sometimes
the heart breaks
so beauty
can bloom

learn to be still
why do we feel we must give
to receive love–
why can’t we just ‘be’
and feel worthy?
starry nights
in the chaos
of your darkest nights
let the ocean in your mind be still
and see the universe
reflected
in its surface.
heart & soul
water the garden of your heart
until the roots
reach your soul,
and there is no place
that beauty
doesn’t blossom.
ghosting
sometimes in our human form
we can still be ghosts—
we use our skin
to distract from the pain—
every smile—
all our surface beauty
just a mask
for something deeper
that hides
within.
paradise lost
i feel nostalgic
for a place
i imagined
but never
really
knew.

soul speak
if the language of the heart
is hope
than the language of the soul
is truth–
the heart may lie
but deep down
the soul
always knows.
all apologies
i couldn’t trust your words
so your apologies
never meant
that much
to me.
cold
no amount of wishing
turns your sour wine
sweet
yet i still find myself
drinking until
i am full.
