we’re stronger than you -
we’ve been
split open so many times
that you cannot
get upset with us
when we’re afraid to
let you move in and
bring your belongings and
settle into our hearts.
we’ve been
split open so many times
that our hearts are so
raw that one more
break, and i don't know
if we could survive it.
but every day,
we set our in hopes of
finding someone who will
mend us back together.
smiling is the
best way to
capture a room and
simultaneously
convince everyone
that you know
exactly what you’re
doing.
music is a
celebration of
what it means to be
free.
the ferocity when you
convince me that i´m
never good enough
for you burns on the
back of my tongue and
whirls me towards
someone who will
appreciate the fire that
burns bright in my belly.
they call it a
“personal style”
for a reason.
if your clothes don’t
make you feel confident and
like you could take over the
world, then they just
aren’t worth wearing.
my voice has gotten
so loud
that i’ve convinced
myself and
everyone around me
that i’m more
powerful and ferocious
than i really am.
