Being a part of the Alphabet Army isn’t all rainbows and sunshine, even though it looks that way on some occasions. Sure, rainbow flags, glitter, and stunning fashion may be fun to look at, but there’s so much more to the community than just that. Seeing how it is pride month, I thought it would [...]

If You’re Not The One
I happened to post “Baby Don’t Hurt Me.” on Valentine’s Day because I needed something to be up on the blog. It’s been a year, and while I’d still like to believe that, it was so much more than just a filler post. I was a bitter individual who was tired of seeing “love” and [...]
So Long, Farewell!
The suddenness! The sheer suddenness of the move. The unexpected nature of the move. The unpredictability of the move. The fact that there was no warning! 2020 has been an absolute shit show, and even though I was delusional enough to think this would be my year, it, in some way, was. But before I [...]
Landslide
You never really know when it can hit you. One day you’re by yourself, just having the time of your life, and then boom, out of nowhere, you’re not yourself anymore. Every little thing feels like too much and nothing at all, at the same time. It’s dark and too bright, quiet and too loud, [...]
Sitting, Waiting, Wishing
This constant state of ‘what even’ has been my favourite chore of 2020 so far! I feel like you have been my therapist more than my readers because ah shit, here we go again! Settle down, and prepare yourselves for another rant session with your favourite pessimist. When all of this first started, I remember [...]

How To Deal With Your Emotions 101?
“Stop being so emotional. It’s not a good look.” “What are you pouting about today?” “Oh! Look at Mr. or Ms I have no emotions!”. All of us at some point have either said or heard either of these phrases. But why is this even a thing? We always tend to confuse emotions and feelings, [...]
Expectations Vs Reality
We’ve all heard about how balance is key. And while it doesn’t seem like any of us truly know how to do that, especially when there’s this expectation based on how practically everybody’s life looks downright perfect. What’s worse is we know it’s a sham. We know that in reality, their life is far from [...]
Never Too Late
*Trigger Warning* I’ve always believed that it is very important to talk about mental health, but today I will also be talking about suicide. Please bear in mind that these are my opinions, and should in no way influence you. So if you’re uncomfortable with, or unable to read about sensitive topics like this, please [...]
Why You Need To Let Go?
Funky Poet has been my random virtual diary since 2013. What first started on Blogspot, gradually moved onto WordPress, and I eventually got my domain name too. But the one thing that never changed was my inconsistency! “But Simone, you’ve been so consistent with your posts lately!”. I’m just as surprised as you. I’ve never [...]
