Pure

For so long I waited for someone to care for me. To protect me. After 42 years, I have yet to find that person. 

Last year I made a promise to myself to protect myself. My body. Heart. Mind. Soul. In doing so this realization comes with a cost. Not for me. I’m prioritizing, reorganizing my life, for the better. The cost is you. To you. Of you.

I’m done making excuses for people that abuse me. Use me. The ones that only know how to take, because they know a giver and lover when they see them. I no longer have time for the ones that drain me. My body. Heart. Mind. Soul. Time. Especially time. Don’t waste my time. 

I’m not going to call you. Text you. To explain how you disrespected me. Disregarded me. Abused me. Used me. You know. You’re an adult, you know. 

I’m not going to beg you to stand by my side. I’m not going to ask you to get your shit together. I have my steadies. The people that have always been there. I have an inner circle. It may be small. I want it small. I do not need to put my energy into people that don’t know their place, that don’t know their peace. That don’t know my worth and especially don’t know their own.

I don’t say these things to be a bitch. To be conceited. I say these things because I know my value. I want you to know yours too. 

Im leaving Facebook. I gave myself a year but I most likely won’t be back. Im on Instagram. TikTok. 

Happy 2023 to everyone. Hope you make it everything you could ever want🖤
