Mind, Body, Eyes, Teeth (A Social Deduction)

Mind, body, eyes, teeth

Sunlight strains

Vitamin D isn't that important anyway

My Disney princess dreams are true

Snow White has never had more competition

Although

Chipping polish

Black and stark against my skin

Might put me back

A few steps

Snow White was fourteen

In that movie

Her prince was thirty-one

In the original story

Weird

That even as children

We learn

That it's okay

To be a dick

Tiana had three jobs

Her whole movie was spent

As a fucking frog

Real representation Disney

Very nice

Mulan's name

Wasn't Fa Mulan

But Hua wasn't

Feminine enough

For pop culture

I suppose

The first princess

That dealt with mental illness

Was cast off

As the villain

Elsa wouldn't have cracked

If the ice weren't so heavy

Even Tinkerbell

Was portrayed poorly

My dreams of being

A Disney princess

Died a long time ago.

Whether it affects you or not, it’s always good to be aware of how others struggle.  One thing I find difficult to work through in my own life is being a Bisexual woman while in a relationship with a man. I’ve had an illustrious dating life, as I’m sure some of you may know (if you know me in real life), and that has included men, women, and everything in between. Nothing had ever stuck around quite long enough to solidify this feeling. However, something that feels harder this time, besides being 100% commi...

the funeral

  I went to a funeral today The body was fresh and smelled like fire The casket was closed but I knew who it was There was no name, no photo and the room itself was cold There were no visitors except for my heart my soul and my brain My brain walked out at the scent of smoke My heart left you flowers and a life of well-wishes and my soul crawled in your casket and curled around yours.

the muse

  the love we feel will forever grow whether in love or out the bonds we leave are too entwined in our souls i could never hate you for i love and i love until i am torn and even then i will never stop loving for you are too entwined in my soul the love we held will not compare for the muse you’ve become but those you love who do not love you will become poetry instead
