self love.
how do you repair yourself after the war without patience
how do you handle the nightmares of trauma without a glass of water next to you or a tight blanket to remind you that sometimes the trauma misses you too
how do you remind a war veteran that is living with you that it is just fireworks and not gunshots
they both shoot towards a target
they both explode what is left
leaving remains of the forgotten
how do you tell a survivor that what they fought for was in the name of love while you bandage their scars bloody guts and all
how do you relax the muscles you used to pull triggers on the attackers while you are facing the mirror
how do you sing gospel songs of praise when you felt no god by your side
how do you love a war veteran still in combat

apparently I was too popular and too publicly sad and my old blog was deleted, I thought it might be good for me but it turns out no one else wants to hear my poetry and I can’t go more than a week without venting to strangers so here we are.
If you followed me before please come back! and feel free to spread this around so I can find all the folks I used to be mutuals with
