Family Au Naturale

Happy belated 4th of July! My day was pretty chill. Went to my parent's house and had dinner, and got to see and spend time with family that I haven't seen in a very long time. Here are some pictures!




I've been proudly wearing my curls out! I will the leave those details for another post. Yes! My hair routine is worthy of its own post. That young lady is my cousin. We are often told that we look like twins. Do you see it? She embraced her natural locks as well. I think I gave her and her younger sister the bug lol. They both look great with their natural hair. I feel less of a slave when it comes to my hair, specially now, since I am taking better care of it.

Have a great week!

XO.

Vulnerable





Sometimes I write. I don't usually refer to them as poetry. (Come to think of it... I've only told one other person about my writing.) And that might be due to the fact that I don't speak about them at all, really. I am very overprotective when it comes to my art, writing--my creativity in general. But, I've been working on that. But, I write. I find inspiration in many places. Friends, love, music, movies, etc.



Fire Starter
You come into my life
and you strike a match
which lights a fire in my heart-
In my body, and then you
Walk away.
Silence.
Sadness.
Withdrawal.
Time goes on...
