Beauty
What is beauty? I’ve been asking myself this a lot lately. Someone wrote “you are beautiful in every way” on my board. It made my day. I was later crushed to see someone Xd out the word beautiful. I thought to myself “who thinks I’m ugly” Later that week, a girl I don’t know but cross paths with often said “you always look so cute. Why are you so...
The past two weeks have been non-stop work and stress. All sorts of tests and projects and stuff. on top of my week of emotional trauma from bad ptsd reactions. on top of normal stress of where m going to live next year, work this summer, go on without the people i met this year. its just cray. its like i’m on a freak coaster where the speed is the speed of light. I’m so exhausted but...

Have you ever missed someone so much that it hurt? Have you ever felt that way about someone that you aren’t even sure exists? God has done some pretty freakin awesome things in my life and in heart this year. So much so that I want to shout it from the rooftops— but only have the people who really care hear because in order to understand my happiness you must first understand my...

I'm not looking for a fight.
I’m not looking for a fight, but I find it necessary to state and stand for what I believe. If you want to talk to me about what I believe, I’d love to hear from you- privately.
I believe in Jesus Christ. I believe in His beautiful Sacrifice. Because of this, I believe in love. I believe I am a sinner. I believe I’ve been set free. But I believe in equality. I believe The Cross...

"Bright Young Things"
As a 19 year old girl, the thought of Victoria Secret marketing to middle school girls as sex objects makes me sick. Yes, I recognize that there are a large number of young girls who already buy VS lingerie, and so maybe they feel they aren’t reaching all of their clientele. As a business student, I see how a line for the younger generation makes sense. What I do not understand is why the...

Self Image, boys, and waiting
I’m very secure in my self-image, well for a girl my age anyway. And I’m very certain God has the right someone for me at the right time. But sometimes I just want someone of the opposite sex to look at me and say “You are very attractive. Have a nice day.” And leave it at that. And then God’s like “oh silly child, don’t you know the plans I have for you?...

Calluses 2/15/13
I woke up
with calluses on my hands
but the calluses
on my heart
are nothing new
I pushed
and I poked
Tryin to pop
it away
I dont know
what I did
to get this
—callus on my finger
I havent sewn, baked, or
picked cotton
but it looks
like
that is
all I do
It somehow surprises me
how parallel
my heart and my finger are
Callused
With no way to heal
Callused
with no explanation
Calluses
That...

Two Pure Swans 2/13/13
Two pure swans
with parallel lives
unknowingly
looking for each other
But because of their
places, they will
never meet
such a sad story
of unfound love
So they head for
the deep and
find themselves
in a dark place
where parallels
can not exist
so they find each other
in the dark place
but now their
both so dark
they can not be
the lights of each others lives
what a sad story of a lonely...

Story Book Eyes 2/10/13
Let me tell you a story
about how I fell i love
with this girl that I saw
walkin down the street
One look and I saw
that she had a beautiful
secret to share
I looked her in the eyes and saw
where her secrets were kept
written in her beautiful head
And I said
Baby why don’t you
tell me where you’ve been
You’ve got these story book eyes
and I just want you to let me in

In My Thoughts 6/10/11
I dont want to be alone
in my thought tonight
There’s no one on the phone
helping me through why my life has been such a fight
Its a fight while living
but I’ll be honest
sometimes its the thinking
when I lie at rest
seeing the memories, vividly as if reliving
that gives my hardest test
That test that fight, no one knows exist
this no one understands why Im not alright
that test,...

To Shine Bright 11/9/2011
So I lie here Awake st night Thinking about all those stars Out there in the sky
I wonder if Out there in that big black sky If they feel as trapped as i
Because I lie here Awake at night Chained to the deathbed called life
Oh what it would be To be a heavenly star To not be chained From who you are Yet I lie here Awake at night Thinking about the stars Out there and I trapped here
I wonder...

Can we we say successful single Valentines day? I think yes ♥ #Jesusismyvalentine
Awk Valentine's Story of the Day:
walking back to the dorm, by myself, and two guys, looking lost, say”can i ask you a question?” Thinking they are asking directions, I said sure. Instead they ask me all the questions about what impresses me most about a guy, if appearance matters, etc. They introduce themselves, wished me a happy valentines day, and said that they looked forward to see me around campus....

It’s nights like this where I wish I could play an instrument I just want to sit here and play and write and just forget the world.
