choosing yourself
-
A poem about choosing peace over proving yourself to someone who kept hurting you.
-
A poem about letting go of the need to defend yourself to people committed to misunderstanding you.
-
A poem about the moment explaining stops and survival becomes the only answer.
-
She spent too long putting herself on trial for someone else’s silence before realizing the crime was never being too much.
-
She was willing to stay through fear and mess, but love could not survive being the only person still reaching.
-

-
They returned after the door had already changed meaning and loneliness was no longer enough reason to let them back in.
-
The work may not come with a paycheck, but every poem and page is building something real one sentence at a time.
