I Said...TODAY

Today,

I’m putting my heart aside.

I’m putting away the feelings,

And I’m going to embrace me.

There have been loves to come and go in my lifetime,

But when will I finally embrace myself?

Today, I say.

Today, seems like a good day to start.

Alisha Wilkins ✒️🦋🖋️

I've been writing my whole life. Writing about realms to escape in, forbidden characters to fall in love with, and using writing as my muse and refuge. Recently, I've delved into the mind...mine and others. Happy Reading. Wishing you well.

    Way to go for one must love oneself before others.
