No one saw her coming.
She didn’t cry when she arrived.
She didn’t ask for a name.
She didn’t wonder if she was welcome.

Belladona wasn’t born.
She manifested.

She wasn’t always this.
There was a time she went by another name.
When she spoke softly.
When she thought loving meant breaking first.
When she mistook surrender for sacrifice.
When silence was strategy, not power.

She was broken.Not once, not twice—many times.
By hands that touched without holding.
By promises that sounded beautiful but meant nothing.
By absences dressed up as freedom.

Until one day, something inside her stopped asking for permission.
And then, she didn’t scream.
She decided.

Belladona isn’t a reaction.
She’s a structure.
She’s a woman who chose not to dim herself.
Who realized she didn’t need to become stronger—she needed to become unreachable to those who couldn’t hold her.

She didn’t come to heal.
She came to rewrite herself.
She didn’t come to be understood.
She came to be felt.
And feared.
And desired without justification.

Belladona is the exact moment a woman stops pleasing.
And begins building herself from the ashes—not as if the fire destroyed her,but as if it revealed her.

If this moved something in you, don’t stay on the surface.
The next piece is not public.
