Bio

I will smile even when I cry

To let the world know that I refuse to wear my hardship as a burden

But rejoice in it.

It has given me enough backbone to push

Even when being pushed against.

-Braille

God fearing woman who embodies self love.

Safehaven
Dry heaving as the past drips from the present; Belief is crawling relentlessly through the cracks of my smile. Questions of if the pain is worth it is scraping my heart.

Just Keep Digging
Have you ever took a look in the mirror and didn’t recognize the reflection staring back at you? I have. Her eyes were filled with disgust and shame. The feeling of regret made the hairs on my arm reluctantly stand. I got goosebumps. How could she look at me with such a piercing stare? How could the one person whose love I crave, regurgitate at the sight of me?
