There’s Something
Something in the way your blue eyes look back at me,Like a lens into parts of you no one else gets to see,Something in the way your fingers trace the contour of my body,Filled with more than desire; with a thirst to discover every part of me, inside outSomething in the way your arms envelope […]

How I Am Exploring Minimalism
A while back, I wrote a blog post about how I wanted to work on being more rigidly eco friendly and though I have made some headway- I know I can do more. And while the idea of minimalism isn’t new and it’s not necessarily trendy at the moment, but while writing out the recent […]

My Toxic Traits

Red
Red. Fiery. Bubbling hot, Sometimes when the feeling gets too overwhelming,I imagine myself tapping into it,Just under the surface of my skin,Rage soIt pains my chest,Trickling into everything I touch,Damaged. Used goods. Past its prime,Overdue. Doubt fills my ever thinking mind,Apathy seems to follow me. April 2022- R1
