I couldn’t breathe last night.
Everything I said came back to choke me.
Promises made wrapped around my neck
Settled on my chest
& the weight of it all,
stole my breath.

worse things.
"I believe there are worse things to feel, than feeling nothing." - Mildred Ratchet
You are a woman—skin and bones veins and nerves, hair and sweat you are not made out of metaphors not apologies, not excuses. If you grow up the type of woman men want to hold you can let them hold you. All day they practice keeping their bodies upright even after all this evolving it still feels unnatural. Still strains the muscles, hold firms the arms and spine. Only some men will want to learn what it feels like to curl themselves into a question mark around you, admit they do not have the answers they thought they would by now. Some men will want to hold you like the answer. You are not the answer. You are not the problem. You are not the poem or the punch-line or the riddle or the joke.

I love him. Risks. Long nights I wait, search for a sign That there is more or less to this
But I fail. Tunnel vision. Overwhelmed I find myself In a bed of dreams filled with unanswered questions & understated white roses that lay upon dark sheets
I smell him. My eyes closed I see him My lips closed I hear him My body wrapped only in my heart’s desire I feel him
Burning. Dancing in a burning room Flames licking at my heels Heat at his shoulders
But the room is filled with greatness So I love him.

Thick.
It was alive.It endured.It hung around,Thick.Like our butterflies,The laughter,The lust,The hopes,The dreams,The desire,Like the heat,Like the fear,Like the pleas,Like the silence,Like the pain,Our perfect storm.It lingered, It loomed, Thick.Like the love,we made. - J.

Did you notice that the feeling ain't never gone? Did you notice it's the feeling you've been running from?

So why don't you lose yourself for me? What is it that your eyes don't see? Why don't you lose yourself for me?
Jorja Smith
My condolences to anyone who has ever lost me, And, to anyone who got lost in me, Or, to anyone who ever felt they took a loss with me. My apologies for the misunderstanding or the lack thereof. I’m sorry you missed the God in me, And I’m sorry you missed the light. I’m sorry you forgot the way I arose like the moon, Night after night with the burden to forgive, Eager to feed you everything. See, I’m a holy woman. I know what it’s like to give life to a being without ever needing to press skin against one another. I’ve practiced how to hold my tongue long enough, I’m afraid I forgot to say goodbye. I’m afraid you’re under the impression, That I was made to please you. I was under the impression you understood me better. The truth is, I’m a superwoman, And some days I’m an angry woman, And some days I’m a crazy woman, For still waiting, for still loving harder even if I’m aching, For still trusting that I’m still worth the most, For still searching for someone to understand me better.

I hadn’t known I was capable of breaking a heart. I certainly didn’t like it.

Woman, Embraced.
I love in such a womanly way, enduring & nurturing When I was younger, it felt tiring & trying But once I grew to understand my love, it became a strength And my sensitivity became a heightened sense of self, no longer a weakness I am such a woman, embraced, in possession of all my powers nature & nurture.
- J. (March|2016)
Embrace your being. Accept your gifts. Hone your power.
Tell me all the secrets that you have always felt the need to keep to yourself. Wrap your words around the lines of my palms; I promise to always keep them safe. If you let me, I swear to love every side of you that remains unseen.
