October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month.

At five, I thought every child got punched for disobeying. It took years to realize my home wasn’t safe. Healing didn’t erase my past; it taught me that my past doesn’t get to run the show. 💜

Domestic abuse and homelessness can be closely connected.

35,400 households in England were homeless or threatened with homelessness because of domestic abuse in 2024–25.

My name is on your finger
I own your body and
Soul, I
Own our lives you pay for,
Get sex whenever I please,
You are my trophy,
Never doubt my control
You’ll be mine forever, you know

Another Day

Under your lock
and key
I live
in limbo freedom
wondering
if I’ll ever have my
name
and if
you
will let me survive
with money
I earned
you just usurped;

Under your
lock and key,
my brain
resides
in our basement,
my heart rages
from your
grip

If someone has told you that you are going to fail before you even try, that was never about your ability. Predicting your mistakes is a way to control the story and shift blame in advance. You are not "always" the problem, and you deserve to be supported, not set up.
