When The Sun Won’t Shine,
And You Can’t Find Your Smile…
When The Hurt Won’t Subside,
And There Is No Where To Hide…
When Your Soul Is Searching For Colors,
But You Only Find Blue...
In A Hard Reality,
When Your Covered In Lies,
Trying To Get The Naked Truth…
❣️
Self-love is the most selfless thing
You can ever do...
Self-love is the moment when you get about starting to discover you...

❣️
Departed For A Greater Life ✨️, I Sailed ⛵️ years from the one's I used to know...
Desolation is My Reality 🩶 Far From Being Captive...
I Stand, Emancipated and Prolific, because
Drowning in the Dreams of someone else,
Can't save you...
❣️
Self-love is the most selfless thing you can ever do...
Self-love is the moment when you get about starting to discover you.
