Sometimes…ego shows up as madness, disguised as constriction. The squeeze, the breathlessness…the attempts to quiet you. Ever so elegantly and politely. That is far more dangerous than any out of control fire. By the time you realize it’s happening… It could be too late. I speak of my own self detriment. My own need to…

Pedestal
You’d rather concedeYour wants and your needsThan to see me plainlyAs you pray on your knees There was a timeI was the love of your lifeBut day turned to nightJoy turned to tears I cry I don’t see love hereYou say it’s worth itI’m not sacrificing…My spirit for your bullshit You want me to stand…
I’m So Good – A Limerick
Y’all want a bitch you can’t have(Say less)I may swing towards itMight fight back.You think pretty equals stupidThat big titties means I’m dumbThe equation I’m producingDoesn’t include anyone’s son You dropped the ballI ripped the rim off…You light it upNo hits and cough(Like a bitch)May as well bow downI know you saw this crownYour bottled…
A Difference
In raptures of the vocals to a song I love, I smile to myself. I…melt inside, if you will. To every which way that is possible. The lyrics hit a pinpoint in me. I lavish on the idealism…when I realize the song is about me. My ex would never… The joke floating around is –…
🥀The Fray – Animated Series🥀

White people never know either 😂 Latin Americans? Automatically. 🤣 I am Afro-Mexicana. My biggest issue is…
Realization

Inward
This has been the topic of conversation since last night – and one of my mutual followers mentioned something worth repeating this morning. Before I share screenshots of the post – let’s talk about getting in our own way. The person who commented is a lifestyle coach. It’s literally his job to help people help…
