I’ve covered a lot on this blog, and there’s still so much I wish to share. My mind is truly unlimited when it comes to words, emotions, and wishes. I’ve shared a lot of my failures, and my triumphs too (going on 40 days without a smidget of porn). I have an incredible following (2,030 followers as of publishing), and I hope it grows even more. I’ve been posting since August 2016, and I’ve come to know some of you. Maybe you feel the same way about me, and maybe you don’t (that’s fine), but I’m grateful for the support, encouragement, and joy you’ve brought me. I wrote a little piece for you in return….
Dropped into my life
just a bunch of orange dots
in the corner of my screen
You seem to be overly confident
in someone you’ve never seen
I don’t know why
all I said was hi
I guess you saw the grief, the strife
in years you’ve already lived
and you pressed send
You have confidence
in me
and while it seemed to lack common sense
totally
I am strengthened
by your words
truth and kindness
never heard
Your care
undeniable
and your face
part of this revival
In a world
with so many choices
I have
so few voices
I love all you
but to Tina, Maureen, Charlie, Stevie, Patty, Jeanne, Summer, Sascha, Kelly, Brian, Michelle, Little Person, Anna, Rachel, Davy, Beth, Okoto, Kendra, Brenda, Rosema, Marisa, Fallen Saint, Ana, Jonathan, Patty, Wallace Peach, Ivy, Vonita, Dorinda, Joice, and the Secret Poetess
you’re a special group

I loved this Dev 🙂 I really care about you! It takes a lot of guts to write, let alone putting our feelings into words. You have a heartfelt way and I always feel it when I read what you write. I truly believe in you. You are a wonderful person and even though we’ve never met in person, I know this! It just takes time to understand ourselves and learn that whatever we are, we are and we have to learn how to accept it for what it is. We are each individuals for a reason. YOU are YOU and for many reasons. So, please keep doing what you do best my friend. WRITE YOUR HEART OUT because you do it so well~ I love you Devereaux~MOOOAH!

Tina this is incredible. Thank you thank you thank you. My words feel strong because I, the person, feel strongly, and I really appreciate it that someone else can feel that. I’ve never always had it right, and there’s so much I still don’t understand. There’s also a lot I still can’t do, and probably won’t ever do, but when I have someone who’s rooting for me to go all the way, no matter what…that does something for a person, Tina. I don’t think I’ve ever had someone as confident in me as you. I know I doubt myself a lot, and still wonder if I’ll ever get my dreams, but having unwavering support makes chasing worth it. Thank you Tina.

This comment made me smile because people like you are incredible and don’t get enough praise. I don’t look at you any different than anyone else. I have my fair share of fucking issues too! Trust me. I mean every word I say to you. I have connected with so many great people here and it’s an amazing feeling to be able to make you feel stronger by words that I write to you!
