Self-Loathing Poetry

No more self-loathing poetry

No more cutting through the incisions of old mistakes

Upon the parlour of redemption

The sinner has spoken

Lies have risen up from the depth of the truth

Like oil from water

.

No more hatred in my lungs

My past is a story to be told

Each day further from the new days of dawn

.

Hope is in my breathing

Joy is in my tongue

Love is in our kisses

Wild and warm

As much as they’re to become boring in a year or two

.

Look at me

I’m not the same

Still learning what’s underneath

The rotten yet glamorous costume of a girl

.

1SP | 𝕊𝕡𝕠𝕜𝕖𝕟 Word | 𝕊𝕥𝕣𝕠𝕟𝕘 Black 𝓦𝓸𝓶𝓪𝓷 This is the Spoken Word of 1SP. It is time for uplift the matriarch of the Strong Black Woman. In this spoken word, 1SP celebrates the strength of his mother, acknowledges the courage of his living grandmother and respects the legacy of empowerment laid by the queens that God allowed to shape 1SP into the man that he has become. He called it Strong Black Woman on purpose. When you understand these keys - they will CATAPULT your faith after belief today!

She sat at the back and they said she was shy, She led from the front and they hated her pride, They asked her advice and then questioned her guidance, They branded her loud, then were shocked by her silence, When she shared no ambition they said it was sad, So she told them her dreams and they said she was mad, They told her they'd listen, then covered their ears, And gave her a hug while they laughed at her fears, And she listened to all of it thinking she should, Be the girl they told her to be best as she could, But one day she asked what was best for herself, Instead of trying to please everyone else, So she walked to the forest and stood with the trees, She heard the wind whisper and dance with the leaves, She spoke to the willow, the elm and the pine, And she told them what she'd been told time after time, She told them she felt she was never enough, She was either too little or far far too much, Too loud or too quiet, too fierce or too weak, Too wise or too foolish, too bold or too meek, Then she found a small clearing surrounded by firs, And she stopped...and she heard what the trees said to her, And she sat there for hours not wanting to leave, For the forest said nothing, it just let her breathe -Becky Helmsley 🌿 🌿 #longing #poem #poems #naturepoetry #treewoman #gaia #womenspoetry #womanpoetry #womenpoets #notenough #toomuch #meditation #consciousness #spirit #spirituality #spiritualawakening #breathe #forest #trees #treesofinstagram #alone #judging #conformity #confusion #whisperingwind #neverenough #treenation #shamarwyn #landofenchantment (at Land Of Enchantment) https://www.instagram.com/p/CaLElqLu5uW/?utm_medium=tumblr

Baby

Baby Rose Baby Violet Baby Jasmin

Will you be named after a flower

Or will I call you Wonder

As my first attempt to call my future to be born

Little girl

.

Sometimes I feel you upon me

Watching how I manage to mess up my life

With all the care in the world

And I’m sorry, and I’m thankful,

You’re the only one that keeps me from falling too hard

In the endless search of my sweet & beloved destruction

The polar sides of me are threatening at times

And I fear, so I stop, and I watch, still, with necessary detachment,

How was I about to mess it all up again, with all the care in the world,

And I think of you, in times like this,

And say to myself:

“I can’t carry on, I’m soon to be 26,

Years are rolling down my cheeks

As they take me down to the waking call,

The road with one way streets,

To "Nowhere’s Land"

Can’t cary on, because I wanna be a mum,

One day, for you, I wanna be good,

I wanna love myself so I can teach that to you,

Teach you how to twirl, and jump and laugh at the face of the pessimists,

The weary and ugly bastards that will tell you off for shining to bright

.

Cause you teach me how to grow, how to mediate,

How to stop being a narcissistic cunt

Who only cares about flying high whatever the circumstances

I ain’t gonna be addicted to my past selves,

Rock’n’roll ain’t only destructive, it’s saying fuck you

To anything and anyone and doing it with class and arrogance

.

I say fuck you to my baggage, fuck you to my doubts and fears

You teach me how to do that and shift with elegance

With all the care in the world

You see that’s something that won’t ever change about me,

Anywhere I’ll go, I’ll go hard,

But you’ll teach me and I’ll learn,

How to love myself better so I can teach that to you

Behind Closed Doors I normally write a lot of erotic poetry, but I felt like getting deep tonight. I’ve been through a WHOLE lotta trauma in my life, especially as a kid. And reading these words to myself makes me realize that I have a lot of hate that I need to let go of for myself. It makes me realize that although the closure is there I need to forgive them, and myself for being so afraid to speak up. This isn’t the full poem, this is just a snippet but I plan on writing a three part poem to my trauma so that I can fully let go of that pain, cause it’s what keeps me up at night. #esteepolanco #musingsofabutterfly #poetry #poetrycommunity #healingjourney #healing #poetsofinstagram #poetrylovers #womanempowerment #latinapoet #womanpoetry #healingpoetry #pain #selflove #letgo #loveyourself #beyourself #childhood #poetrylovers #poetryofinstagram #poet #dominicanpoet #explorepage #followme #beauty #beautiful #amazonbooks #kindle #nookbook #lulubookstore #unpacking https://www.instagram.com/p/CKVhA_LAqon/?igshid=s0wl4fydg0t

🦋 O amor sempre encontra um caminho 🌿 . {The next moment I felt I could breathe again, the weight of all known mountains came off my fragile body and the weight gave way to his embrace. You asked me to stay there. with you and forget all about doubt and insecurity. All words of comfort that came out their mouths have enveloped me they returned the oxygen they had escaped here from within. I'll never feel the same from here, I thought. Despite all my attempts to keep me invisible, love has found a way - google translate}
