Growing up is hard.

[Reflection] Age of Transcendence
Why are we all so worried about getting/ being old? Signs of aging are such beautiful things – Each grey hair, wrinkle, mole, and freckle are the small evidences of wisdom we’ve received as we transcend life’s experiences; and overcome the obstacles we encounter as we journey our life paths. Embrace your age! You’re still a beautiful being, no matter what.
[Question] Life Unlimited
How can
the sky be the limit
When the galaxy
is limitless
And the universe
infinite?
[Soul Memories] On a 9 Day
I was once a totally different person
In an entirely different place
than this.
Once,
when I was…
Ignorant.
Allergies
I never want to be kept
under wraps;
Sometimes they get dusty
and
I’m allergic.
Sick Day
Sparkly nails and coffee cups,
a rumpled comforter,
sunlight on my bare skin…
Today feels like fuzzy socks
and comfort food
and not leaving my bed.
I’m sorry, but I don’t think
I’ll make it in today…
Living Techniques
What I do
for a living
is breathe.
Wandering Antenna
In the background,
Sadé is crying everyone’s tears
and me, I just…
feel everyone’s feelings,
a wandering antenna
picking up the static
hidden behind waves –
not meant for shore;
Life is no beach.
Lapping in endless marathons
around frequencies unseen,
a maypole dance
of uncharged energy
for which I’m the conduit –
Like the crossed signals
of a broken remote;
sometimes,
I struggle to change the channels.
Calluses
Sorry if it seems
I’m just not into this –
but…
I’ve arrived at the end of my emotional
rope
and currently,
all I have to hold onto
are the calluses
from the last drop.
Dreamemory
I don’t remember my dreams
sometimes I wonder why.
Dare my subconscious hide from me?
But, no…
I’m comfortable with my own shadows, too.
the dreams I can’t recall
are the ones I miss missing.
