make
no mistake:

there will
be dragons.

what they don’t
know is that

you will always
be ready with

coal wedged
between your lips

& a match poised
between your fingers.

here is the vital difference
between you:

they burn to kill,
but you burn to survive.

- may they never underestimate you again

just because
they don’t
hit you
doesn’t mean it
isn’t
abuse.

wouldn’t you
think it
a crime
to look up
at
the night sky
& tell
the stars
that they have
no sparkle?

guess what?
you shine
brighter
than all the
starlight
there has
ever been or ever
will be.

- emotional abuse is still abuse.

be a
mermaid.

be a mermaid
who doesn’t settle
for making a
small splash.

be a
mermaid
who doesn’t
stop until she makes
tidal waves.

be a
mermaid
who knows to
stop before
she devastates
the world with her
tsunamis.

- don’t allow the world to take your kindness.

you
are not
obligated
to have
children
just because
your body
has that
capability.

you
are so
so
so
much more
than the
possibility
of
children.

you give
birth
to oceans
every
single
day.

- your friendly neighborhood man-hater & child-eater.

trees
have words
the wind
cannot carry,
so we must
write
on them
their stories
until there are
none left
for them
to tell.

- write the story.

write the story.

push
your hands
into the dirtiest
parts of yourself.

take the
rot & decay
& turn it into
nourishment & life.

water it
& sing to it
& show it
sunlight.

grow a beautiful garden
from your aching
& teach yourself
how to thrive from it.

write your story.

they say
they only want
flowers
to grow from
my mouth,

so i will
look them
dead
in the
eye

as i
shove
soft petals past
my lips,

chew
with
my jaw
completely
unhinged,

& spit
them
down
at
their feet.

- i will never be your expectations of me.

OMG OMG OMG OMG
THIS IS WHERE IT’S FROM

i’m not scared
of the monsters

hidden underneath
my bed.

i’m much more scared
of the boys

with messy brown hair,
sleepy eyes,

& mouths
that only know

how to form
half-truths.
