The Silence Before the Scream
They thought she broke. But she was just quiet long enough to hear God clearly. She don’t broadcast breakdowns. She heals in silence, rises in strategy. The stillness? That’s sacred. The scream? That’s coming. And when it does— it won’t be a cry… it’ll be a call. -Kae Jaye-
She Didn’t Scream
(but you heard her anyway) She didn’t scream. She never had to. Her presence did the talking. Her silence? That was the echo. They mistook her calm for weakness— thought because she didn’t clap back, she didn’t carry the ammo. But baby, she been packing truth in every glance, grace in every pause, and thunder … Continue reading She Didn’t Scream
The Weight No One Sees
This week was heavy. And not just because of one thing—everything felt like too much. People see the smile. They hear the laugh. And they assume I’m okay. Strong. Unshaken. Unbothered. But the truth? No one ever stops to ask if the strong one is even holding on. They don’t ask if I’ve cried more … Continue reading The Weight No One Sees

Who Sees The Strong One?
Today I’m tired. Tired of being told to be pleasant while people pour their mess onto me. Tired of being humble while the world chips away at me like I’m made of stone and not spirit. They say, “Don’t return the energy.” But how am I supposed to keep giving when the leeches keep draining? … Continue reading Who Sees The Strong One?
The Grace I Give
Journal Reflection: “The Grace I Give” I give grace because I know what it feels like to be overwhelmed, to carry more than I can explain, to be in a space where words won’t come but feelings won’t rest. I’ve made room for people to process, to stumble, to be unsure—because I don’t love conditionally. … Continue reading The Grace I Give
She Bleeds Words
She bleeds words— the kind you don’t say out loud, the ones that sit in your chest like smoke in a locked room, waiting for a way out that doesn’t set the whole place on fire. She carries them quiet, like a story no one stuck around to finish. Heavy words. Unsaid truths. Pages folded … Continue reading She Bleeds Words
Dear Valentine
While society hypes the glamour, The glitz, and all that mundane Shit.. Here I sit with the most simplistic wish. Praying that you’d make it my gift.

Moment
Couldn't have dreamed of a better scenario, A better specimen to have created such a show. An exchange of energy so pure and high vibrational, That nothing about it presented itself as conditional. Any other time, I would have stayed in my lane, But you... you created a moment that initiated a main change. A … Continue reading Moment
