I’ll give you time, time to find yourself while I develop the pieces of me I tried so hard to get from you. How is it that I couldn’t see that the reflection of what I lacked within myself are what pushed me away from you. How selfish, to say you love someone and try to paint them to be something they are not, i’m sorry for all the pressure I put you through. I won’t keep drowning your roots in water when you’re not in a rush to grow and neither will I strip myself of my leaves to meet your naked roots, instead we could continue to blossom together. I’ll let it simply rain on us, since its clear we both have some growing to do. And I hope that in the end it will still be me and you. See my love for you is unconditional, through short stems and naked roots. I’ll be there, we’ll make it through the seasons because that’s what strong plants do. I’ll have something to look forward to knowing not just that it ends in a stronger me but it will also end with me & you. – my headache and my treatment, this one’s for you.
Growth.

Hey i’m Rachelle Garcia! Almost sure that if you got to this page you somewhat know me but i’ll tell you guys a little about myself anyways. I am 19 years old and i’m from the Bronx, Dominicana! I am currently attending the University at Albany. This blog is long overdue but a recent occurence in my life pushed me to actually do it, writing has always been the way in which I believe I best express myself and it always seems like a release when things in my life are a little too much to handle. I have been writing poems for years but yet I never had the courage to share them so please bare with me. I don’t have a set description to this blog yet but I am leaning towards life experiences and heartbreaks through poetry at most. I want this page to be your sanity when the world feels a little too heavy to handle. I thank my friends for the support and the encouragement, and I thank you guys for visiting as well. Hope you enjoy! View all posts by Rachelle G.
