“My mind is entangled in the thought of you.”

Darling, let go I promise you will never want to carry that pain again.

Her name is foreign on my tongue, I repeat it over and over and over in my head hoping one day it will sound familiar.

I was searching for relief in places I would never find peace.

She bloomed from the depths of darkness through the cracks she was brought to life by the sun.

I am ready to love the pieces that are weighing me down.

We were playing hide and seek with our shadows simply pretending to grasp for love we could not find in ourselves.

She wanted someone that could swim to the depths of her ocean and not drown in the intensity of her soul.

I feel at home in places I’ve never been.

I am trying to find a way through this dark forest.

An endless fire burns within me whispers in my ear and encourages me to grow past what I can see.

My insecurities gave you too much power over me/ you were the catalyst to my healing/ but you are not the healer/ I am.

When will the leaves begin to change in this body of mine?

Be your love and watch the world change.

And she rose exactly when she was ready to spread her wild wings and release the fire hidden deep in her soul.

My feet are not rooted in the ground I am able to leave the familiar places I have known I am strong enough to grow.

My roots tell secrets my mind will never know but my soul remembers and that is more than enough.

We have to either let go or suffer, because everything will eventually cease. And just because we love something, doesn’t mean it takes us with it.

So we danced in the rain and woke to the haze of a sunrise painted in honey.

My mind eclipsed with love notes I wrote at night.

Some go, some stay, but, darling, I wish you never go away.

Love is a journey, an endless journey. 

Fear is a good doer. It accomplish what love or even hope can’t do.

Kissing you from the neck down to… and kissing you is perilous because there is no end to you and I am scared I will never stop falling if I let myself fall in love with you.

May your next love, bring wholeness and create a sacred space.
