Because, What Good Comes from Not Being Kind?
I cannot stress enough, how important it is to be kind to yourself. Learn to be patient with yourself. Forgive yourself every day because you need your forgiveness. You need to give yourself the gift of forgiveness for every mistake, every failure, and every loss.
I Write Because
I write because it feels like breathing.
I write for myself and for the people who feel the way I feel but do not write.
Maybe. I Write About Love.
Can a writer write
About the things,
They know nothing about
Have never experienced…
But make it sound like
These things are the things
Which consume them?
Be Still
Insecurity and fear are loud, And beg to be heard.

I hope reading this makes you realize that you too are extraordinary!

When it’s too late…
I’ve watched a lot of people allow
pride and/fear rob them of true joy.
I Don’t Make Promises Anymore
The versions of me,
I irreparably broke,
With every single promise,
I made, bent and broke.
