“What were you before you met me?"
"I think I was drowning"
"And what are you now?"
"Water.”— Ocean Vuong
Dear Motherland, love me and lead me.
fuchsia blossoms
scorched foliage and skin
bathed in endless sunlight
and dipped
in the sweet serenity of solitude.
Thank you, 2020, for the growth. And the scars. Because of you, I am stronger. We are stronger.
I want to live so densely. lush. and slow in the next few years, that a year becomes ten years, and my past becomes only a page in the book of my life.
Lightly child, lightly. Learn to do everything lightly.
The ocean sent me…
To be a witch
They cannot
Burn 🔥
We are sudden stars you and I exploding in our blue black skin ✨ — sonia sanchez
This year I’m back on land where roots are deep and the earth and skin run dark.
And this year I’m coming as all the things rooted in nature that force change and growth.
