Always Growing

[soulspassion]

I carry the scars and the burdens of my past

The scars from giving my all to people who only stabbed me in the back

And words that stung like a whip to the skin

The burden of taking up space and not being what’s expected of me

It is I who has to change my perspective of what others view me as

and know I am not their words

I am not their assumed thoughts

I must keep in mind that

Not everyone is going to hurt me or dislike me

Not everyone is cruel as the people I’ve come across

The future is this unsettling fog

with mystery and fear

The past is a whirling tornado 

with thoughts and emotions 

I can never seem to clear

You don’t need a man to validate you

You are a queen, a goddess on your own 

He let you go because you are strong 

Stronger than him, stronger than he will ever be

That is why he let you go, his ego couldn’t handle the hit 

His ego can’t fathom being blinded by your light and strength 

he could never stand as tall as you

You pluck all my insecurities off like a petal of a flower

Throwing them To the ground

So those petals can die

And new ones can grow

To reflect my true beauty

My face glows with each ray

From the sun kissed heat

You shower me with love and affection so

Vivid colored petals could grow

I feel so deeply 

I love so deeply 

I hate so deeply 

I am a tornado of emotions 

I either feel everything at once

Or nothing at all.

Sometimes I forget how sharp words can be. Whether it’s to myself or to others. Either way I’m left with blood on my hands and tears in my eyes.

I am a garden of mystery

I grow through the mud and the fog

I flourish in light and soak in every ray

I am every flower and herb

Nothing can keep me down

And nothing can kill me off

I soak in the heat and dance in the rain

I am more powerful than you could ever imagine

I pour for you And a glass to you. I pour from my own cup Until bottom is clear. I give so much to my peers that I didn’t realize the end was near. I give and I share to everyone so dear. nothing is left for me not even a drop. But I give to all as if my life depends on it And for that, this is where I must stop..

You are my biggest fan

But also my biggest critic

You throw my taunting insecurities back at me

You cheer me on during my best days

And you make me doubt abilities on my worst

I just want to reconcile our differences

You said the last thing you wanted to do was hurt me. Well that was indeed the last thing you did.

Self-love and self-care are not selfish

What’s selfish is when other people take every piece of you

Just to tear it up and give it back

Hating you is the last thing I want to feel because it means I still have a part of you latched on to me weighing me down.

My frequency is open to you frequently

You are the only one I want on my channel

So please, tune in

I want to believe that everyone has good intentions

But they don’t

Some people want to suck the life out of you

Because they don’t have any more life left in them

Like the beauty in flowers, I welt too

Two months later I ran into you again

You had her by your side, but your eyes never left me

- P.L @soulspassion

My energy is sacred to me. I will not allow you to disrupt my frequency with your white noise.
