She's Burning
About
She’s burning is the metaphorical ‘room of my own’; a room wherein I can divulge the scrambled contents of my brain. She’s an amalgamation of my wildest percolating thoughts, the innumerable things I adore and the big scary feelings seeking a place to call home. She’s my playground to explore the writing styles I resonate with intimately, sans ego and self-consciousness. I commandeer this swing set. For the most part, I'm just here to set myself free. However, if you’re coming along for the ride, I’ll push you to high enough that your stomach drops. Yeah, I’ll thrill you for free.
As for me
I’m a woman doused in complexity.
I live to feed my insatiable hunger.
A hunger bordering on greed that isn’t satiated with scraping the surface.
A hunger that yearns for density and inexplicable beauty.
I’m uninhibited
&
I flirt with life incessantly.
I want life to pierce my skin and penetrate my bones.
I extract meaning out of everything.
I slurp on sincerity and sentimentality like I'll die of thirst without it.
Suppressing my feelings doesn’t come naturally to me.
This is the only version of me me I know.
