I almost drowned in a whirlpool of shame today because I made a mistake because I’m an imperfect human but I breathe in deeply self compassion and grace and accept this is a small blunder in my life and it shouldn’t take up too much space in my mind And I needed to be a friend to myself Understand I won’t always be flawless- Afterall I’m only mortal
Praying for peace At times, when calm evades Trying to always be better Regardless of what others think In the best shape of her life Cause of her routined exercise In the best moment of her life And no one can stop her
Anger trickles in throughout my body I didn’t get enough sleep and the monster of PMDD is creeping in I scream at the universe for playing a certain song on the radio And I get annoyed by everything I hate being so sensitive and triggered by the stupidest shit I hate being mentally ill I hate how the smallest change in my routine causes me to spiral into nonsensical circle of fury
the prettiest stocker/receptionist on the Eastside of Athens
I exist between stocking and typing I exist between boxes and documents I exist between hip pain and carpal tunnel I exist between grocery clerk and receptionist
new leaves spring up in April and I have hope once again that everything will be okay as God shows me his love through the beauty of the changing of the seasons
I divorce myself from drama I marry the calm I divorce myself from lies I marry the truth I divorce myself from faking it I marry being authentic I divorce myself from self hatred I marry self love
hope appears in the leaves dancing on an almost spring day and I sit in stillness and silence wondering what it means Admiring the splendor of nature before me understanding how beauty is found in the ordinary
The hands of ego and pride kept them apart They chose themselves instead of following their hearts it was tragic to see how many lies they weaved I don’t love her, I don’t love him they held on tightly to their anger, went back to their safety nets it was more comfortable to do so then to fall back into their chaos
so comfortable I take pics like these….it’s me and my thigh high boots against the world..lol
Finally comfortable in my skin I’m no longer afraid to show off my majestic beauty my curves comes one of the seven wonders of the world and my face is a mosaic of my colonizer and indigenous ancestry and now I grace the world with my beauty posting endless selfies in various poses some people may find it narcissistic but if you possessed my goddess beauty would you try to hide it?
Cover me up in rope and tie me up every which way you want It’s fine, it’s okay honey, I’m used to it by now Men and society have been tying me up since I could breathe So a real rope won’t bring me much harm take control of me like you own me, tonight I don’t want to think It’s not much different from the way every man in my life has treated me so do whatever you want with me and make me your ultimate rope bunny
I used to want a lover who looked at me like I was magic now I want a lover who sees the real me and doesn’t leave someone who doesn’t scare easily when I cry in front of them and instead holds me and offers me kind words of solace someone who accepts that I’m both angel and devil and doesn’t hold it against me Someone who’s persistent enough to get through my emotional walls even when I’m closed off because of trauma this kind of lover won’t be ideal and will have his own set of issues but it’s the only kind I’ll accept from now Because lovers who have looked at me like I was magic quickly disappear when a strong wind of my insanity ruins me me for them and they say, “fuck me, I didn’t sign up for this”
this bitch has had more transformations than she cares to remember
My story is important to share, it’s important to write down but I don’t want to do it from a place of anger, revenge, or ego It’s strange to say this because for the past 5 years Anger has been my major inspiration and motivation to feed the narrative of how everyone has been a villain and I’ve been a victim It gave me a sense of martyrdom that allowed me to find peace for a while acting like everyone is a problem While I just flounder around being wronged And while I have so much compassion and love for this version of me It’s not who I want to continue to be It’s not how I want to be perceived because I’m more than being angry and vindictive I’m also kindness, goodness, empathy, and love And when I share my story-I need to remember these things
basically how I felt by the muse who inspired this poem-hahaha
Is this our new beginning? our own personal spring when we delve into lust and almost mistake it for love Where we’re almost lovers Or is this another false dream And you turn once again into my unreliable love king?
lately I try to be a bigger person but last night was different running into you when I’m at my hottest, when I embody the picture of an Incan goddess felt like sweet revenge, it felt like karma served to someone who made me feel small it felt like the universe smiled on me showing me once again how I am winning and that anyone who’s fucked with me will get what’s coming for them and while I did feel sad for you because of everything you went through I still felt like a queen, a goddess with confidence oozing from me compared to you who will never fit into the new me
I was your short term adventure of lust you tried to disguise as love It was fun for a while while we were both in denial until you got tired of me and left My broken heart, I had to atone I don’t know how to go on everything feels so wrong
