The Tale of a Girl on Her Back.

You …

You could think lying on your back would be easy. 

But…

I can’t even look you in the eyes 

While you climb on top and do as you please… 

…The Girl on Her Back


Does it even matter if I am in the room. I guess not, because you don’t even notice. Notice that I am not in the mood, notice that it doesn’t feel good, notice that I am only doing this to make you happy. I would be lying though if I told you I had never been here before. But, the confusion is just the same… Shouldn’t it be easy to just lie on your back?

The very tattoo on my back reminds me of moments like this. And, I chose these bright colors for such a dark topic because I still want to shine light on where I am despite the humans that have broken me. That this beautiful girl is able to stand proud despite the darkness she carries within her.

Like the true lotus flower she is.

“It is a symbol of purity.”

  1. My blessed granddaughter. The words are hard to read and they were probably more difficult to release. I’m really comforted by the fact that you have found somewhere to release them and you open your ears and your heart to others who haven’t found their paths to releasing the inner trauma.

      Nana, thank you for always believing in me and telling me “You can do this!” You are of my wildest dreams, thank you for shining light and showing me a way to love that I had never seen before. It has made me feel safe and confident enough to be transparent and be my true self. I love having you to look up to, makes me feel like I can achieve anything in this world!
