The rest of my latest poem 'Life Lessons for Women' is available at lotps.com so click the link in my bio to read more 💛 xx

Poeople give me labels all of the time, the difference is now, there words hold only the meaning I allow them to.🕉💖✨

Writing is my most reliable method of self expression, so it's weird for me right now, because I don't really know what to say. The more that I connect with myself and the world around me, the less I find myself turning to words for comfort. I still want to write - it's the thing I love most in the world- but I'm still working out how to use a voice which doesn't come from a place of inner turmoil. This year I did what I set out to do- I found inner peace. It's a wonderful feeling, but it's also something I'm not used to, because feeling broken has been my comfort zone for so long. It's exciting to be in this head space now, but it's going to take some getting used to - I just need to find what this new voice has to say to the world. 💖🕉☀️
