Selfie-ish
Whenever I ask someone to take a picture of meThey never get the composition rightThey donāt adjust the settings to best suit my features under the given lightingThey donāt capture my full lengthThey donāt capture my smileThe picture is blurryAnd my feet are cut offMy face is distortedAnd my eyes are closed They click the button whenI sneezeI blinkI fallBut not when my eyes are openWhen my smileā¦

How to Blog
This is a post about how to blog, how to start a blog, how to run a blog, how to be a blogger. Some of us have the desire to start blogging, but just donāt know where to start or how to stay consistent.
This is NOT where I come in. š
Please be aware, this post is strictly for entertainment purposes. And probably just my own entertainment at that, since I do not blog consistently norā¦

Letting Go
Why should I let go?Itās not that I want toItās that the feelings are strongerThan Iād care to admitAnd itās easier to let them float away with the windThan to let them soak in the waters that were created by the tears that Iāve cried while waiting for a solid signThe earth that I stand on quivers and shakes with every thoughtAnd every sighThe fireā¦itBurns.Itās not that I want to let goBut thatā¦

Wildfire
No one could tell that there was any friction in herThat she would ignite the first spark all on her ownThat she would run with itSpreading a fire in all directionsNo one could blame her eitherShe was full of energy that could no longer be containedShe would no longer be swept awayBut instead, be the one to fan the flames

Eye of Ra
How many times must I fly around the sun
In this dance of night and day
Watching you rise and fall alone
Before you remember where we both belong?

Almost
Disappointment lurks around the corner
And it makes me sad
Is it my own impatience
That drives me mad
I wait and wait
And then give in
Just for a taste
But we never begin
We never end
Because we never were
Just floating along
Never at the door
Never ringing the bell
Never holding my hand
Just almost
Almost
Almost
Again
And again

My River and Me
My River andĀ Me
Iām looking right at you
Youāre looking at me
The tension is high
As I draw you in
Youāre acting so cool
Like you donāt need to swim
But my river is refreshing
And you desperately want a dip
The water is calm
For now
While youāre admiring my allure
From over there I invite you to at least dip your toes
You stay where you are
So nobody knows
Meanwhile thereās a fire with my name onā¦

A puzzle completed
I started whole
Complete
One big, unaltered piece
Never lost
Always in place
Until cuts were made
Sharp and deep
Until there were many pieces
And then many more
And more
Until it was too much to keep up with
And I dropped pieces everywhere Iād go
Sometimes I would miss them
Sometimes Iād forget about them
Sometimes Iād feel incomplete
Sometimes Iād try to fill the spaces withā¦

Just my imagination
Itās just my imagination
When I open my eyes and see you next to me
Right?Ā
When you text me
When you call me
When you say my name as if youāre falling
Thereās nothing really there
Right?Ā
Itās just my imagination
When you rush to my side when Iām feeling down
Right?
When you protect me
When you uplift me
When you say youāll always be there for me
Thereās nothing reallyā¦

Demystifying Tarot cards
Confession: I own a few decks of tarot cards. Clarification: I donāt use them for fortune-telling.
Everyone has intuition and everyone uses it. Some people are just a lot more aware of their intuition than others. There are numerous different tools to help you tune into your intuition. The Tarot is one of those tools.
When I mention to people that I like doing tarot readings for myself and for myā¦

There's something magical about black and white, or grayscale photos. Selfies like this just look cooler! Anyway, just here to ask: Have you told your own self "I love you" today? If you haven't, go ahead and do that now! I've been doing that more lately and...I really feel it! šš . . . . #selflove #selfcare #selfie #selfacceptance #iloveme #iloveyou #blackandwhite #grayscale #filters #natural #naturalbeauty #curlyhair #latina #dominicana #virgowoman #infj #embraceyourself #cateyes https://www.instagram.com/p/CMDAMZKBLH1/?igshid=5b4xao08cwbp
