I Have Feelings / A Journal of Sorts / 2.11.18
Read more: I Have Feelings / A Journal of Sorts / 2.11.18I have feelings. They exist. They are anything BUT dormant. I am literally not fooling anyone by pretending I don’t have them. I am insecure. I am not fooling anyone by pretending that I’m not anymore. I am insecure about my feelings and my thoughts and my hair and my personality and my skin and…

Yesterday / A Journal of Sorts / 10.28.16
Read more: Yesterday / A Journal of Sorts / 10.28.16For so long I have thought that I was renewed. That somehow, over the years I have blossomed into a person separate from my past. That I’ve become someone completely new, but Lord, was I wrong. I am finally seeing the pattern, I’m finally understanding who I am, in the utter core of my being.…

Fresh / A Journal of Sorts / 9.20.16
Read more: Fresh / A Journal of Sorts / 9.20.16Today feels different, Like a fresh chapter, a blank page begging for ink and color. Perhaps I have realized something, perhaps today is when I become anew. Perhaps tomorrow starts something wonderful, perhaps the future is grim. But in this moment, a moment of sensation and focus, I feel different, I feel new.

Strangers / A Journal of Sorts / 2.11.16
Read more: Strangers / A Journal of Sorts / 2.11.16I fall in hope with strangers, it happens everywhere that I go. I fall in hope with strangers, Who smile and never will know. I fall in hope with strangers, Who are kind to strangers too. I fall in hope with strangers, Ones flashing a passing smile at you I fall in hope with strangers,…

Problems / A Journal of Sorts / 10.26.17
Read more: Problems / A Journal of Sorts / 10.26.17I guess I shouldn’t really call them “problems”, even though they are problematic. They are the inconveniences of a white teenage girl, barely hardened by life, still blinking in the light of the sun. They aren’t real problems, the struggle isn’t truly real, at least not for me. The things I call problems are so…

I’m a Worm / A Journal of Sorts / 12.14.18
Read more: I’m a Worm / A Journal of Sorts / 12.14.18This will be another one of those things that I look back on and think “how pathetic” but screw it. I am a worm, creation is big and I am small, little, and slimy and gross. All I can do is writhe in my own dirt, flailing gracelessly. Trying to make sense of my miniscule…

Don’t Look Back / A Journal of Sorts / 1.30.16
Read more: Don’t Look Back / A Journal of Sorts / 1.30.16When you leave, please don’t look back. Behind you is the things you lack. Behind you is the strife and pain That will make the old in you new again The silent haunts that’ll lull you to sleep, The promises you did not keep. Regret is a lurking hawk for prey A waiting growing voice…

Watch Your Tongue / A Journal of Sorts / 3.11.15
Read more: Watch Your Tongue / A Journal of Sorts / 3.11.15Oh, what little good has come from many words. My tongue sits restlessly in my mouth, with all the burden of the highest mountain or a volcano on the verge of eruption. A word for the wise; the wise reserve words. Fools twist words without intention. And understanding is lost in the speech of the…
