Tonight, as ponder life, love and writing, I’ll be wondering where it all went wrong and be grateful that it’s all alright. #fridaynight #music #grateful #gratitude #mostlysober #ponder #writing #writer #poet #author #photographer #blogger #sleepinghooligan #inmylight #tanisjustice (at Corvallis, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2qQXfUHXgX/?igshid=v9m5bdwqci4l

You don’t have an addiction? Great! Good for you! Don’t smoke? Over eat? Drink? Do drugs? On your phone or the internet all the time? No? Good! Other people do though. Making fun of them or not supporting their journey is still a choice. Either choose to be kind or keep it to yourself. Just because you have an opinion, as shitty as it is, doesn’t mean you need to share it. • #compassion #kindness #sober #sobriety #addiction #recovery #dharmapunx #refugerecovery #dharmarecovery #dharma #counslor #recoverycounselor #latenightphonecalls #keepmovingforward #inmylight #tanisjustice https://www.instagram.com/p/B2oUfX2HzwC/?igshid=h24e6tduna7l

I’ve been craving cornbread so I made it with rice and red beans with peppers, onions and cilantro. I’m sure there’s more veggies in it but I’m hungry. #vegan #vegans #veganfood #veganrecipes #veganinspiration #cornbread #riceandbeans #dinner #vegandinner #inmylight #foodporn #veganfoodporn #tanisjustice (at Corvallis, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2nYXAfnLCZ/?igshid=1sr9appu8y3y4

Dark nights Alone and sober If any god is listening I’m sure my prayers fall of deaf ears Patiently watching the clock Killing time Time killing me I wait I waited longer than an man might but you left my heart feeling as hopeless as I felt in prison and that was the death of my desire If you’d talked to me Let me explain but how can you explain standing on the edge of nothingness? How can you help someone understand your fears and your heart breaking watching someone you love live through a hell you wouldn’t wish on your enemies? You were never interested though What you were interested in What you needed me for I couldn’t give you so you grew cold Pushed me away So I’ll stay away Lost in nothingness No hope for our hearts • #poem #poetry #poems #poetrycommunity #poetsofinstagram #poetryofinstagram #poetryporn #poetsdaily #poetryislove #author #writer #photographer #blogger #inmylight #tanisjustice (at Corvallis, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2nQ6qcHxRt/?igshid=borj9d45hoia

My date cancelled sometime in the middle of the night via text. It’s all good. If she has stuff to work through it’s probably for the best. I’m in no hurry. I’m still working through my own shit. • It’s funny how our past seems to affect how we view new people, or even people we already know for that matter. I am not who I was last year. To hold me to that standard is something you have to examine. • If you aren’t willing to move forward don’t fuck with people’s hearts. It’s that simple. It takes a specifically cruel person, be it with intention or not, to open a person’s heart and then skull fuck it. • We’ll talk about intention later... • #shamelessselefie #oldcatlady #hopelessromantic #openupandsayfuck #inmylight #sleepinghooligan #tanisjustice (at Corvallis, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2mO5ZmHoOb/?igshid=136b02gx63aqw

The rain, autumn here in Oregon, always brings on an emotional response in me. Maybe it’s allergies, maybe it’s the cold, or maybe it’s living is shades of grey.

I love the Oregon autumn weather. It’s a level of peace and zen all it’s own. #iloveoregon #oregoncoast #exploreoregon #hikeoregon #pacificnorthwest #inmylight #tanisjustice https://www.instagram.com/p/B2dTWj3Hsu6/?igshid=17qdl38rgoeio

SLEEPLESS MUSINGS • I fall asleep next to stacks of books on my bed A mixed pile of notebooks filled with words no one will ever read A deck of tarot cards littering the corner Some spilling on the floor And on my nightstand the photograph of a woman who wishes I were dead I might as well be dead To her anyway Somewhere out there someone will read this and think “He’s a sorry sack of shit” and someone else will read it and might think “Yeah, me too...” But if she ever reads these words she’ll undoubtedly mumble “Why won’t that fucker die” and I’d still love her all the same • Tanis Justice 9/15/2018 • #poet #poem #poems #poetry #poetrycommunity #poetryofinstagram #poetsofinstagram #poetryporn #poetryslam #author #writer #hopelessromantic #blogger #photographer #broken #happytho #nearlysober #inmylight #sleepinghooligan #tanisjustice (at Corvallis, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2br7PfHxvi/?igshid=lmp51xct9ryy
