Ballad of a Queen

Rise... rise from the ashes my dear
For every time life breaks you down into pieces
Let every piece sing the song of your victory

There comes a time
When you want to hide
Not face the world
And let the others rot

Cry your heart out my dear
Let your walls curb down
And your stomach spill out every hurt it felt
Lying writhing on the bathroom floor
You scream out in agony
Your soul on fire and a gut wrenching pain
Hollowness in your heart
And frenzy in brain

But after you are done
Pull yourself together dear
Wipe your tears
For you are the queen and you got this together
Wear your crown and your high heels
Walk out with your head held high
Because you are stronger than that

No matter what broke you
No matter who broke you
Let your life be a story of survivor
Wear your scars with pride
For they sing the tales of your battles
And you won every single time

When do you ask for consent

 I was standing at a stop Waiting for my bus to arrive A fine young gentleman approached and asked for my number  I hesitate before I decline He says, '”but, I am a nice guy” As he takes a step closer towering over my frame with all his height. I flinch, afraid, I peer around for help. None are at this stop ‘Cept the bus that comes on. I hold my bag close and run away. It has been a hectic week  I meet up with a friend to catch up We have a drink or two in us As we move to cook a joined meal His hands move to the rhythm of beats Onto the low of my back He pulls me closer  I brake with both my palms “ But I am a nice guy, you should give me a chance” He says, as he continues to pull me in closer  I push hard and lock myself in the room. Was coming back from a celebration the other night with a friend We must have had some drinks As one hand on wheel, his other found mine I push away, I flinch  “But I am a nice guy”  He says, as his hand continues to gra...

Paradise

          **All the characters and events in this story are completely fictional** The bizarre set of events that started happening as soon as I landed in the magic island of Hawaii still sends my brain reeling into a perplexed contusion. I planned a trip to surf the beaches of Hawaii, on island of Oahu, for my birthday. The trip started with my friends riling me up to fetch that fairy tale romance I dream of. Don't tell them that I stuffed my luggage with 3 books, and I plan to do some intense reading.   I was waiting by baggage carousel after my flight landed to collect my suitcase. I see this tall gentleman (or should I call him an adult boy since he is wearing a gray sweatshirt, blue jeans, and white sneakers), picking up a red 24" suitcase that weirdly resembled mine. His suitcase had a captain marvel sticker on it just like my suitcase. IT WAS MY SUITCASE! I ran around the perimeter of carousel as this gentleman tries to casually walk away with m...

Anyone

 To the guy who said he would be with anyone but with me, I have carried the weight of those words in my heart, The pain of my spirit crushed, for very long, I trusted the whimsy parts of my being in your hands, And then got pushed into the depths of Tartarus. My soul was broken and my heart was crushed. I thank you today, For without you, I wouldn't have broken apart into the smallest of bits. For without it, atoms of my soul wouldn't have come together, This time, to create a perfect being of myself. This time, I put myself together the right way. I thank you today for the love you showered when we were together, And for the hell my soul has endured, Because today, I am stronger than ever I have been.  I release you from my energy today. It's been a long time coming, I put you to rest.
