"Free Write: Self Discovery"
I am a queen and my body is my kingdom. Together, we embrace and share a loving relationship with the universe, full of destruction and flaws. We accept demons and angels alike. NO RESTRICTIONS. I am the light and i come from darkness. I am also the darkness turned to light. I am positive and negative, a combination of it all. I am not light without darkness, my stars are prettier at night. There is a freedom in the mist of darkness but a clarity to the light that brings about all colors. United we are the bridge between the dark and the light, spiritual and material, ying and yang. The grey area where we breed understanding and respect. One not without the other, if not entangled because to fail without each other, would be death. But why fear death, when it’s just another beginning, to remember, to take advantage of and do it right this time around. It always comes full circle after all, if we live like we knew that, I don’t think we would hold on to everything so tight. It goes around in a circle so fast, that it seems slow but yet their is never enough time. So fast that it happens multiple times over and over again in sevreal different ways. Now it’s many circles inside of more circles, each more interesting than the other but all the more puzzling.
PART 2
Who am I, if not myself? Why be so fearful of being another, when that’s all I crave? I ve never felt admiration like this before, so wide and colorful. Peaceful and charming. My relief a reminder of the hard work. Who am I without myself to love? A vessel without its host, always searching for something to plug up the hole. Eventually, we use our fingers, anything to make the tapping stop. Finding ourselves still looking and expecting the consistency of that sound. Desperate enough to wait for the reassurance of a leaky faucet. The one we gave up on fixing because we refused to follow the instructions. They made no sense and I m almost certain I don’t have all the parts. Who am i?
