inside the element
of your existence
I saw everything
in one single moment
that you once were
and
somewhere in between
the space of you and I
is the capacity
of every heartbeat
that my body has held
for you

Within this lifetime
and even through
this entire universe
this vast space
of our existence
I found you
and I know now
that I was always
meant to love you
within this lifetime
This melody
I close my eyes and smile
as I feel the strumming
of the music
flowing across my skin
remembering the time we danced
your lips making promises
for your body to keep
time slows
and my hips sway
in rhythm with your own
and I know
in this perfect moment
I’ll never feel
the harmony of this melody
quite like this
again
Look in the mirror
I know we all have those days when we stand in front of the mirror and wonder who we are exactly. Who am I? When did we let so many things in our life and especially society determine how we see ourselves? Why is it important what others think of us and not what we think of ourselves? We hold up different masks to see which we want to wear and push all the others to the side for another day.
When will we look in the mirror and say enough? I am beautiful beyond my skin, I am worthy. I don’t need to let my past define who I am right here and now. I can let go of all that’s happened to me. I can move on from a broken home, abusive relationships, drugs, alcohol, doubt, and self-destruction. I can let go and move on, it is possible.
I know at the end of the day when we’re standing in front of the mirror, no masks, no makeup. Just raw flesh and bones, we truly are the same. We are made up of the same matter and bleed the same color. We’re more alike than we all may realize. We often close our eyes so we don’t have to see all the flaws within, but we are missing the most beautiful thing to look at OURSELVES. We’re all in this one life TOGETHER, why not love one another along the way?
So, the next time you look in the mirror, I hope you realize that your flaws are just misunderstood beautiful pieces of yourself. You are beautiful just as you are. You are worthy. You are exactly where you are meant to be at this exact moment in time. Trust that.
Happy Sunday to you all. Should you ever need some extra encouragement and love, you know where I am
Unafraid
every time I look into your eyes
I see every moment
of you and I trapped inside
and when I kiss you
I know that I am unafraid
of how your darkness tastes
Something about you
there is just something about you
that is so ingrained
under my skin
that at times
it takes my breath away
and I need a map back
to my own heartbeat
The fabrics of life
I watched her fold the fabric
neatly and gather it gently
under my peaceful face
I remember her hands
comfortable and tender
tucking me away in bed
telling me stories
of Kings and Queens
and a land far far away
the way her mouth would smile
as she reached the end
of the fairytale
I remember the softness
of her voice
as whispers of goodnight
filled my sleepy head
and as I drift off to dream
that’s how I’ll remember her
in the quietness of the silence
that’s where she will live
for eternity
Dancing shadows
sometimes the night
secretly finds me
dreaming of the dancing
shadows of you and I
and I know
that at least in dreams
I’ll love you
with just a little bit
of everything that consumes me
Untold stories
I often wonder
in moments
of untold stories
waiting to be read
how many words
will need to be written
until we find our way back
together
Luminous
standing at the window
she reads their love letters
to the universe
an infinite reflection
of who she was
staring back at her
as the colors of the moon
paint a luminous mural
across the room
the thought of him
comes flooding back through her
like it was just yesterday
and the goodbye
hurts just the same
a promise once made
now
just a bitter-sweet memory
