I don't

I don't

Open at your words

Your touch

I don't

Listen to

Anyone anymore.

I am completely in my head.

I know we don't have time for this mess.

I do it anyway.

I don't

Pay attention.

I can't.

Don't, I tell myself.

Don't be that 

Cold-shouldered                icy stare              lifeless            fake smile

Girl.

Could you instead be

Love            light          laughter          connection?

I could.

But

I don't.

  • Beauty

    Beauty is

    Not hiding being a thick mask

    A thick layer that is not you.

    Beauty is

    Not wanting to be someone's doll

    Someone's plaything

    We are not here for decoration.

    Beauty is knowing what you want

  • A Study of Patience

    Don't force them; don't make fun of them.

    Take them places where they feel loved and safe,

    and watch them relax.

    Don't grab them or get frustrated with them; have patience.

    Wait for them to come to you.
