I’m Not Okay

I will make it trough

this is one challenge will set me up for a even bigger one

I will kick ass now

so I can break walls later

I was not given anything I cannot handle

I am meant for great things

I will succeed

I will see success

I will define my own success. 

I will conquer

I will overcome

I will do everything in my power to be the best me possible

I am surrounded with light

I myself am a light

I have accomplished many things

I have much more left

I have accomplished many things

I am destined for great things

I will not leave this earth unchanged

every change is for the good

every step is forward 

every step is in the right direction

nothing Is impossible

these things will come to pass

I am a light

I shine in darkness

there is no darkness in me

darkness cannot exist without light

if my light shines in and through me

then it can shine beyond me

I can light dark corners

I can light dark hearts

I can be a light in darkness

I am me

I am here

I am exactly where I need to be 

when I need to be there

I am me

I am here

I am right

I am moving in the right

I will make waves

I will make the ground move

I will succeed

 I am success

I am bright

I am me

I am here

I will overcome

I have overcome

I will be victorious

victory is for me

what is meant for me will be for me

I am me

I am where I need to be

when I need to be there

I am no mistake

I am here

I am me

I am me

I am me

I am me

and I exist with a purpose

“Modern Degenerate”

A Collaboration with Cass Meehan & Rose Slavin

Black

Native

Queer

Woman

Non-binary

Artist

Activist

Humans

Breathing

Living

Humans

Who’s voices will never be silenced

Who’s art will not be controlled

Who’s feelings will never be censored

Who’s creativity will roam and explore

Live and breathe

On its own

In this world

The modern degenerate

The outcast

The dream

I dream about being a mom more then anything else

I’ve dreamed about my family more then my career my house, my card, the dog.

I’ve dreamed of copious amounts of children

And excited that I was their mom

All just bursting with excitement when I hugs them kissed them

I want to be the one they run to when they cry

I want to tell them it’s okay to cry and understand how to make it better

I want to be the one they call mom

I want to be their provider

Their confidant

I want years down the road for them to call and apologize for yelling me when they were 13 because now they see that I’m right

I want to create children who know how to love

Who love themselves

Who can feel so empowered to change the world.

I want to be a mother to change

I want to be a mother to droppings of love

I want to kiss baby toes

I want to cry at evey graduation and wedding

I want to cheer them on at games

And edit papers

I want to be a mother so bad

But who am I now

And who will I be for them to be proud of

Who will I be before I can be in a position to be a mother

And who’s the father???

Who’s dad because he’s just as important in this scenario

But back to the point

I want to be a mom more then anything

Can’t tell me this ain’t love

Arise and Shine my loves

This day is yours

The universe is doing good things

You are taking steps towards a better you

And a better future

You are making a difference

Everyday

Just watch

We see you

✌🏾🖤

to all the black girls out here breaking generational curses & healing from all the traumas of your past…i see you and i’m proud of you. i love you.

“Never apologize for burning too brightly or collapsing into yourself every night. That is how galaxies are made.”

Only you can love you like you

Only you know what you need to hear

Sure it would be nice if someone else held your hand

If someone held you tight

If you didn’t have to cry from feeling alone

Because you weren’t

But you can be there for you

When you cry

Pick your head up

You can talk yourself up

Tell yourself to get up

You can do it

You can

By yourself

Love yourself like no one else

Love yourself more then a basic person could

Love yourself

Take care of yourself

Love yourself

Take care of yourself

Listen to yourself

Trust yourself

Listen to yourself

Trust yourself

Listen to yourself

Trust yourself

Listen when yourself says pick up this book

Pick up this paint brush

Pick up your head

Lift your voice

Focus

Be quiet

Stretch

Breathe

Breathe

Breathe

Breathe

It’s okay

Breathe

Breathe

Breathe

Youre here

Youre meant to be here

You have a purpose to fulfill

You will be rewarded

It’s okay

Just breathe

Just listen

This moment will pass

You can find peace in this moment

You can be at peace

This moment will pass

You will be at peace

Breathe

Breathe

Breathe

Listen yourself

Only you can love you like you

Only you know what you need

Breathe

I love you

I love you

I love you

I love you

I will care for you

I will make sure you’re okay

I will make sure nothing happens to you

I love you

Not too long ago I wrote a ramble about galaxies

I think In a different world I did major in astrophysics

In a different world my surface curiosity was a deep seeded passion

I searched the galaxies for answered to the future and found them

Im my life as Nova Rose Greene

I discovered 12 moons floating in our new galaxy

I found 1 planet

And I named it Waytoz

not for anything specific

But because it sounded good

I also discovered many many black holes

It’s my specialty

I’m the black space lady

I’m the one who made it possible for us to touch stars

I’m the one who paved the way for humans to exist beyond our current ways

I Allowed us to observe parts of the universe we knew nothing about

I pointed us in the right direction

And In another life

It makes the difference

In another life many many young women take to the stars

Many young women travel beyond their blocks, their states, their countries, their worlds

Many young people dream of infinite possibilities

And space gave them the opportunity to discover Beyond the infinite

Guess at this rate, many people are going to move out of the US
