I think people reduce Beyoncé’s 20s to “being with Jay-Z” and ignore that she was simultaneously building one of the biggest careers in music. Yes, she loved him. But she wasn’t some girl whose life revolved around her man. She was focused on her craft and her own timeline too.
i was MOVING towards something with so MUCH momentum and FORCE & it felt like it was made for ME. but then, there comes this IMMOVABLE object that doesn’t want me to stop, but ABSORBS my mass, FEEDS my mass. i feel WHOLE. it’s felt like i’ve been starving but i now feel WHOLE.
