• Rain

  I stood in the rain,Partly to feel it land on my face,But mostly so that it could hide my tears,It has all felt so overwhelming lately,Needless emotions of sadness wash over me like a wave,Filling me with the narrative that I am unimportant,The silence in the room and the void of notifications on my phone,Ring…

• I Settled

  I realized the other day,That I settled for people who didn’t truly love me,I bore myself, Ripped wide open with the blind belief that love would see me through, Only to be left shattered and broken,I settled for charlatans, Men who were unwilling to truly share all parts of themselves,I pushed aside my doubts, Took…

• Is There Such A Thing As A Love Narcissist?

  I’ve been thinking a lot about love and dating and all of its complexities, and it got me thinking about the attention it can garner and whether you can get hooked on the “love bombing”, but not actually be seeking a genuine connection. See what I mean in this week’s post. Is there such a…

• Overcompensating As A Mother…

  With this year’s Mother’s Day freshly behind us, it got me thinking about my role as a mother and the ways in which I do not see the weight of the task ahead of me, and the ways in which I feel I am lacking. This week on the blog, I share the ways in…

• Sweater

  I found your sweater, Casually draped over the chair,Its lilac colour instantly catching me eye,Met with an equal amount of disappointment for you that you had mistakenly left it behind,But also with joy, because I knew I would slip it on,I dive my face into the fabric and take in your scent,Your body was up…

• Glass Heart

  I have a gift for you, I have given it much thought,To find a way to show to you,Just how much I feel about you,This gift isn’t one you can find in a store,Yet it took me some time to gather and collect,Parts of it, dented and possibly bruised,I am handing over my glass heart,Trying…

• Meaningless Sorry

  You come here, palm outstretched,I admit, I have been waiting for this moment and, Now that it’s here, it is nothing like I imagined, As I look around to be sure I didn’t make it up, I realise just how empty your sorry is, A true apology requires a change in behaviour, Done in person,…

• Why Self-Love Is A Revolution

  Serums, potions, workouts, diets, food trends, the list literally goes on and on and on. We are always constantly looking for the next beauty fad or trend to hop on to, if it means we will look younger, smaller, fitter…but this week on the blog, I offer a different narrative. What if we actually LOVE…

• 86,400 Seconds

  There are 86,400 seconds in a day,We barely notice as they tick on by,But, all of mine are consumed with thoughts of you,Anxiety fills all of the silences you send my way,Your time goes by the same as mine, exceptNone of your time is spent thinking of me,If this were the case, I would know,…
