Darling, Don't You DareTo the girl who skips dinner,
Because her reflection hurts more than
Starving.
To the boy who wears sweatshirts
On hot summer days,
Because he doesn’t want his mother to cry over his
Scars.
To the boy who weeps uncontrollably
Until he falls asleep,
Because it’s the only way to escape into his
Dreams.
To the girl who spends her days in her bedroom,
Because the dark is more peaceful than her
Mind.
To the child who gets angry,
Because no one understands.
To the teens who self-harm,
To the ones in recovery,
To the ones that just can’t do it anymore…
Stay Strong.
For the girl who skips meals
And the boy who wears sweatshirts,
For the boy who cries,
The girl who hides,
And the ones who just can’t do it anymore.
Because darling,
You’ve come this far.
Don’t you dare give up on it, now.
AM It felt peculiar standing before him, now, almost as strangers–strangers with one horrible, tragic secret between them that abashes any sense of pure anonymity. The paths of time seem so impossible to cross until you stand on the other side. We knew each other, and yet did not. I suppose I'm being a bit overdramatic, but when you offer someone your love, only to have it all but reviled, it really does feel like the end of the world; especially when that love conspires against the norm.
I made the mistake of falling for my best friend. Of course in the complete cliché fashion, I didn't realize it for the longest time. When we were young, I all but depended on him. I didn't make friends easily, which I suppose I could chalk up to the fact that I was an only child, painfully shy, lonely, too fearful of rejection to risk anything in the slightest. No matter the reason though, I found myself drawn to him. He had a winsome personality. Not outgoing nece
The InvitationIt doesn’t interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart’s longing.
It doesn’t interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love, for your dream, for the adventure of being alive.
It doesn’t interest me what planets are squaring your moon. I want to know if you have touched the centre of your own sorrow, if you have been opened by life’s betrayals or have become shriveled and closed from fear of further pain.
I want to know if you can sit with pain, mine or your own, without moving to hide it, or fade it, or fix it.
I want to know if you can be with joy, mine or your own; if you can dance with wildness and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes without cautioning us to be careful, be realistic, remember the limitations of being human.
It doesn’t interest me if the story you are telling me is true. I want to know if yo

What I've Been Doing Recently
Hey, All! I know I've been pretty quiet here lately and I apologize for the neglect! After checking over dA's Terms of Service and FAQs I can't show you all what I'm doing because it's not art business related. So I'll tell you instead. XD I've launched a business where I train business professionals how to be more inclusive with their employees. I focus on the ADHD/Autism and LGBTQIA+ Communities. Yes, I can do more than those communities, but those ones are my areas of focus. I've had a few mentors who are helping me out immensely and I hope to share more news as time goes on. ^_^ I currently have a website and instagram for the business, message me for them privately if you want that info so that we're all playing nice with dA's rules. As far as things here go: I'm healed enough that I'm able to stay more on top of both the business launch and the writings I do. NaNoWriMo is coming up and I'm likely going to use that as a way to finish up several projects of mine that I
Quick Question
I was going to upload a Vampire: The Masquerade fanfiction of mine here (after all the edits X.X) then I realized that many people may not know much about the world it's set in, the types of clans/vampires and the dynamics there. Would a brief primer be helpful?
Processing
To those who know me, I am processing the events and the ... incredibly painful Supreme Court ruling regarding Roe v. Wade that they handed out yesterday. The thing is... I live in a state that I'm fine. I'm safe. My kids are safe. The laws protect women and people who bear children (or not) in this state. But not all states are like that. Each state now has the ability to decide whether or not they want to allow people control over their own bodies in terms of reproductive health. Over 1/5 of them have already shut down every clinic in their state. Within 24 hours... the rights and ability to choose for every single person in that state... is gone. To those that live in other countries, the United States is -massive-. It's not like getting on a train, or hopping on a bus for 30 minutes will take you someplace that it's safe to have whatever medical procedure that you want, or need, to have. On the East Coast, the states are smaller and closer together. For me, for example, it
Rough Times
Hey, All. I know I've been quiet here, despite the desire to share writings and updates with you all. Long story short--between things at my now-former place of employment (work safety violations, homophobia, transphobia, racism, being asked to commit a felony and told "It's fine if you don't say anything,", and more), challenges securing my top surgery placement and appointment (It's for June 7th this year. WOOHOO!!!), injuries (I hurt my left shoulder. Again.) and family issues which have cemented vast disservice done to men when it comes to body image, masculinity, attractiveness, mental health and depression (everyone's alive still. It's just...been rough.)--Things have been Challenging. I still drop by as often as I can. Yes, I do have some additions to works that I had to shelve for years (I am so sorry!!!). It is my goal to have something posted by the end of this month (May 2022). Please, All, take care of yourselves. You are loved. You are wanted. You are Enough. Wishing
