My greatest journey in life has been remembering how to consistently be myself, consistently love. It’s still a work in progress but, I’m finally letting my weird be weird to the people who find it weird without feeling the need to suppress it. Dreamscapes The bathrooms are finally clean, I can go in them –Continue reading “Poetry Series – Dreamscapes”

Poetry Series – Thank You, Love
I’m still learning how to let myself be loved. I know we’re all born with the ability, such a super-power, but so many of us lose it along the way. I’m working on recovering my powers. I think of my relationships as rehab for the soul. I’ve let a lot of people love me inContinue reading “Poetry Series – Thank You, Love”
Poetry Series – Breakfast Interruptions
I remember hearing or reading somewhere that our dreams can only show us things, people, and faces we’ve been exposed to in real life.

All the time, actually. I took the opportunity to explain to him that I think if we stay open toContinue reading “Poetry Series – Dream Girl”
Poetry Series – Imagination
I’ve never quite understood boredom. I long for the moments where the world quiets down enough, slows, so I can escape reality and wander through my imagination. It wasn’t until reaching adulthood that I realized not everyone’s imagination survived childhood. I believe the desperate need to preserve mine is why I defaulted to silence soContinue reading “Poetry Series – Imagination”
Poetry Series – Bruno Mars It’s a W-Rap
I’ve said that I hate life so many times as I was hurting that I want to take this opportunity to acknowledge that I love the way life works. I love the way we feel drawn to people, often before understanding why. I love the way that inspiration, encouragement, comes in the shape of peopleContinue reading “Poetry Series – Bruno Mars It’s a W-Rap”
