You have the right to feel some types of way about life
& to cry your eyes out
Cause you miss being hugged and kissed
By someone you like
& you long for a walk
Hand in hand in the park
It’s ok, you are ok
Things will change

One day the Universe will ironically make you realize that you dodged a bullet
And the trauma you’ve endured will finally make sense
Hope this brings a smile to your face – today

In the name of
À greater picture should
I conform to politics?
It sounds counterintuitive
To temporarily crush my freedoms
So to further my liberties
But when I think about it
This may have been worth it
If only I
was better at
Kissing asses…

Even tho I may project
My own fears and biases
I am #blessed and fulfilled
Regardless of how I feel
Into my sometimes
blurry lenses I
Get pushed and pulled back
Before my own eyes
All I need is a shift
A bit of perspective
For my hopes and my dreams
To ever become clear
Then promplty energized
Open heart, Spirit High
I give Joy another Chance
And Love in again

I’m thinking too much – always
So I look for answers in books, podcasts, TED talks and the like
I introspect and adjust
Write and try
to become the best version I can be
I’m growing
Tho I’m not sure how this matter
If there’s no recipients but myself

In the matter of the heart
It’s only right when it feels good

Don’t EVER let inflated male egos
Deflate your sense of self
