pieces of nature 💛

How blessed are we with the gift of life? How lucky are we to witness the day dress and undress itself, as our souls rest? May we never forget.. everyday we get to take a deep breath.. we are blessed 🙏🏾✨

pieces of the moon

we marvel at the moon that is full, forgetting that the waxing gibbous had to stretch herself so the moon can be full of itself. 🌔

pieces of the moon

The depths of my mind are endless

Much like the edges of the craters in the moon

Back and forth they go

Round and round

Deeper and deeper the depths grow

Much like the depths of the moon

The footprints left there grow deeper and deeper 

The curves of each print are endless

Some are Ridged and sharp 

Some are Smooth and soothing 

Much like the craters of the moon

The depths of my mind are endless

Full and bright like a full moon

Full and dark like the new moon

Waning and waxing

Waxing and waning 

Going through phases of being half full and half empty 

Much like the growth of the moon

The depths of my mind are endless

Grazing through the stars

Resting in space 

Smiling at the unknown

A slither of light in a dark room

Hiding in a thick cloud of chaos

Much like the crescent of the moon

Each day passing 

Each moment lived

I grow and grow and grow

The depths of my mind are endless 

The phases are endless 

They grow and grow and grow 

From dark to light

Light to dark

Much like the moon

Just like the moon

I am the moon

Pieces of Pittston. 😍

I’ve been learning to enjoy the simplicity of the small town I live in. Although I would love to expand, I am enjoying the big things I am birthing in this small town.

my addiction

My addiction cause a lot of internal conflict I know it is not the best thing for me but when everyone has taken every bit of what’s left of me….it’s the only thing that brings me peace. I became addicted at a young age. The joy for life was slowly turned into rage. Nothing around me made any sense but ..as soon as I took one hit, everything clicked. I had not a care in the world. I would just curl up in my bed with a book. And in those moments the only protection I had was being covered by sheets decorated with my favorite heros. as I got older I became more addicted. the high I felt was better than the reality I was facing.

To be continued…..

dear black girl,

if i could capture the stars, id pluck one right out of the sky and place it in your heart so you’d be reminded that you are filled with brightness. id capture your tears in jars and pour them into the sea so you’ll know that your feelings expressed in these droplets weren’t in vain, but that they will be recycled for only beauty and life, to be the reason behind art and reproduction. your smile will be used in dark, barren tunnels to light the way to a better truth. id tell you that your eyes tell a story and when listened to, they have the power to inspire by sharing the very things you’ve felt you could never say. id give you a magnifying glass so that you may discover the map your ancestors left for you to explore , painted on your skin. continue to shake the world by letting your voice be heard, because when you speak, the earth quakes.
