Sunday

in this moment
I will find happiness
within myself
I will not allow my mind
to think any less
than what I truly am
in this moment
I will become my own being
I will not let society
define who I am
or control how I think
in this moment
I will smile longer
love a little more
laugh a little louder
and forgive without regrets
in this moment
I will find happiness
within myself

Inside my daydream

I want you
to hold you tight
until your hurt is gone
until you can let go
I want to taste you
on my mind
enjoying every part
of your fire
I want
to consume you
to see myself
upon your beautiful smile
I want to feel
the beating
of your heart
in my veins
in every part
of my being
I want to
ebb and flow
with you
getting lost
within each other

I am

his fingers
gently dance
across my heart
stroking
all the chords
that make up
my entirety
for he has
fallen in love
with ALL of me
the brokenness
of a past
I regret
the scars
that I can’t hide
and the beauty
that I strive
to show each day
he loves
the whole
of my being
because
when all pieced
delicately together
it’s beautiful to him
perfectly imperfect
I am 

Just thinking

There are times in your life, that you sit back and think wow. You think about all the things you survived, when at a time you didn’t think you could. You think about the heart breaks, the ups and downs, the dark rainy days, the beautiful sunny ones and every day in between. You think about how awkward you’ve felt in your own skin over the years and at many points throughout your life. You think about what could have been, what should have been and what will be. You think about all the dreams you gave up on, about all the ones you still want and strive for. You think about the friends you’ve made, and how they’ve shaped you into a part of who you are. The ones you’ve lost and the ones who have drifted. All making a difference, in some way. You think of how time moves so quickly and it’s hard to keep up at times. Hard to hold on, when you feel your hanging from the edge of the earth.

And then you think, of how small we actually are in this vast space. How insignificant most things are. How much we could change just by starting with the person in the mirror. You think about what truly matters in this world, in this life.

Love one another but most importantly, love yourself. It all starts there.
