Setting Intentions

Have you ever had a day or two where you just felt like you couldn’t get a hold on the day? It just seemed like all things you planned to do are doing the opposite and you no longer know why you’re doing the task. 

Have you had a moment where you started a new task or hobby and once you didn’t receive the results, or get frustrated with the process (i.e. losing weight) you feel like quitting?

Finding my Zen: How The Art of Power helped me with anxiety.

Finding my Zen: How The Art of Power helped me with anxiety.

For some reason one of the first things I learned to do was worry. Since childhood the “what ifs” kept me awake at night. It wasn’t until college that these scary moments were given a name, anxiety. Although many form their own coping mechanisms I hadn’t adopted any that were helpful for me.

Fast forward into adulthood, new surroundings same concerns. With stress levels so high I hadn’t slept or…

I think I want it..

I think I want it..

I wanna fall in love again

I need that late night on the phone dozing off type

He text me I text right back like

I keep my charger to avoid losing a moment to speak to you love

That we hang up I call you right back

Like,” I forgot to say thank you from earlier when you said I was beautiful”

All I did was giggle while silently praying that I don’t sound delusional

Well, I guess I mean infatuation

Screw It

In all honesty I quit

It was hard to come to terms with this that I’ll admit

But I can no longer pretend, make such a struggle look like a success

Its hard, I cant take the denial anymore, the lies, fuck it

Im out

Whatever works is what I’ll do and a 9-5 seems to not be in the picture

I dont see it as a loss just those aren’t the shoes I’m supposed to buy

So Fuck it, Life doesn’t hand me…

Patience

I need to get paid to do this

Because I’m tired of doing it for free

For mental release for temporary stability

My mind aches but my stomach does too

Looking at the corporate folks like I don’t wanna be like you

I can’t even see like you

Same desk for 5-10 years

Biggest fear is a promotion

My minds to creative to dilute to that notion

As I sit in this 4×6 its feeling like hell

Pretending to be…

love

Something so obvious yet hidden Its a way of life rather than an emotion Something automatic not forced

Given without expecting a return

Patient, caring no intent to hurt

Only intent is to care

Its unstoppable and can not be controlled

You can love but you can leave

As well as you can dream and can see

Love is what love is

unconditional, uncensored

That’s love undying,unwarranted

The only thing…

My apologies, dont apologize

My apologies, dont apologize

“But you left”, he says

Voice filled with agony and despair

Not sure if the conversation will solve or disintegrate our relationship

“Look at what you’ve left me with”

Fully aware of the drastic change

I pause honestly I’m just not sure what to say

Could I be wrong? I suppose

I did what was right for us I don’t regret the decision that I chose

I understand your hurt and miss me a great deal the…

My Shoes

Sunny Days are what I long for

But its something I’ve never had

I’ve got more problems than Trump has has dollars

More issues than Nikki has ass

My life is screwed

Hoodrats yelling at me “I’m thinking who is you”

These past 30 days….let me just tell y’all the truth

I’ve been, lied to, manipulated, and ignored

Put out, uninsured, and distanced from air and I cant understand why I cant soar.

I try…
