Packing away memories

So, as I’m putting away all the Christmas decor today, I’m thinking of you. Thinking of all the memories we made and the love we shared. I wish I could have had you longer in life, but it wasn’t meant to be. I’m sorry you couldn’t stay.

This is the last thing you gave me before you left and it is still one of my favorite things, ever. I can’t believe it’s been 2 years since you left because to me it feels like it’s been a lifetime. I hate how things feel so different now without you; nothing will ever be the same. 

Until we met again, I’ll visit you in my dreams and keep you alive in the memories I carry with me. 

though your body
is now free
and your soul
is at rest
I miss you 
and I wish
you were here

Hues of blue

her words
beautiful like a rose
in shades of pink
stroke the pages
of his heart
oh so slowly
they touch a part
of him
he keeps hidden
behind a mask
her words
sweet like a dream
in hues of blue
they feel alive
inside his soul
dancing
like a summers breeze
upon the darkness
of the night
her words
finding
all his layers
and still choosing
to love him
regardless
of what the world says

Happy Friday

Love comes in many ways, in many forms, and on many levels. To love and be loved in return is the greatest blessing, no matter what form. As long as it’s real.

Once you start peeling back the layers you really start to see your truth, your worth, and your strength. With layers comes balance. In order to love and accept others, you must learn to love yourself first.

I know that’s easier said than done, but if you can get past the surface, you’ll find it.

It all starts with you. Be beautiful, be YOU
