Love And Memory

Image
I remember my shaking hands and tear soaked cheeks I remember I would replay the terrible things you said to me I remember feeling stuck in quicksand, forever sinking faster I remember when you told me you finally found…her Her was not me I remember a time when I wanted the “her” you found to be I remember when I thought your presence was the only way I could breathe I remember talking about the day you would get on one knee I remember we were happy All in without a doubt Now your love is what I’ve learned to live without I remember the good and I remember the bad I remember when you hated making me sad At some point it all changed; it’s like a spark went boom Now we walk our own paths Trying to forget there was a me and you Though the memories peak through, sometimes more than I would permit I do not regret the love It’s proof that I lived To live is to love And love can bring pain The love I give will never bring me shame I’ve made my mistakes, and I’ve made peace with them too I gav...

The Mask We Must Wear

Image
We are all shapeshifters Twisting and turning our emotions Don't feel, don't show These are what we learned All on societal terms What do we get in return? Each tear reduced to the excuse of the wind Every cry for help silenced by your own hand Being human has become a hazard The simple task too hard to complete

Month Of Love🩷❤️

Image
 Hello, fabulous people! I have missed you all, so sorry for going MIA. Between work and getting my life back on track, I fell into autopilot; however, I am back now.   First things first, happy February to all the lovers out there! We are only on day three of this cold weather; however, it is still one of my favorite months.  It's hard not to be in the spirit for Valentine's Day. I understand how it can be a little intimidating for those who are single, seeing couples celebrate and shove their love in your face. Good thing you have me here to take the intimidation away. Generally, Valentine's Day focuses on couples and things of that nature. However, it's easy to forget that you can show yourself love and those you care about. It doesn't have to be a romantic situation for you to feel special!!  I remember growing up, and every year on Valentine's Day, my mother would surprise my siblings and me with baskets filled with candy and gifts. It made us so very happy...

Love Refused to Let Us Fade

Image
 Two souls wandering No place to call home they carry pain so devastating they swore to walk the world alone Two souls who know love wanted nothing more than to be near needing it to breathe needing it to see clear now love holds all they fear Two souls who were once flesh and bone now weightless beings no emotion to be shown As they travel this plane neither know they exist both feel a pull they try to resist They know how this goes they would rather stay away from the mess as the heart they once owned feels torn to pieces in their chest Too scared to give in what if there is nothing left to give better to walk the world a ghost than to love and live. No matter the logic love is a force these two souls can’t resist two souls no longer wandering now venturing towards whatever this is. As they meet face to face, sparks isn’t the word as they look they can see one another's scars, pain, and hurt Instead of running they walk slowly prolonging their embrace Two souls once b...

Before Tomorrow Arrives

Image
 The days are long, but that’s what makes the night so sweet. When the world is at rest and you are alone in your corner of peace. When the troubles of the day have faded away with the sun, and the journeys of tomorrow have quietly begun. However, let’s not move too quick. Tomorrow is near and coming fast. All we want is for the sweet night to last. It doesn’t have to be long— just a few minutes longer will do. As I wish that for all your long days, there are sweet nights waiting for you.

Rewriting the Rhythm💆🏾‍♀️

Hello fabulous people! Hope you all are staying warm on this beautiful Wednesday, so it's officially the middle of the week and man am I glad it almost Friday. My week had been suspiciously calm (those who get it get it) like i'm waiting for the curve ball to come and knock me on my ass.  Why is that though? you know when most people are having a good week they just take it for what it is and move on. However if you are like me and find it hard to let a good week be just that then let's talk about it shall we.  Truthfully I don't have all the answers but I feel like for those of us who are high wired and always kept on our toes when it's time to relax or have a moment of peace it's so hard to enjoy it. Life seem to be constantly throwing us through a loop, you know for me personally it's hard to let my guard down even when i'm having a good time because of past experiences.  It just seem like everytime I can exhale and loosen up for a second this strong ...

When Love Turns Into Echos

Image
Why are you still everywhere I look? Hiding in all the corners of my life. Creeping along the borders of my sanity, words I've wished to hear you speak spoken by strangers— words that could be easily said. You just chose silence instead. I still see you in my mind hoping that it's enough this time. Enough to know the love we shared. Enough to know you once cared— even if this is no longer the truth. I know the stars hold my time with you. Someday soon you will become a ghost of my past. Now I know not all love is meant to last.

A Glow That Never Leaves

Image
  Look at the light, the way it shines just right, The way its golden hue mimics honey and sunflowers too. Look at the light, the way it shines through the night— its soft glow reaching the darkest of places, bringing smiles to the saddest of faces. Look at the light as the glow highlights your skin, showcasing your true beauty outside and within. The light you see is the light you’ve always known— the one that shines bright, promising to never let you face the dark alone.

The Ways Of Healing

Image
  The ways of healing are the weirdest of feelings. Not all days are bad— most are good— but the ways of healing are often misunderstood. There are no winners; this race is yours alone— a race made to face all the you’s you’ve tried to replace. Healing can’t be put on a clock; more often than not, that’s when the healing stops. Take your time. Let your heart grieve. Grieve all that you’ve lost so it’s easier to breathe. Acknowledge the pain so you can find relief. Keep choosing yourself— and you will find peace.
