“Until you heal the wounds of your past, you are going to bleed. You can bandage the bleeding with food, with alcohol, with drugs, with work, with cigarettes, with sex; but eventually it will all ooze through and stain your life. You must find the strength to open the wounds, stick your hand inside, pull out the core of the pain that is holding you in your past - the memories - and make peace with them.”

— Iyanla Yanzant

“Her eyes stare at me but she seems not to see me; she looks as though she were lost in her suffering”

“You weren’t supposed to mean much, I thought I had it under control, but you can’t control the weather, and you were pouring rain and I was thrashing in deep waters trying to keep myself afloat, but I capsized every time. Do you think of it that way? That loving me was like drowning? I know I can be a hurricane sometimes, but you were a wildfire, one little spark and you were off, did you know loving you was hating myself? You couldn’t.”

“this silence between us  is just begging for a conversation

can you feel it? taste it in the air? 

it seems so heavy like a sermon sitting above an altar.

the words are not there but the sensation  of needing a release  lingers, an open mouth between us 

wanting

just waiting, waiting for language to reemerge  or enter

and I don’t know,  you don’t know either  what is appropriate to say 

in a situation like this  where it seems as though all the air  has left the room

and we are both gasping, grasping  at anything that could save us both of us still pretending 

that redemption is as easy as asking for it”
