Love and the Beach

 I know, I know; the last thing people are thinking of is the beach right now! However, I went on a trip to the beach last month with my


best friend, and call me superstitious, but I did a tarot reading before I went that made a HUGE deal out of it. This trip meant a lot to me, and like all revelations I have, I wrote. I figured my gift for the holidays to you is a few of the poems I wrote while there. ❤️ 

(PLEASE DO NOT REPOST WITHOUT CREDIT!!!

These Are MY poems and MY poetry so please do not claim it as your own.)

The Ocean

How could I

Look at something so vast

And not believe under its surface

Is something mystical, magical, and wonderful?


I am already risking missing Lady Aphrodite’s arrival 

Donned in white foam, 

By taking the time to write this poem


Things worth dying to know/ things worth dying to feel 

My fear of the ocean is like my fear of love

I am so drawn towards it, 

Yet still so pushed away.


I douse myself in the waves for the feel of such a magical thing

But escape, terrified, when the sharks arrive


How do you reconcile the adoration and fear of such things?

How do you be content turning away the only thing you have ever wanted, due to the paralyzing prospect of pain? 


But sometimes, When I peer out over the big blue reckless ocean, 

I think it maybe worth it to die a horrible death,

If only to know and relish it’s haunting embrace before I perish.


And last but not least...


The Tides

I want to kiss someone 

Like the ocean kisses the shore when the moon is new.


I know this post was short but I figured everyone is busy with the holiday things anyway. Thank you so much for reading, I wish you all a very happy holiday season!!

What To Do Inside on a Rainy Day

Image
Hello everyone! It has been raining all day today, but unlike some, I love the rain. It gives us a good atmosphere to stay inside, spend time with our families, or spend much needed time with ourselves. So here are some ideas for a fun day indoors. 1.  Learn something new-  I can’t speak for everyone but I know my bookshelf is full of untouched books chalk full of interesting and useful information. From ‘Herbal Remedies’ to “The History of Fashion,” there is a plethora of different things to read about. It never hurts to expand the knowledge of your mind. If you don’t have any books on hand, you may be able to check them out for free through an electronic library, or use the internet for your research. Whether book or phone, make sure your author is using reliable sources, and have fun learning.  Work on a project-   At the moment, I am toiling away with a little cross stitch, just begging to be finished and framed. Whether seamstress, artist, crotchet-er, or aspiri...

Update and Album Review; Star-Crossed by Kacey Musgraves

Image
      First of all, I have been gone for a few weeks. Instead of uploading once a month, I did have a spell there where I uploaded every week! I was proud of myself for doing this, but it wasn't hard! This blog is my safe space and I loved to update. However, as I mentioned in my last post, I lost a lot of motivation for it due to recent life events and disappointment in my own content.        As a quick update; I know you came here for the album review and not my baggage, so I apologize in advance, but I am in the process of rehoming my cat, as you can see via my Instagram, so I have been down about that. My last piece was a video of me reacting to the accompanying movie to this album and I was not allowed to repost any of the content from the movie for copyright purposes, so you would have no clue what moments I was reacting to when I posted it. That and the lighting was bad and I just felt too awkward in front of the camera at times. I decided to sc...

August Favorites ❤️

Image
Hey y'all! August is finally passed, and we are finally saying hello to September and fall! I cannot wait for autumn, but before we move forward, we must look back; in this case back to this month's August favorites! Song- "I am Not a Woman, I'm a God'- Halsey I love this song with all my being. It is the perfect 'bad-bleep-Addison-Rae' song for waking up in the morning and getting ready. I have always been a fan of Halsey, and their work, but for me "If I Can't Have Love, I Want Power" is hands down her best album. I would highly recommend giving it a listen if you haven't already. Some other favorites I have off this album are "Bells in Santa Fe" and "Lilith." This totally has confidence inducing, comfort album potential. 2.  Favorite activity - picnicking 💕  My favorite activity this month has been picnicking! I realized how beautiful my backyard is and just started to picnic there! It’s so peaceful to spend time aw...
