A LETTER TO THOSE WHO NEED xxxx

Thursday, March 29, 2018


dear open wound,

you've been used. i can tell by the way your eyes beg for a steady.
you haven't just been broken. you've been trampled on, forcing you to learn how to walk again.
you've been told to deal with the trial, the ordeal, the blow and then, the burden.
they assume you know how. make them tell you how. you've never dealt with this unbearable circumstance before.

this is a letter for those who cram their burden tight bc that seems to be the solution
but, dear aching heart, i want you to know that the stars weren't only made for you to wonder at but,
so you could wonder at the Chief of Steady [firm, secure, stable, constant, trustworthy] [yes, i mean God]

in Him you will find a safeguard. a protector from the tramplers in life. child, He won't only help you walk
HE WILL CARRY YOU + HOLD YOU WHEN YOU CRY
the Father that He is would never force you to deal with it. no. He will take your burden.

dear open wound,
stay that way. yes, clean that wound out, but keep the door to your heart unlocked
so that you won't become numb to the hidden love around.


SOUL GARDENING

you have to gently water confidence like you would grow a tiny succulent plant
quietly whispering love and encouragement but
reminding that no matter what, growth is possible

i cherish knowing that even the fragilest of life can thrive

THE EMOTION GRAVEYARD

Friday, March 9, 2018

a girl i love like a sis told me "don't bury emotions"
those three words slapped me across the face and shook my core bc
i've always thought i've painted my heart in love but what if i've coated the emotions and colored the ones i wanted to keep

what if i do bury emotions

[ my close friend told me she saw a really drab shovel surrounded by rain when she read this. i can't imagine a better description ]

LOVE MEANS PAIN

Tuesday, March 6, 2018


the people closest to you hurt you the most
its a well known fact. people always say its wrong for it to be like this. i say its the only way possible.
does a stranger know your heart?
does the unknown understand what makes you you?
my friend, i think not. so try not to be too surprised the next time a loved one injures you.
remember. you're that human for them too.

[p.s thank you for all your precious comments on my last post.....you guys are the best]
