Grieving

I’m learning to grieve & my humanity shapes my ability to do so. This Free-Thinking Friday post is composed of the words that have been floating in my mind. I hope you can resonate with them.

Untitled Poem-1/12/15

When I was younger, I used to find myself writing beautiful poems about boys who didn’t deserve them. It took me years to realize that I deserved the same amount of energy and attention that I was giving to those who didn’t know how to reciprocate it.

Dear Mom,

An open letter to my first and only role model. I wrote this for no other reason than to express my gratitude for her love for me.

Healing

Healing is a decision. It is an extremely involved and intentional process, but it’s necessary for growth and a healthy life. Decide to heal today, you deserve it.
