They’re going to belittle you and question your thoughts Keep empowering yourself Keep thinking They’re going to tell you how you should feel Keep feeling every little thing that ripples through your veins They’re going to tell you don’t worry about it now you have your whole life ahead of you Get it done They’reContinue reading “Empowerment for the gas lit”

Let’s Just Be
The push and pull centered me I’ve accepted me I’ve loved me Even in uncertainty My arms are open to the things meant for me My eyes are closed to keep my heart open I will be Ok -Saschia
Us and Our Art Space
You’re the words I want to hear and the voice I seek in the darkness. You’re the first person I think to call when I have good news And the one I run to with my bad thoughts I can’t help it Separate lives, shared thoughts Working together to create something With nothing but theContinue reading “Us and Our Art Space”
