peach iced tea tastes colder bought from the store across the street

my senses are warmed by sunshine and smoke as I reglue my falsies

I have a slight pang in my stomach from all the bbq I ate

every and each of these moments dripping sweetness just like you

Heartstrings exposed but not a finger in sight

Now you know you built your boundaries right

sit with the things that scare you, fear is a remarkable tool

statuesque

built slowly over time

one after another seems so arduous

have I ever known broken like this?

there is still a-motion in pause

Do you feel joy?  Really feel it?  Every day and every hour, even in trials and tribulations?  If not, what would you have to change to feel it?  Who would you have to ask for help?  Where could you find the safety to feel joy? What does joy feel like to you?  What does it smell like?  Taste like?  Look like?  When are you the most happiest?  When do you feel Carefree?  When and how are you most fed?

Sometimes people will come into your life all razzle dazzle and they’ll shine and flash so brightly at you that you will miss very important warnings that this is not the best choice for you in this moment.  Sometimes that persn will try to get in your way, try to keep you from your path, but like a horse swats at flies, you have to stay moving forward.  Do not let their obstacles become mountains in your mind.  You can try to keep me from my friends, my things, but I won’t let it affect me or even annoy me.  I will prevail.

Everyone wants a slice but no one wants the cake

you say your love is real but I just witness fake

Forever relishing in what is, could be and will be.  Forever speaking my truth and working the be the persn I see myself as.  Forever working harder, smarter and better than I was.  Forever grateful for every single moment.  You can only ride a rollercoaster one of two ways- eyes open or eyes closed.  Here’s to living life with my eyes wide open, screaming at the top of my lungs with tears of joy streaming down my cheeks.

I suck out all the venom and I spit it to the earth

You wanna keep me poisoned but I know what I’m worth

You’ve been spreadin’ stories like wildfire

you’ve been lying through your teeth

But I stay completely grounded

you won’t pull me underneath

Even when you’re scared and you feel everything is falling around you and you worry no one loves you and you cry and cry cos you feel so dang helpless, remember that somewhere there is a small little dog who desperately wants to lick your tears and love you and tell you how important you are.  There is love in the world even if it’s just from little animal friends, if you listen, they will remind you of what love feels like and you will heal.  Your darkest moments only allow the brightest moments to shine brighter.  Remember that you are never ever alone and if you don’t have a small dog or animal, there are plants too and any single one of them would love to touch leaves to you or stand strong while you hug their trunks, they love you too.  They communicate in love, they know love and will always listen.  Remember that the darkening of the sky is how we can see the stars.  Morning always comes, there is always goodness again.  You can do this.

Praises the darkest parts of me, these depths that make me shine

The sun and I are the same, we grow together, alongside and interwoven.  She feeds my leaves and I in turn shine brighter to ease her workload.  She helps me blossom and I turn my face to her in gratitude.  All good things

Like a moth to the flame, you see nothing but me.  You’re holding so tight, but now you could release

[ardentcoyote]

The river is a master of surrendering, letting go and giving in to the flow.  I so often hold way too tight to my desired outcome, not voicing my needs or expressing my true feelings about something.  Here I am, taking a deep breath and LOOSENING MY HEXIN GRIP on shit.  Let it breathe, baby,  let it all just marinate in it’s juices.  Goodness is on it’s way, it wants me bad!!!

Welcome back to my personal power, the parts of me I lost in the past year and to the parts of me I thought I’d never see again.  I am full, whole and on top of my game!!  Hi me!!  I missed you!!

Stepping into your power isn’t easy.  So often in media we only see fierce, evolved and self accomplished femmes, or the shadow which often manifests as insecure, unsure, stagnant femmes.  The path is much more diverse, rich and palpable than it is perceived.  Power is not gained overnight and then carried indefinitely.  Power is evolving and then falling down and getting right back on the growth train.  It’s hard work people!!!  But every time you get up again, it is easier to fall and recover.  Power is a muscle, ya gotta work! it! out!!
