Some where in between the “I love you“‘s and the arguments we have managed to seek
each other’s face…
As if we’ve known each other some where different,
In between time and space.

Art Forbids The Limits of Humanity.
Humanity Terminates The Flaws of Perfection.
Perfection Lurks In The Shadows of Art.
Deviate For The Sake of Art, For The Beauty of Humanity, For The Protest of Perfection.

We turn over these new leaves in hopes to become like the trees who defy time
and exist for eternities,
Attempting to resist the humanity of boundaries in the act of safety…
Everyone has been hurt by somebody.
Let’s not be the scars of our past, but the beauty of a future blessed by nature as
we go through tribulations and proceed…
To turn over these new leaves in hopes to become like the trees who defy time
and exist for eternities.
Namaste.

“Try being a lady, oh you mean…Use me as a trophy so you can parade me? Use my vagina to only birth babies? Be your damsel in distress so a brother can save me? Hmmmm how about not, because if my tongue was a trigger you would’ve been done got shot. Get real. I’m gonna stay inappropriate ‘til I fucking rot”.

“You say ‘the world just don’t understand’, but I aint the world my love. I’m your woman and I know how deep it really goes. Trying to tread on a dream when the water feels low.”
