“You made a goddamn mess of me but watch me rise from the ashes.”

I don’t know where you are or who you are anymore but I’ll always remember us.

Hold me. Just hold me. And maybe in the morning I’ll be ready to love you.

Sometimes even strong independent woman need help.

Leaving was the hardest most liberating act of self preservation and self love I did.

My body aches for you and I think it always will.

The toughest decision I ever made was staying alive when life was unbearable.

Loving myself is a skill I am still learning to master.

I resent you for being okay when you broke me.

The reason you fear me is why all men do I am a woman your fear is only natural.

I’m still learning to love the parts of me you taught me to hate.

Do your worst but I promise you will regret ever crossing me.

I hate tequila but I’ll drink it straight from the bottle if it means forgetting you.

Behind every great man is no one before him is a goddess and she will not be overshadowed.

Darling, our story was a beautifully tragic thing. Magical as it happened unbearable when it ended.

Magic is what happened when I chose me over you.

I stared into the face of death and death blinked first.

You are never, under any circumstance, responsible for the abusive actions of another.

The abuse of women and girls is the most pervasive and unaddressed human right violation on earth.

Bullies want to abuse you. Instead of allowing that, you can use them as your personal motivators. Power up and let the bully eat your dust.

When personal freedom’s being abused, you have to move to limit it. That’s what we did in the announcement I made last weekend on the public housing projects, about how we’re going to have weapon sweeps.

Talk of the abuses of slavery! Humbug! The thing itself is the essence of all abuse!

No government power can be abused long. Mankind will not bear it…. There is a remedy in human nature against tyranny, that will keep us safe under every form of government.

I ask you in circles, and you shape them as triangles in my head.

Through the machineries of greed, pettiness, and the abuse of power, love occurs.
