why is “time” used as an excuse for the victims as if I haven’t lived my whole life to the beat of a broken clock?
alarms raising suspicion
ever time things feel too good,
waiting for the other shoe to drop, because the other shoe a l w a y s drops the moment I take too many seconds
to affirm the power you have over me. every single minut…read more

if “happiness is a butterfly”,
you are a bumble bee.
honey suckles seep
with opportunity
to propogate potential.
the unversal gift
of the life // death // life
the ability to embody
a honeycomb
transmuting
persperation
into pollination
finding a melody
in the hymn song
of the heartbeat
solice in the comfort

My shadow looked at me and said:
“Live.
I am gone and there is nothing you can do about that.
No matter how many tears you shed
lingering on pages bleeding in forbidden ink,
you cannot bring me back.
My time here is done and I have ascended
into the graceful arms of the great goddess above
but you…
you are still human,
so act like i…read more
I think a question that a lot of us ask in the post break-up mess is
Why do they get to move on so quickly when they hurt me? Why is it so easy for them to find someone new as if nothing even happened?
I’ve realized that the answer is present inside the question.
They.
Hurt.
You.
You were the one left traumatized by their action or i…read more
I don’t have resolutions and despite popular belief
I really don’t know what I’m doing
(especially going into this next year.)
Instead, I know more about who I am not
& I know what I will not do.
I will not wait.

To the one who took a passion,
aligned with her soul mission,
and birthed an entire community.
You are deeply appreciated.
My journey as a poet and intuitive writer started just two short years ago and I’ve officially been a member here for 1/2 of that 🙂
I’m not sure how I found my way,
but that magic moment unlocked
a source of…read more
I’m tired of living in uncertainty
what else does it take until I find someone
anyone (hell, anything at this point)
who is certain about me?
why is it always a fight for motherfuckers to see my worth?
why is it that as soon as I feel hurt
show someone that I am fallible
that suddenly my texts are left on read
our memories feel like a…read more
tomorrow marks 2 years since you left
breaking the entirety of my being in ways I didn’t know were possible.
but, I’m not sad anymore.
I can finally say your name without trembling
and my heart doesn’t skip a beat anymore when I think about you.
Don’t take this wrong and think that I don’t still love you
because I do,
I always will

WE SAY THAT OUR ACTIONS ARE DONE IN THE NAME OF GOD.
The almighty creator who can do no wrong and across all doctrines
speaks of mercy, peace, and humility.
What kind of benevolent God would sanction this?
Did God tell you to murder babies in their sleep?
Incinerating incubators
Massacre lives that have yet to begin
while mothers hold their…read more
