Darkness submerges our being from head to toe, leaving a trail of broken minds and lost souls Our reality is not one of truth or kindness but one of greed and deception The brightest of us all cannot shine under the pressure of a looming black hole

Her memory
This body has been beaten and bruised Cursed and ridiculed laughed at and critiqued underfed and overworked overfed and underappreciated This body has been told more than enough to stick that it does not belong That it is not enough That it is too much This body has learned to feel threatened by the presence of others This body has been taught pain How do I begin to search for peace in a space that has never known it? How can I ask this body for the love it has never been shown?
Faithfulness
I must not hold out for those whose hearts do not seek my own. If I breathe for you, you must breathe for me. We are one of a greater whole, I feel sorry for those who do not see it this way. Those who are incapable of truly valuing the space someone may take up in your life. The fulfillment they may bring when given the proper chance. We all just want to be treated with care, to be touched by kindness, to be seen in the dark, to be held through despair without being looked at as something that is broken or bruised. To be accepted where we are but also pushed to be the best we can be. We all deserve someone who is willing to help us be ourselves to the fullest, for whatever that means; but I will no longer be that person for a stranger with a familiar face. I will not withstand their blows as they disregard my abilities. They do not see me in the dark but from my darkness they can be seen. A gift I will no longer be sharing so willingly.
