This buds for you

I know you pretend to not pay too much attention to this blog thing.

That's cool.

I'm glad you're taking an interest in what I do in here, even if you won't admit it. It may interest you to know, I'm interested in your thoughts too.

About my new poem,

It was about me, only me. It was a character sketch of my own self, well a part of myself, the part of me that is as hard as nails, the adamantine will of mine, my resistance, a blessing and a curse. A virtue and a sin.
One trait, one personality quirk that has existed from the first moment of me through to this one. My resistance, stubbourness at once sustains me, and seeks to pull me down.

You know, walking the line...

It was about embracing myself as I am, as I was, and as I will be.

I know you have a hard time understanding that, you think I'd be better off forgetting who I used to be. Thing is, I love who I used to be. I love the potential I held, the spirit I nurtured, the mind I carried.

I love who I am, and I am confident I will love who ever it is I am becoming.

Sweet heart, all my poems are revealing. So are my sketches. So are my words. I am not unique in this aspect. Everything we create, think, or do hangs out there in the world for people to see and interpret however it is they are going to.

That is life my love. LIFE.

We are not meant to hide in the dark. We are meant to shine and share.

The thing about it babe, is each of us has to at some point let our shit stand in the world. People judge, that's what we do, judge, label, catagorize, compare.
Its also the very thing thing we fear the most from others. We collectively spend so much time avoiding judgement, its amazing anything gets done.
