“Making me feel small won’t make you feel tall I’ve faced bigger giants than you and watched them fall.”

Grace is found flourishing beneath skin blooming from each scar.

I am the moments and memories from the past tied up with good intentions and mistakes from the future.

Growth is no longer seeking acceptance from those who cannot give it to themselves.

If you want to see the world as it should be, read poetry.

I fell for you dissolved like sugar in tea – completely.

I was quiet, yes but I heard all you never said, your silence read.

When I met my darkness clouds | swirled the night sky | refracted light danced in the wild eyes | freedom came for me.

I don’t want the world but I want you in mine.

I will remain soft in a world marked by hardness.

You were waiting for the sunset while I was longing for the moonrise.

If hearts are our homes, why do we let others break windows and throw stones?

Whole, loved and worthy just as you are.

From each scar today bloom the flowers of a kinder tomorrow.

You are already more than enough.

Don’t reorient yourself to fit in to an upside down world.

Let’s get perfectly lost recklessly joyful, let’s rest a while in this sweet reverie.

She is my star, my light, and warmth an orbit I could never fall off.

She is the sound of the rain kissing a river with all the colors of the spring.

Falling in love in this crowded cafe.

I’ll keep reaching out my hand hoping one day you’ll be brave enough to take it.

No matter how desperately I want to stop falling I am already in motion.

Even my tears fall for you.

Please, don’t listen to all the hate and take a little break to fall in love with you.

To leap or to fall: that is love’s question.
