Where does my love come from?
Pain.
My love knows no bounds,
No limits, no excuses, no other way,
But,
Wholeheartedly.
Because time and time again,
My heart was forgotten.
It was locked away, discarded,
Used as an example,
Left wholly unguarded.
Manipulated, contorted,
Twisted, misled,
My heart has known nothing but boundaries,
And being left behind as it bled.
So today,
I let my love run wild.
My passion, my purpose,
My love,
It's anything but mild.
But how did something so callous,
So half-hearted and careless,
Teach me how to love?
So cold, isolating,
Bitter,
And vulgar.
I no longer wish to know that pain,
And I do not wish to teach that pain.
I no longer want that pain,
And I no longer hold space for that pain.
My heart of love is full,
Whole,
Warm and sweet.
And even soft,
On the hardest days of the week.
My love is now the standard,
My love,
That was once seen as insane.
But that's only because,
I once learned it through pain.
Welcome to the cool kids club!
My name is Jamie and I'm a young (ish) transman born and raised in the Hudson Valley of New York state. I started my transition in May of 2017 and since then, I've made it my mission to live unapologetically as myself and spread awareness through my pursuit of happiness. I am the creator and writer of Spilling T blog, a proud affiliate of TransTape and when I'm not outside with the best dog ever or hanging out with my two cats, I make and sell my own beard care products through Buckaroo's Beard Care. I'm always looking for my next adventure and have been skydiving, road-tripping, hiking in the mountains and even served for a short time in the United States Marine Corps. My life has had its fair share of twists and turns and I hope to use those experiences to create helpful and relatable content that may help someone else navigate a difficult time in life.
