The walls are like jelly, the air thick
The ground below morphing into a hot lava bath with tiny specs of earth remaining
This is my constant
Life on a string, gliding up and down
Faster…slower… unsure
This yo-yo life of mine
When moments of peace are filled with uncertainty.
Love notes discarded
Hope forever wavering
The things I desire most, I sabotage or gets sabotaged.
This is my constant
Born from the fire, born in exclusion, born in misunderstanding
Separation, isolation, exclusion
This is my constant
Love, determination, strength
Foresight…hindsight
Divine Protection, Divine Love, Divine Understanding
This is my constant

Art Saved Me
While for most, 2021 has been a time of uncertainty. I feel blessed, that I’ve been able to connect to my inner child within the last year. I reminded myself of who I am, and what makes me happy. I’ve always had a love and strong bond with music; however, I had long forgotten how to be silly and creative and create whatever my mind guides me to. I’ve been reconnecting to this side of my persona through art. Specifically, painting and drawing (digitally and traditionally). The more time I spent crafting my skills, the less stress and critical of myself I became, and then drawing became an outlet the provided peace in my life.

On Winning and Losing
Recently, the pleasant surprise of placement on the Vocal Bonus Leaderboard sent me down a rabbit hole. Now, rabbit holes are a pretty common place for me to spend time, but I don't always feel the call to write about them. To be honest, the thought of sharing some of them mortifies me.
