Entry 3︎︎︎ Woman
Written by Isabel Romero
Relishing in the disturbed. I have never truly met these feelings that feel so foreign and standoffish. I have shuffled and avoided and dissociated as if I had a reason to run. However, as this period ends, I desire to formally introduce myself. Consider this a proper introduction, as one might expect long-awaited acquaintances to endure.
You know me. I believe I am brave enough to encounter you, fully.
Why must I fear you? Is it a possibility of the unknown becoming unwanted? Is hopelessness embodied? However, it may be diagnosed, I believe there to be a duality to these emotions that I am timid to embrace. It is time to validate and see myself as the complex, intricately designed being that is more than one thing at once.
Creative, while also uninspired.
Confident, while weak.
Found, while also lost.
Fearful, while also faithful.
Stuck, while in motion.
Feminine, while masculine.
Mindful, while also destructive.
Decided, while floating.
Awake, while sleepwalking.
Happy, while also saddened.
Heavy, while carefree.
