Talk to someone
I don’t mean to boast but I love this poem and I think I wrote it as a message to myself.
I’m currently in the process of getting therapy (ie I have opened and closed the enquiry form about 50 times but the last time I left it open so that’s one step closer)
I’ve lost friends and family over the past few years and I have of course so many people I can talk to but I actually just sometimes need to talk to someone who isn’t in my life so I will be taking my own advice and go and TALK TO SOMEONE

Tell me who you’re decent to
A piece I wrote off the back of the 2024 riots, particularly in response to the social media outrage, aggression and blatant racism that was so openly displayed.

Eggshells A.H.L
WIP poem Eggshells 🥚
Exploring subtle toxicity in relationships and the feeling of outgrowing those in your immediate circle.
Eggshells
When I spoke
Fear of judgement
Worry I’ll tip our boat
Silence
Is often worst than lies
But around you
Better than honesty
Eggshells
In your presence
I was so afraid
to lose you
To not have your full attention
Obsessed with your obsession
Eggshells
When I shared good news
Sugarcoating my achievements
Concerned it would hurt you
Eggshells
Even through screens
And in silence
Eggshells
around you
