Liquid – A Collaboration

I had the pleasure of working with my best friend again! Thank you again bestie for this. You’re truly incredible. Please go over to his page and say hi https://divingdeepwithchristopher.wordpress.com

Piles of Syllables
leave this doubtful mouth
Some rhymes are just
better left unsaid
When it battles the test
of my contested mind
Please let this go
Let me go unheard
Let These delicate words
go smooth as liquid
down the drain
Like gasoline to the fire
filling up my lungs
that burns inside my flesh
Until there is no more
abstraction of thought
left for meeting
in the public conscious

– Message from Christopher

This one is for those who feel trapped. For those who feel like they don’t have a voice. For those who build and strengthen the walls around their hearts even further due to the betrayal and mistrust they have suffered. But I’m here to tell you personally that although those walls around our hearts are necessary and protective, I’ve also learned that it is certainly possible to let yourself open up those walls in the right context. The person that I have done this collaboration with, was that one person that I found that I can trust. I hid myself for such a long time. I’ve been through the struggle. I know how it feels to feel so alone. But you don’t have to be alone anymore. You can overcome this. You can be heard. You can have a voice. As long as you’re careful, and have the proper awareness and vigilance of knowing who best to let in and trust. While also being wise about who has your best interests at heart from those who do not. It’s dangerous to be vulnerable. That’s why I say to be wise about who to trust, so you don’t put yourself in danger. But I also want you to know that it is possible. There is still goodness left to find in this world. Although it’s not in quantitative abundance, there is still a minority group of us out here in the world that still have love, empathy, and compassion left to give. So if you happen to find that type of person or even a good group of people, then nothing can stop you and them from tearing down those walls and opening yourself up. You don’t have to suffer in the darkness and silence alone anymore. If nobody else cares, then at least WE do.

So I thank you with my whole heart bestie! The lovely and beautiful, thecreativechic. You were the one who finally tore my walls down. ❤️

My warrior women

For all my ladies, all my warriors, and all my queens – this is an ode to you. Yes, YOU!

be confident
be strong
never bow down
don’t be defined by anyone 
don’t allow your past to determine your path

and when someone tells you all the things “they think” you cannot be, you keep pushing forward and make it known that you cannot be stopped, you WILL NOT be stopped

let others see the fire in your skin and the crown’s power upon your head. You are bathed in sunlight for a reason. You are right here and right now for a reason. We need to be building each other up and seeing the true beauty in ourselves and others 

never seek the approval of others, for it’s not needed as you already know your worth

so, all my beautiful ladies, this is for you. I believe in you, I stand with you, and I am part of you
