YOU ARE THE LIGHT

Some days are worse
It’s hard to breathe 
Even harder to eat
Where have I gone wrong?
Why can’t I just be happy?
Why do they not understand?

Sometimes it’s harder to stop the tears
I cry so hard my head aches 
I can’t even sleep
It’s like the world is deaf
No one can hear me scream

Sometimes it’s harder to stay strong 
Even harder to think of a reason why I should 
Harder to ward off the dark thoughts 
Why is everyone fine and I’m not?
What’s wrong with me?

I’d tell you what...
You aren’t messed up
You’re different 
You’re beautiful 
You care way too much and sometimes that hurts
But the world needs you
The world needs the little things you contribute 
We need your smile even when it’s hard
We need your laughter
And it may be hard but getting up in the morning and realizing that you won another battle against sadness, negativity and depression even when the world doesn’t see it is more than enough.
You’re strong even when they don’t think so, no one understands the battle that you fight cause most times they’re engulfed in their own battles too.

You know when you flip out sometimes cause you’re frustrated? Yeah, everyone has those days too.
You’d realize sometimes you don’t even mean those words. Most times they don’t too.
In a world filled with darkness and sadness...
You’re the light. Remember that ❤️

SAIL!

I'm sitting on the floor in my bathroom, this is the first time I've been inspired to write in months and like you'd guess, I'm inspired by blinding pain. All my life, since I can fucking remember, I've wondered why some certain people treat me a certain type of way. For years, I couldn't get answers so I tried to fix something I didn't have a clue about. At 20, I'm here wondering if all the soul searching, quest for answers, zeal to breakthrough and all I had to go through were necessary. I'm surrounded by lies! Lies everywhere! I've beat myself up for so many years for what wasn't my fault and while I'm relieved I wasn't at fault, I'm utterly bewildered. After all these years, the people I've fought to protect have been lying to me. I don't know how to feel and I know this doesn't make any sense but I'm this close to losing it. This close.

THOUGHT SOMEONE MIGHT NEED THIS 💚💚

You will never have anything figured out and it might sound harsh but thats how bitter truth is. Don't beat yourself up when things don't go as planned cause that's when things get interesting--- being able to survive it all but really what do we have to lose? We'd all die anyway. You'd not know until you stare death in the face that now is all you have. Maybe when you understand that life is a journey and not a race... but answer honestly, what do you really want? Thinking out loud... I really don't know who needs to hear this but, Live, love, laugh .

LETS TALK ABOUT SEX

In Nigeria and even all around Africa, the topic, SEX  is more or less ignored and this has a terrible effect on the young ones as they grow up because talking about sex with your kids, helps them understand more about sex and from a reliable source.  You’d agree with me that there’s a lot of lies about sex and leaving the younger ones to learn the hard way is not the best way. So, my next posts would treat the topic of sex and everything associated with it from the youngster’s point of view. We’d be talking about sexual assaults, rape, molestation and everything sex. First of all, is there really a right time to start talking to your kids about sex? If yes, when is the right time? Subscribe, like, drop a comment, share and stay tuned and by the way something juicy is coming your way. Have a lovely week ahead people.
