My Toxic Traits

Dating profiles; are nonsense- they’re meant to be quick, catchy, show a slice of your personality and if you’re lucky you come off a slither interesting. But it got me thinking ( typically ) what if we wrote about the not so attractive parts of ourselves? What if we skipped past the typical conversation points […]

Red

Red. Fiery. Bubbling hot, Sometimes when the feeling gets too overwhelming,I imagine myself tapping into it,Just under the surface of my skin,Rage soIt pains my chest,Trickling into everything I touch,Damaged. Used goods. Past its prime,Overdue. Doubt fills my ever thinking mind,Apathy seems to follow me. April 2022- R1

I know I am late to the Malcom Gladwell fan club, but I am here anyways, might have taken me a while 😅. Needless to say, after picking up this book- I couldn’t put it down! To say it was eye opening and in some ways provided many many aha moments. So, this week on […]

Always Remain

Memories are a funny thing,They creep up on you when you least expect it, While you’re doing something mundane, And a thought will hit your senses like a hurricane, Suddenly a pang will strike your chest, Halting your progress, Memories will always remain,Things you assumed buried away many moons ago, Send you reeling to gather […]

My Dating Mistakes

I feel like I am always beginning posts with disclaimers, but if one ever needed one- it’s this one. I will start off by saying I am in no way done with making mistakes in general or dating related. In fact I am very much a newbie when it comes to dating and opening up […]

Sour

It still makes me sad that you never wanted me as much as I did you, I did all of the right things, brought you into my fold, So openly and with deep affection, Why wasn’t I good enough? Knowing what I have to offer, what about me didn’t suit? I was myself, I let […]

Book Review: Yellow Wife

Instagram really got me good on this one, after constantly seeing this book on my feed at the back end of 2021, beginning of 2022 I thought why not give it a try. Must be gathering traction for a good reason, and if I’m being honest in some ways it disappointed. This week on the […]

Longing

Life seems to be brimming with opportunities we cannot have,Longing for a life worth leading,Longing for someone who doesn’t love us back,Longing for the body you once had,Longing for the career of your dreams,Longing to be noticed for the person you truly are,So many ebbs and flows to life, but all of it remains the […]
