the empty wineglass sits at the edge of the coffee table after Iβve written another poem about you it needs to be refilled so my mind gets tired of being inspired by the memory of you
Iβve written dozens and dozens of poems about our story of lust and love but today I found your purpose with you I found inspiration and motivation to make myself better hoping you could really love me hoping you wouldnβt see me as just a sexual commodity hoping to make myself worthy of you and while now I see it was a delusion of mine to do all of these things for your love it still helped me to become better than before it still brought me the resilience, strength and courage to start living the life I always wanted to live and plan the future I had always dreamed of with you and after you- I became the empowered woman I am today and for that I thank you
never set out to become a feminist but somehow ended up becoming everything opposite of what I was taught a woman should be in my young girlβs mind a husband and children should have made me happy even when I observed all of the women around drown in misery always complaining about their husbands and kids I thought that maybe with me, itβd be different and when I found myself in my grown up conditioned woman narrative I almost tried to die in that reality and knew it was never for me and for a while I searched for answers in others until I looked within and understood, i alone am magic I alone without a man am really enough and the only one responsible for my happiness and to make my dreams come true all a man ever did was drag me down and made me feel like the dirt on his shoe or like an ornament to take out at times for his convenience and when I realized all of this thatβs when I became an unintentional feminist, unapologetic and unashamed to be the woman I always wanted to be but had been too afraid to embrace until my middle age
Iβm looking for the rhythm of a new heartbeat to fall in love with A heartbeat that goes with the flow of my intense intimacy A heartbeat who doesnβt call me angel or princess only calls me by my name a heartbeat whoβll fall in love with the real me and not the idea they have of me or the persona I play on social media A heartbeat who can handle my crazy and chaos A heartbeat who accepts and understands me and never tries to change me
me and my family have immigration jokes for day on end and some of my friends think thatβs sick and awful but its one of the only things that helps me and my family keep our sanity in Trumpβs American is making fun of our misery and misfortune
itβs how weβve survived generations of corrupt governments and wannabe dictators its how weβve passed resilience and strength to future generations
sure, we may cry at first as the life weβve worked hard for starts falling apart and our plans for the future are shattered because of a few megarich and corrupt maga idiots who run our government but right after we wipe our tears and break out in jokes and laughter especially now that whatβs supposed to be the land of the free gets more and more fascist and we swim closer and closer to nazi waters the only thing we can do is try to find a way to smile, to laugh, to find a bit of joy no matter how fucked up in may seem in this dystopian clusterfuck
Iβm pregnant, it’s yours, I want to keep it I start crying βJust get rid of it you tell me he fairytale died that day
Iβm at your apartment drunk And you;re drunk, we fight, then we kiss And you take me in-but then you feel guilt And kick me out I The fairytale died that day
Iβm at your apartment I want to hold you and kiss you I yearn for you You imply I canβt be trusted The fairytale died that day
Donβt fall in love with me he said to me right after he got off from me he wanted to make sure I didnβt get the wrong idea So he dotted his Iβs and Tβs of casual fucking And I didnβt go into a love hysteria But it was already too late My intense emotions couldnβt wait βI love him, heβs my love kingβ I was already thinking the truth is No one can control a borderlineβs mind And itβs not his fault of mine that I catch feelings easily even when you use me sexually It wonβt matter what you say My mind wonβt be swayed
Diseased hip evicted, shiny aluminum to replace it 6 inch scar needed to better my life 80 minutes of the Drs doing their magic Cutting into me and making me whole a recovery period of 6 weeks or so they say third time trying to fix my hip hopefully the third time is a charm all of this just for being born broken, Damaged and different
everyone admires my strength and resilience and all I dream about is one day not being defined by everything Iβve had to overcome, of ne day not being called resilient and being seen as more than the turmoil Iβve had to endure and over come
The winds of defiance rules my heart I love someone I shouldnβt Who stirs up hate and love within me I feel underwhelmed by everything wonderful in my life The winds of defiance rule my heart And I shouldnβt want to run from my beautiful lover and yet I want to And I desire danger and intensity even if what I really need is peace and calm
Excitement over our new computer I canβt wait to get into those yahoo and aol chatrooms Iβll bet Iβll meet someone and maybe even fall in love maybe Iβll have better luck find a man online than I have in real life maybe the man I find will stay and become my soulmate
burning house, no way out Stuck in bed as I call out for help no one comes, as the flame gets closer and closer to me and there is no way out, is this the end of me am I about to meet God or Satan or worse end up in purgatory
Mason like the jar was his name being a fuckboy was his game He tried to act wise beyond his 23 years But he was still wet behind his ears He thought he could deceive me and lies and lies and lies he told me told me he lived with a roommate when it was really his soul mate He wanted his ice cream and cake but I saw through his con game And right away I stopped our lust filled affair My respect I needed to firmly declare
