how do we speak when all we see is

despair,,

complete loss of the human heart,

of human life?

We stay silent because we no longer see others;

because we feel we must face the world alone.

We are drawn to light-

though, it does not have to be

the radiating beams of another;

Sometimes, our own light is the sun others orbit.

I am imperfection. 

I am moments of weakness, 

grasping at air to help keep me steady.

I am fire slowly contained.

But I’m still a light -

finding my way home through the smoke.

Sometimes,

I just want to go home.

...get lost in a space

where I’m completely recognized.

Sometimes,

I need the reminder

that I wasn’t always

this version of myself.

Sometimes,

I need the nostalgia

of the life

that used to know me.

[handwrittenforher]

Even when there are a million different words that want to be spoken - I only ever want to say I love you.

I sleep better

In her arms.

I feel at home.

With her heart beating

against my back,

reminding me how much 

I am wanted;

reminding me how much

I am known.

I always feel I am

in search of something greater;

That the magic Life brings

is never meant to stay.

I have only recently come to realize

that it is not the magic that is fleeting -

It is my belief

that I am.

What inspired you to write?

Love. Primarily love lost, but also new love and self love. That human experience is something that really inspires me.

[handwrittenforher]

why do I feel the need

to collect the bits and pieces of me

that fall

away.

when will I understand

the space makes room

for change?

It’s okay.

When I look back on my life, I know for certain my twenties will have been my greatest teacher. I’ve known heartache, and immeasurable loss. I’ve lost myself, and found her again with the help of a new love. Self love. I have harnessed the art of forgiving, and allowed myself to release what I can’t change. Ive learned to love myself- inside and out- and know that every roll of my belly is beautiful. I love my body. I’ve learned to love who I am. I’ve learned I love who I have become. Happiness is not dependent upon another person, but it sure is sweeter to share it. My twenties taught my me how much I adore my siblings; as much as I love my parents, I don’t have to be them. I have gained true passion in life. A passion to live, and a passion to help others live. My twenties have taught me that things won’t go as planned. Timelines are unrealistic. I have learned my voice is not to be taken for granted. I can fall in love with so many things at once. I have learned the love I deserve is not always the love I have given. I have learned to apologize even when I’m not ready to. I have learned I can always try harder. My twenties taught me that my story is beautiful because it’s mine.

follow along

to the tempo of my tongue.

Your lips will

help write the lyrics.

All that I ask is

you tell me when you’ve let go.

Dont leave guessing.

I deserve to know

when the light I’ve brought you

has burnt out.
