“i didn’t know it for most of my growing up… but my mama had dreams. dreams that weren’t of ring shapes and dress colors. she had dreams that were drenched in art and tasted like adventure… ones that felt like being kissed until her heart burst… ones that opened up her whole soul like a wildflower on fire. but i didn’t know it. i didn’t know it because she tucked them away in pretty memory boxes and hid them in tattered journals that she pushed aside for perfectly-scripted scrapbooks, and she buried all her burning desires under yes ma’ams and sunday dresses and sweet, supportive smiles, while any part of her that ever maybe might could’ve known that she mattered… by herself, for herself, and belonging. to. herself. suffocated quietly under the white noise of all those voices that had told her that all that really mattered was that she had been chosen… by him. and when i started to see that inside of her was a whole other woman that she ached to be… i knew i couldn’t go through my life aching for the me i’d never be, in that same way. so all i’ve ever wanted… is to know that i matter. by myself. for myself. and belonging to myself. chosen by no one, but me.”

“i never knew… because they didn’t want me to know… that it’s spiritual. touch is spiritual. passion is spiritual. soul to skin… it’s. all. spiritual. they never told me that it could be beautiful. that i’m beautiful. that you’re beautiful. and all of that heat and heart and wild intensity… it’s. beautiful. and little by little i’m trying to trade in shame and fear and just let myself feel all the things i’ve never let myself feel. maybe then it could be something… beautiful.”
