Miraquill
she believed in her daydreams
but daydreams fade with the sunlight
she thought she found magic
but the trick was on her
she writes to be free
but the paper has turned yellow

I take the hours of insomnia and put it to good use. I write.
I write in the hours after midnight. I write in the hours before dawn. I write because I need to. I write because I have to. I write because that's what I do. I write to express. I write to erase. I write to forgive. I write to forget. I write to heal.
I am jodiwriters.

Back in the neighborhood
Wearing a frown
Her presence is everywhere
Every store, every corner, every street I see her
Waiting in the bakery for her coffee and bagel
Waiting for the green light so she can cross
Waiting in line to buy her lottery tickets
Waiting for the afternoon to pass
Waiting for night to rest her body
Waiting for sleep to escape her life
Waiting. Always waiting for something.
Back in the neighborhood that I detest
My frown could turn to tears
But I hold my breath and stay silent
And I'm waiting for the day when this frown becomes a genuine smile
And I'm waiting for my lungs to breathe easier
And I'm waiting for the minute, for a hour, for a day when her very being can rest in peace in my heart
Waiting. Always waiting for something
As she did

In the sky
Floating high
Lingering amongst all your lies
Is my hope that has finally died

#heartacheJust let it go
Let it soar to the winds and let the universe make things as they should be
Just let it go
Write down the memories and set it on fire
Let the ashes burn all your pain
Just let it go
Decorate your heart with all the love that makes a beautiful you
Just let it go
Recapture the innocence and make wishes to come true
Just let it go
You are good

#heartacheLower your voice
Unclench your fists
Blink the anger out of your eyes
Breathe slowly
Sit and rest
Don't place me in the path of her
Your pain is not from me
I am not her
and she will never be me

#writingmypainawayAcceptance
I'm just me doing everything I can with this life I have chosen to live. I'm just me giving whatever I can to the people I cherish. I'm just me. Simple as that. I accept myself with the decisions I've made. I accept myself with my good, bad and ugly sides. I accept myself with my past. I accept myself as I am today. I love me exactly as I am. I would love if you could too.

#heartacheI am not enough to stop your tears
I am not enough for your tears to dry
I am not enough to protect your heart
I am not enough for your heart to heal
My hugs are just arms around you
I am just a faceless shadow that cries invisible tears for a time when I was enough

#heartacheNobody wants to know when you have problems. Nobody wants to see you sad. Nobody wants to know that you haven't taken a shower because you're confused. Confused about what shampoo to use or what soap is the right one. Nobody wants to know the thought of washing your hair gives you anxiety because it takes so much effort and your body is drained from trying to put your thoughts together. Nobody wants to know about the dreams that are so frightening that you wake up shaking. Nobody wants to know about the pain in your body that is so intense you can't walk like a normal person. Nobody wants to know how you contemplate what would be the best way to end the suffering which they don't want to acknowledge is real. Nobody wants to know that their actions and harsh thinking makes us feel unimportant and unworthy.
Nobody wants to know anything but we feel everything.
