You Underneath Time

A piece I wrote a couple years ago, but haven't shared much.

You Underneath Time
Hailey Long

You Underneath Time is a poem about a broken heart and friendship. This is the tea sis.


You Underneath Time

I am not okay

I hate you

You don't know boundaries

You don't mean sorry

Sorry doesn't mean anything

Sorry, you said over and over

Over time it may get better

Over time it may not

Not looking back

Not thinking twice

Twice this has happened to me

Twice it's ended a friendship

Friendships don't always work out

Friendships are continually broken

Broken hearts are not easily healed

Broken relationships can not mend

Mend my heart I feel so blue

Mend my mind to think something new

New days bring new thoughts

New friendships bring new memories

Memories the good and the bad

Memories I think about all night

Nighttime is scary

The night leads me to think

Think about your actions

Think about what you've done

Done is all I can say

Done are my feelings today

Today I can't bear to see you

Today I want to forget

Forget that night

Forget trusting you

You don't understand

You don't know how I hurt

Hurt me once

Hurt me again

Again I cry

Again I made mistakes

Mistakes have become a "habit"

Mistakes are no longer just that

That thought is in my head

That thought plays continually

Continually I loved you

Continually you were forgiven

Forgiven no more

Forgiven not this time

Time will speak

Time will heal

Heal me

Heal my heart

Hearts may break

Hearts will change

Change this mindset

Change my mind

Mind my business

Mind your own

Own your mistakes

Own up to this

This is over

This cannot go on

On to something new

On a new path

Path to happiness

Path to a good time

Time to forget

Time has a limit

Limit the bad

Limitless the good

Good is around the corner

Good times never stop

Stop trying to be ok

Stop trying to make us work

Work for what you want

Work for the best

Best friends may not stay

Best days are yet to come

Come along this journey

Come to a new me

Me myself and I is what I have

I am what I need

Need some time

Need some space

Space to be free

Space to be me

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.

Blair Waldorf
Stop Hollywood

For those of you who have watched "Gossip Girl" before (and maybe more than just once), you know how important of a character Blair Waldorf is. Without Blair, the show doesn’t have any substance, scheme, or drama. Although the beginning of the show started off with Blair’s best friend Serena returning from boarding school, there just simply is no plot without Blair. With that being said, Blair’s presence in the show in much more complex than that. Her independent and go-getter ways have set an example for "Gossip Girl" fans since the show started and has not ended even years after the show ended. Blair never needed another person to define who she was and she certainly didn’t need a man to do that for her. When she envisioned a goal, she sought after it, and took it. This is why Blair’s demeanor encompasses strong women like her.

Singing is something I do all day, every day. It doesn't matter where I am or who's around. If I feel like singing, I'm going to. It's probably annoying sometimes, but I don't care -- I love to sing! If I'm not singing, I'm probably humming, sometimes without even realizing it. So as someone who loves to sing, these are some of the feelings and thoughts I have probably almost every day.
