"American Woman" by Jessica Michelle

American woman,
walking right on by.
Wearing a-line skirts
to hide her thighs.
Tossing pennies into
the fountain of youth;
covering herself up
to banish the truth.
Nip and tuck,
from head to toe.
Her true self,
she doesn't know.
Late at night ,
she sits alone.
Waiting for the "answer"
to phone.
American woman,
inside out...
lying to herself
only to cover the doubt...


Always Blushing,

"Crashing down on me" by Jessica Michelle

Crashing down on me.
Opening up
an endless sea.
Tidal waves
come falling in,
washing away
my every sin.
Watching me take
this final breath,
to lead me to 
the darkest depths.
Final step
about to take.
Greatest victory?
Greatest mistake?
Open eyes,
soul runs free.
Echos of ages
calling to me.
Take me back,
again once more.
Times run out.
Final score.
Lead me to 
the light again.
Sweet surrender, 
about to begin.
Open up
let me in.
Watch me now.
Lets begin.
Grant me now
one wish 
I plea...
Forgive my heart
and let me be.
Time to start.
No need to see.
What once was lost 
now set free....


Always Blushing,
Jessica Michelle

Day 1 : Five Ways to Win My Heart

1. Be honest with who you are. There is nothing worse then "getting to know someone" only to find out that they were putting on a show the whole time. I want to get to know you. The real you. The you that you are when you wake up in the morning. The you that you are when you go to sleep at night.

2. Let me know that you are thinking of me. Chocolates and diamonds are nice. But, what I really want is someone who isn't afriad/ashamed to let me know that I am on his mind. A phone call takes a minute... a text takes seconds. To you it might not mean much, but to a sap like me, letting me know I am on your mind means alot.

3. Have your own beliefs. I believe what I believe and there is not a single person out there who is going to change that. I need to be with someone who has firm beliefs and will stand by them. Life is better when you believe in something.

4. Listen to me when I talk. Remember the things that make me smile. And remember the things that make me cry (don't do those).

5. Have a creative soul and don't be afraid to let it shine. Show your spark to the world. Never hid it for anyone.

30 Day Challenge

So, when it comes to writing,  I have been really slacking lately. I have decided, to do this 30 Day Challenge to help get me back into the swing of things. I am hoping this will inspire me to get back into writing.

We are at our sexiest when we feel the most confident. We are at our least attractive when we are sure of our inadequacies and practically cave in on ourselves to conceal them… We all handicap ourselves with insecurity, and it’s up to us to reset the self-worth scale and alter the message we sound out into the world… So how do we remind ourselves of our fabulousness without letting our self-doubt or the criticism of others drag us down? Triggers. We wear heels. We get waxed. We do things that make us attractive to ourselves and, therefore, able to allow others to do the same. And they work… Confidence is a state of mind, but sometimes we need to give ourselves permission to realize it. There is nothing wrong with embracing the tools that allow us to get there; heels, bikini waxes, whatever. As long as we’re aware of the fact that we are worth the same with or without these tools…
