Some things speak for themselves, as long as you’re listening. Understanding Awareness People can’t understand beyond their level of awareness.Not everyone is self-aware.Not everyone can understand themselves. Much love, until next time.

Poetry Series – Bother
Do you know the willpower it takes to not tell someone they’re stupid as they’re saying something completely fucking stupid? Do you know the reaction time you have to have to catch those words before they launch from your mouth, laced with anger and hate? No one is stupid on account of a stupid belief.Continue reading “Poetry Series – Bother”
Poetry Series – Narcissism, Accused
I worked with a coach that told me that someones we need people around to point out the parts of ourselves that we can’t see. Without a mirror, you won’t see the tip of your nose. If something is stuck in the middle of your back, good luck catching a glimpse without coming across asContinue reading “Poetry Series – Narcissism, Accused”
Poetry Series – Safe Adults
When we ask another person to keep quiet about what we’ve done, we’re asking them to carry the burden and weight of actions that we know were wrong. Often if we’ve put people in situations where they feel unsafe, once the truth finally comes out the sense of unease, and lack of safety will shiftContinue reading “Poetry Series – Safe Adults”
Poetry Series – Controversy
When you start sharing your truth, the people that have wronged you will inevitably protest.

Poetry Series – Liar
I’ve been working on myself for a long time. I’ve been tired of myself for a long time. I’ve resolved to stay by myself for a long time. Now, even when I’m with someone else, sometimes I just can’t help but see the patterns of myself. Liar I hate hearing lies come out of yourContinue reading “Poetry Series – Liar”
Poetry Series – Possibilities
I have a bad habit of setting my needs aside to accommodate the wishes of those who do nothing but take more than their share. I have this bad habit of feeling like a burden when the truth is, I’m human and worthy, just like the rest. What if I push the limits, and putContinue reading “Poetry Series – Possibilities”
Poetry Series – Big Feelings
I have life the best I ever have. I have the support to approach hard things that I never had. Sometimes though, by sometimes I mean every day, anything can make me cry at the drop of a hat. Big Feelings My wife left meI spent hours bawlingSoaking my boyfriend’s chestThe one that lived thenButContinue reading “Poetry Series – Big Feelings”
Poetry Series – Amber Heard, I heard
I don’t know who’s guilty and who’s innocent in this case and quite frankly, I don’t care. But I think there’s a chance, a lesson, to learn a little empathy and compassion tucked away somewhere here. Amber Heard, I heard Amber HeardI heardYou shit on a pillowCan I start by saying –disgusting!I heardYou shit onContinue reading “Poetry Series – Amber Heard, I heard”
