Carbon Stealer

If you have been brutally broken, but still have the courage to be gentle to others then you deserve a love deeper than the ocean itself.

My mind is so impatient, so quick, in some ways so desperate.

Perhaps we should love ourselves so fiercely, that when others see us they know exactly how it should be done.

Don’t ask yourself what the world needs, ask yourself what makes you come alive. And then go and do that. Because what the world needs is people who are alive.

My hollowed eyeballs Sink deeper into my bones Looking inward at my own flesh I see the little god in me Budding outward, and I Breathe out to feed its unformed petals The stem lengthen and strengthen Through these black lashes jutting out in arches Like golden half-moon structures Leading to the starry city A mini divinity sitting on sunflowers. Breathing in the fumes of my tea I find my center in the corner of a wall.

Please don’t expect me to always be good and kind and loving. There are times when I will be cold and thoughtless and hard to understand.
