Tarot🧞‍♀️

I always get told to let it go. Let it be. Just breathe. You’ll be set free. But, I’m tired. Haven’t I paid karma in full? Haven’t I learned my lessons like school? Why is it never the right timing for me? Visions of you leaving turn into reality as it unfolds right in front of me. You could say it’s time but I feel your absence inch by inch. Used to say, “I’m an open book”. But now, I come with a lock and no key. Cause all these memories are flooding me and I can’t stay afloat. I feel like the tide is taking me. I can’t hide from how I feel inside so I just sleep.

I don’t know why I desperately desire someone to understand me and nurture me. I don’t let many people in but when I do, I give all of me. Isn’t that what you’re supposed to do? For people to experience you, the real you, aren’t you supposed to be true? What’s the point being open if I won’t tell you about the darkness that grew? What’s the point of loving with limits? What’s the point of going through this to remain as two?

Every time I think I’m being released, someone or something adds more time to my sentence. Sometimes, I go willingly, no dragging my feet. My weaken heart puts me there and accepts defeat. Opening me up is not as easy as it seems. It takes all my strength. So when people leave, they take pieces of me. I feel it so deeply. That’s an emptiness you can’t shake. Only one you can pray goes away as the day fades.

This My First Blog Officially That Is.

I don't know why I decided to get my dumb ass on Tumblr again. I mean does anyone even use Tumblr really like that?

Summer is about to commence and this is my last one before I officially step into the real world. I'm 17

I don't know what I want to do with my life even though everyone says that's okay I'd like to at least have an idea of what I want to do but it's still coming to me.

I get sad thinking about it honestly I spend days on days wandering around in my head and my life. I don't have a clue who the hell I really am . I have a job now so that's something. I official but unofficial have a viable sense of income as of now and I really like it.

So for the next 73 days I'd like to somewhat share my journey until I finish the supposed best year of my life

SENIOR YEAR.

lol idk why I made that in all caps.

I have a self image of myself I want to kind of achieve by the end of these 73 days that may or may not get accomplished

(I'm trying to get better at going through things ALL the way )

We'll see

it's 5/27/2022 we have until 8/8/2022 let's see if I can remember to do an entry .

It’s amazing how making art can be a way to express so many emotions, so many words that we sometimes can’t even articulate or put into words.

[melaniechristinawrites]

To the one walking out their healing, purpose, or creative journey along, you have to keep going.

You can no longer afford to wait on someone’s support, approval, or acknowledgment to evolve into this next version of you. Your mental health can’t afford it. Your purpose can’t afford it. Your consistency can’t afford it. No more trying to explain or get people to understand. It’s paralyzing you, & it’s not fair to all the work you’re putting in.

They’re simply going to have to watch.

It’s tough because needing support and validation doesn't mean you're weak.

It means you're human.

But, also know that you can evolve, and some people will still be determined to misunderstand you. Some are in your corner rooting you on (hang on to those people). But, others will always hang on to the version of you that they're familiar with. That has nothing to do with you. Some just simply don’t have the capacity right now to give what you need & survive themselves. So, you have to keep moving forward.

This isn't about cutting people off or proving your haters wrong. It’s not personal. This is simply about obedience to God and keeping the promise to yourself by doing exactly what you're called to do & evolving into the beautiful, healed, purpose-filled person you already are & continue to become.

So, grieve the loneliness if you need to. Regroup & get support where you can. Then, get back up & KEEP GOING 🤎

He was sleeping peacefully but I wanted him.

I laid on my stomach and grabbed his dick.

Sucking the head, I couldn’t wait to feel him grow.

It began to get thicker and longer, filling my mouth.

Slurping noises filled the room and a slight moan.

I felt his fingers run through my hair.

“Damn baby” he whispered in between moans.

“Stroke him for me” I said before getting my toys.

I returned to see him stroking his dick with a smile.

He knew what time it was.

You see I was all about pleasing him, but that also meant making my pussy squirt as he entered my throat.

I get nasty when my wand is pressed against me.

Feeling the vibrations on my clit, I lose myself.

Wanting him to take control and fuck my throat.

Him showing no mercy on me, making my tears flow.

Stroking his dick while licking his balls, he loved that.

I circled my tongue around the tip while positioning my toy.

That’s all y’all get for now

Protect Your Mental Health

Mental Health means, “a person’s condition with regard to their psychological and emotional well-being” Why in our communities (Black. Brown, and Indigenous) space is not held for us when it comes down to our mental health? Could it be because those spaces weren’t made for us while we were growing up and now, therefore, grapple with taking charge of it, meaning not allowing people to interrupt, disregard, disrespect, abuse, use and manipulate us? Why are we perpetrated to be strong and out of this world beings? This is coded language that we must recognize for what it is, this was said to our ancestors when they were enslaved, strong strapping animals (not even recognized as human beings) while white people were called fair, not meant for heavy labor, and must be protected at all times. This dangerous and demonic narrative is still glaringly alive today and it must be destroyed, torn down and burned, to never grow again.

We all witnessed how Tennis Sensation Naomi Osako withdrew from the French Open citing Mental Health reasons. Now if anyone has been paying attention to this young lady, you can tell that she struggles with these preposterous ineffective interviewing that they subject athletes to. In one interview that I saw, Naomi said, “I’m just really sad right now” it wasn’t because of the game, she was having a mental health crisis, and let me tell you I was so broken for her at that moment because it was so clear that they heard her but didn’t care. After all, in their demonic minds, they were saying, “What does she have to be sad about?” For many of us, these are the same questions posed by our family and friends. And here is the crux of the situation, most of us suffer from anxiety, depression, and mental illness, if you grew up in a religious family you were told to just pray it away. Don’t get me wrong prayer is phenomenal and it does work but God also prompts us to seek out therapists. Now He created them so why do we feel shame for even considering it and Lord knows the church makes it worse, (for many people the church is where their trauma stems from) but this is a topic for another day, coming real soon. So let me tell you why? It is because our families were never encouraged to do so for themselves, so how can they possibly encourage us to do it.

I have learned a lot of lessons during the pandemic and being in quarantine. One of my biggest lessons is taking care of my mental health at all costs and by any means necessary. I currently don’t have a therapist but I am looking for one because I am not ashamed to say I want one. When I look back on my adolescence, teen-aged years, and adulthood, I can see faces of people who I grew up with that I now recognize as battling with their mental health. Comments that the elders would make about people being disrespectful, hardheaded, they are going to die young, they are slow, and the remarks went on and on. I know these words were spoken because they heard the very same things when they were growing up, so it’s learned behavior, a vicious cycle, generational curses, and trauma. Healing wasn’t spoken to them, so how could they speak healing to us. So this is why each of us must get help, you can start here; https://therapyforblackgirls.com/ Do command the space for our peace of mind, protect our mental health, allow ourselves to heal, say no, show up as our authentic self, allow ourselves to be planted, pruned, watered, and bloom. Don’t do it for anybody else, “DO IT FOR YOURSELF” - BECAUSE FOR MANY OF US IT IS A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH.

Until My Next Post…We Are To Be Each Other’s Keeper!

A Voyagers' Map to Love❤️

In those moments when I look to you as if you've done this before...

That's when it hits me all over again like a 10lb brick

You know just as much as I do...NOTHING

Nothing about this love is familiar to either of us

We are VOYAGERS in uncharted territory

And while it's not always smooth on the path to get there

It makes for a hell of a story

Voyagers

YOUNG and RESTLESS

On a quest for one's most inner desires

LOVE

Two head strong women

One too proud to let love fully in

The other in love yet too scared to tell her

A dilemma like no other, yet exactly the same as all the others

But this love is STRONG

Like the winds on the most difficult sail

It is powerful, like the God NO ONE CAN SEE

It breaks cycles

So powerful and so strong I've never known a love so true to be

And THIS LOVE IS MINE!

All I've asked for in my hand

How could this finally be

Perhaps because I HAD FINALLY MADE AMENDS

With myself; with the people who brought Hell to earth

But she wipes it CLEAN

Like rain crashing down on my body

A drip so sweet I don't ever want it to end

So I write the STORY

Of a voyager so deep in

Her quest is surely almost done, her feet can almost touch the sand

In all her glory, her love shines bright

LOVE IN HER HEART like sand in between your toes

She glows

This voyagers' heart has found it's map

AND AS THE STORY GOES we might not ever see the bliss of this

But SURELY

ONLY GOD KNOWS♡

To my dearest Love

Realization

When I feel anxious, I overthink any and everything. I try to find a deeper meaning in the simplest of things. I assume the worst as a defense mechanism. I begin preparations for a storm I thought of. Not a storm I know for sure is coming. Because I don’t want to be blindsided. Because I think it will hurt a lot less. Which isn’t true. I’m scared of taking the risk. I’m scaring of being the only one falling. I’m scared of being abandoned. I’m scared of heartbreak. I’m scared of rejection. I drive myself insane by allowing my thoughts to control me so much.

My Toxic Sister

Why do you repeatedly call me ugly?

Why do you say I’m darker than you constantly?

Like my complexion is something to be ashamed of. I am not you nor do I want to be you.

Why aren’t you happy for me when I succeed?

You never spent time with me as children. You abused me as a child. Both physically and emotionally.

The envy and jealousy you emit is suffocating.

It brought me down to a level of self-hate. So much so I tried to end my life.

Why can’t you be happy for me?

Why is it always a competition between us?

Shouldn’t you raise me up the way I do to you? You are the second oldest and I the youngest.

Aren’t you ashamed of your behavior towards me?

Now you don’t speak to me as though I did something wrong?

You told me your dreams. I was excited for you. Encouraged you...

I told you my concerns. You got upset with the truth.

You want to be a great performer. But you don’t practice your craft.

How do you expect to be your best when you don’t put in the time or effort.

Yes there is natural talent, but in order for you to be the best you have to work harder than everyone around you.

Now I got something for myself that I am striving for and your jealousy almost broke me.

But I know now, I cannot trust you with my dreams or aspirations.

I hope one day you will see your faults. But as for now I will be happy for myself.

I will succeed without you. Because I never needed you I wanted you.
