you kept knocking
me down
because you knew if I got up
i would probably
walk away.
Tag: peace
calling me home
lately
i’ve been longing
for something
i lost–
a touch i can’t fully remember
but one
i can’t bring myself
to forget.
be patient with yourself
put the pieces back together
and be still–
just as it took time to grow
it takes time to heal
as well.
beneath the stars
in the midst of the chaos
i closed my eyes
and watched the stars bloom slowly
through the darkness–
and in this moment
i knew
i would be
okay.
soul
her love was
the night sky
on which my whole
universe
was painted.
heartbeat
i have learned
to love
this body
which has held
together
my broken pieces
so beautifully.
judgements
do not define
who you are
based on the reflections of yourself
in people
who don’t understand you.
when you left
i wished
to get so lost
that the suffering
would never
find me.
bare
i opened myself
to you
and all you did
was take.
tender hearts
do not be surprised
when men
without the patience
to understand you
do not have
the ability
to love you.
