It takes a lot of energy to hide
The shocking ease after naming my autism
My soul longs for connection & my body longs for isolation
The beauty and frustration of being autistic
The shape I no longer fit
A little poem about choosing to heal
Trust builds on itself
A little poem about trusting you
A little sand and soul
The quiet grief of letting them become
It shouldn't have happened. But it did.
It's oddly soothing to hear this.
A tale of two driveways
A Monday morning reflection on shame, play, and the nervous systems we create for each other
The sound of safety
Small signs of healing in a neurodivergent home
You can't shortcut survival
The reality of learned protection
When love stays
Learning to bear witness instead of fixing
