

you dont like poetry
especially mine
why cant you understand
that every word is not exaggerated
but it is exactly what I think
just covered in silk robes
and crowned with flower petals
why can't you understand
that I dream of
green forest
and crystal clear oceans
that I am not trying to be edgy
I'm just trying to understand
myself

After months of sleeping next to you, today I woke up, rolled over to see your face, and was __.

a) in love
b) complete
c) nervous
d) alone
e) all of the above

Teach your children love
And the importance of affection
Show them what love looks like
In your words and kindness
Tell them that they are always deserving of love

If you fight in front of them
Show them that that is not all
Show them there is love behind every door slam and every walk out
When you are crying by yourself
Show them that you can cry together
That even when you are not loved, you are not alone
When you give up on each other
Remember to teach them to not give up on themselves
When you decide to leave
At least pretend
Show them that your love for them is too strong to break a family

Because when you don't teach your children that there is love in everything you do
They will grow up expecting hate from the ones they love
They will grow up in the comfort of loneliness
And they will grow up dreaming of a family
Because they never knew they had one

your body will sting when you remember his hands
and you'll start contaminating your skin with the touch of strangers hoping all remnants left of his finger-tips fade away
self-love sounds like a foreign language since he walked away
but loving yourself is a process, long overdue
his name is not a synonym for contentment
I know there is a longing deep within your bones and it feels as though he's the only person who could satisfy it
this is your body whispering that it is time to love it back
you are allowed to lay down your weapons and give up the war with yourself

Your chaotic laugh
arranges my disorders
adjusts my serotonin level
regulates my heart rate

So start with a smile
and see
how this cure happens
wave by wave

Watch me
Bloom and shine
this time
