Favorite Quote:
"Treat every person like a tiny universe lives inside them."


Temptation overwhelms in the collection of reward
Dictation for approval misconstrues love
Too seemingly often taken then ignored
Rendering falsely deaf ears deathly sick of

Learning is neither weakness nor failure
Self love and respect seem so dissipated
Ignorance depends on an upcoming savior
Where salvation is not needed but anticipated

True pleasure erupts from comfort and confidence
Connection and trust have been seized underrated
Defiantly, imaginary walls and masks mark the defense
Whereas simplicity would be marked unrelated

Demons and false gods cannot compare to bliss
From within without hell starts with a kiss

Realizing that no one else could be my happiness was the best day of my life. That being alone was okay and that not being okay was okay aswell.

You have to learn the hard way because no amount poetry of motivational speaking will teach you that you have to love yourself. You have to have so much love that there will be no more room for negativity in your life. Then you'll start attracting the right people into your life. People that respect and honour who you are. 

You are your own happiness. Others will make you happy but they are not responsible to keep you from your own negativity.
