the wind blows a little colder
let's me know its time
suddenly i know all i need to know
half a year you burrowed in my mind
incapable of just forgetting
how could i
when cemented yourself
into my life
when you went out of your way
to make yourself mine
when you gave me no other option
but your lies
That does it!
My heart got trashed again.
It's time to get renters insurance.

I learned
to plant the seeds
of happiness.
There are flowers
blooming
where the scars
used to be.

They’ve said
I wouldn’t -
But I swear I would
They’ve said
I couldn’t-
But I swear I could
They even said
I shouldn’t -
But I swear I should
And I will
Oh my,
and I did
Simply because,
I never allow
No one to stop my blessings!
Not a hater!
Not an ex!
Not even a hex!
Nothing!
Not even cancer :)
Simply because
I am enough
I am strong
I am stronger
And the best of it all
I am FREE OF IT ALL
Simply because,
I AM BLESSED!
The past few years I’ve been dealing with some illness That required me on numerous occasions to take some serious time out,  to find my way back in.
One thing I discovered along the way….. I’m still human.
Often
I  ponder

about the purpose
of dreams

and why the mind
isn't merely wiped clean

and reprogrammed
every night

when moonbeams
breach our windowpanes

and
kiss the skin
