Millennial Tech-Slave-Whore

Here I am
Your millennial tech-slave-whore to the American Dollar and Dream
Destroy my soul
Put an Apple sticker on my intake forms at the loony bin
Soft glow illuminating my face
False-self smiling outside
Deep down?
Numb, numb, numb
Worst nightmare: a power outage
Trademark my ass
Give me a number, then send me back to the zombie world
Faces in phones, no real connection
Walking into traffic
Blind
Hypnotized by Kim Kardashian’s latest ass shot on Instagram 
A soulless, dying breed
Ding, ding, ding

Stand | Believe | ​Nourish

Stand for yourself, and if some days you forget who you are, that’s ok … just keep standing.

Believe in yourself, even after you’ve failed an uncomfortable amount of times.

Nurture yourself, for everything planted is in a state of fruition.

Determined

**Tells self** Stay determined. Life isn’t linear. Persist. Never give up on creating the life you dream of, and if it can’t be exactly so, then manifest the essence of it all. Be open to new possibilities. Love big. Don’t hesitate. Don’t be afraid to show your heart. Never give up on yourself.
