Anxious people are resorceful, they need to know how to keep the sea of panic at bay so they do not drown. - Nikita Gill

Womanhood
is rich with unlearning.
How to unlearn the way
you hate your body

EVOLUTION

Our whole universe is constantly evolving.
Entire stars disappear and new ones take their place.
From the bones of one planet, another is born.
Whole constellations disappear
in the blink of an eye leaving
just stardust in their wake.
What makes you believe
that your soul’s journey,
your soul’s evolution will
be any less painless?

There is nothing convenient
about freedom.
It is born from battle cries
and war, and blood,
and death
and people living for it
and dying for it
without ever getting it.

Never let anyone
tell you that it was easy
for you to have the fire,
the storms, the oceans
of strength
to speak your mind
that you have today.
