I am writing love poems again

I think, 

i have come to terms with its nature,

Love.

I have accepted its paradoxical features

How it is both strong and weak

 at the same time.

Both fragile and resilient, 

when it needs to be.

And i am satisfied with it.


I think i am writing love poems again

Letting my pen impress onto paper 

the possibility of another chance

Flirting with the possibility of doing this again

Holding hands and

 slow-dancing through life with someone

Or nobody

I think, 

I am writing love poems for myself this time...



I have been writing love poems again

Hoping to catch the rythm and fall into a love song

Whose hook and chorus will take me to neverland.

I've been dancing in fields of wildflowers

Letting their heady scent cloud my mind 

I've been dancing barefoot in my journal

Letting my inkstained footsteps tell this story instead

I've been waltzing barefoot to a qgom beat

Recklessly revelling in the freedom that healing brought me

And i have been dreaming about love again

That a stranger with beautiful eyes 

will brush his soft hands against mine

Or not.


I have been reading love poems again

From my Father

I have been letting His love wash away 

the disapointment of that last time

I think,

He knew all along that i'd get this joy back.


I have been listening to love songs 

And the melodies are starting to sound sweet again

His harmonies have begun calling out to me once again..

I have been writing love poems again

And i think,

I think i can feel myself coming alive again...

Daddy's Girl 101 Part 2: Love Cannot Be Earned....

  The more that I walk this Daddy's Girl journey, the more observations I find myself making about girls (or people, if you will) who are thriving in their Daddy-daughter relationships.  This time I found myself harshly judging somebody for making a mistake that I deemed really fatal. I just could not wrap my head around the fact that somebody with a present father could let him down like that and then it hit me that actually, it was these people who have the privilege of being born into loving families with stable parental figures who made all these seemingly silly mistakes. Why? If I had that kind of background. I told myself, I'd never do anything to jeopardize it. I'd show them that I was worth loving because I would never let them down. This was my line of thinking and I was neck-deep into judging people I did not know enough about when it hit me! Of course they made mistakes! Life is about making mistakes, learning and growing from them, not about trying to walk th...

The Grateful Series: Intro💫

My beautiful readers🎉! On the 24th of December it will be a year since i wrote my first post, since i first let you all in to my mind and my heart and i can honestly say i have grown so much since then. What i originally intended as a platform to express my thoughts, and my deepest, darkest feelings somehow turned into a sort of post office where i can send you all my love and light and poetry. Somewhere in the middle of the year i went from writer to artist, from complaining about straws( yes! That post happened this year!😂) to declaring my love for the human race and it's flaws. I discovered that i wanted to do more than just analyse things and write about them, but that i also wanted to to use words to heal people. Now, i don't know if i have succeeded but I do know that i will continue working on this all the way into the oncoming year so at some point, it will have to work. I recognize that art is nothing if it does not add value therefore, i am dedicated to addin...

Non-conformist is a label

I am a non-conformist who hates labels. Yes, i see the irony in that statement. I'm still trying to find a way to describe myself without using that phrase because, well, we have already established why. I hate labels and non-conformist on it's own is a label. Before i explain my attitude towards labels, I'd like to point out why i identify as a non-conformist, among other things. The first time i deliberated the word conformist was at a university information session. The recruitment officer asked me to stand up and tell everyone the story of how i came to apply to the school and what the application process was like because i had already been accepted to the university. I remember feeling like being picked on just ruined my chances of fitting in with these other kids. What should have made me proud instead made me feel different and wierd, something i really didn't want because i was already a loner. People tell me that i spoke well that day but honestly, i did t...
