    Time
    Often taken for granted
    It always manages to pass us by
    So when you could days without talking to me
    I was always understanding and always on your side

    I neglected both my heart and my emotional intelligence
    Because love can make us blind, but I was never fully lost
    Part of me could still decipher your lies from the truth
    And finally, the…read more

    • Aww Aiyanna, I have soooo been there. One day at a time. Each day will get a little easier. Just never ever compromise your standard. You are wonderful and you should be treated as such. Keep marching forward. Hold your head high. And on to the next (as I would tell myself). <3 Lauren

    • Wow, this was deep and made me reflect back on some experiences in my life. The line of having butterflies turn into moths was great! Love this piece, it makes you think.

  • Maybe

    Maybe I’m selfish
    I chose to leave you in silence
    Because I’d rather not be the one to get
    you riled up and angry, just to cause us more pain

    Maybe I’m selfish
    For all the times I expected, prayed and
    Hoped that all of my efforts to save us would
    be reciprocated rather than in vain

    Maybe I’m selfish,
    Or maybe I’m fed up
    I watched everythin…read more

    My love, you are home
    You are not just another revolving door
    You are not a temporary place for unworthy individuals
    Who are too inconsiderate to take off their shoes
    Because they’re only entering for one thing and nothing more

    My love, you are special
    I’ll always be overprotective over you
    Not everyone can reciprocate your pure int…read more

    • Aiyanna, This is beautiful. I think we have all, myself included, made some decisions based on lust and not love. We are human. But it is so amazing that you are recognizing where your standards lie and not compromising for anything less. That is powerful and empowering. Your body is home, and it is sacred. Keep treating it as such. You are a rock…read more

  • Only Time Stands Between Us

    Dear future self,

    Do you remember despising our name when we were younger? Not because it sounded or looked weird, but because it was unique compared to our peers in elementary school. Ultimately, the name “Aiyanna” was different but unfortunately we were far too young to grasp the beauty of that.
    Our name, which is of Native American ori…read more

    • Aiyanna, I LOVE your name, and its meaning. My name is Lauren, and ironically, I always hated that everyone had the same name as well. There were seven Laurens in my grade alone in middle school. That means when someone shouted, “Lauren,” there was only a 1 in 7 chance they were talking to me!

      Don’t be mad at yourself for gossip, waiting to ask…read more
