Trust

It was altogether beautiful,
the way He put her insecurities to sleep;
the way He dove into her eyes and starved all the fears;
the way He released all the dreams she had kept coiled beneath her bones.

Sweet Girl

Let people love you, just the way you are.
As flawed as you might be, as unattractive as you may feel,
as unaccomplished as you think you are.

Growth and change are painful,
but we'll get through this journey together.
It hurts more to stay stuck somewhere you don't belong,
walking a path you've so spuriously created.

Feel the fear - though uncomfortable, entirely natural.
Be not submerged, as you are more than your somatic complaints.
Acquire freedom by unearthing your own authentic needs, beliefs, and desires,
for the world will imprison you if you allow it.

Know that despite how loving, harmonious and raw you become,
people can only meet you as deeply as they've met themselves.
Cultivate compassion for all who propose harm,
most importantly: learn to start living.

Consolidated Love

How foolish to think we love only with our hearts,
for the heart is but a blood-pumping organ with a purpose.
When I love, I wish to love with every inch of my being.

With my lips and my fingertips,
with my arms and my actions,
with my freckles and my flaws,
with my wrinkles and my scars,
with my breath and my words.

With all that I am, for as long as I am.

Saviour

A summer rain is passing over,
I was breaking apart at the seams.
forcing myself a debilitating path,
but you're holding on to me.

Standing where the lightening would strike,
a loving reflection of me in your eyes.
All that has come and for all that will be,
constantly reminded: I'm under your skies.

Note to Self

We cannot find peace by avoiding life.

A Reverential Requital

Through loving eyes he sees.
Humbly wrapping himself in servanthood,
blissfully celebrating others, contentedly.
He is vigorously driven, full of endless gentle love.
He asks, he prays, he seeks with a motive pure,
provoking my heart; full of honour and joy.

Such pleasure it is to be a Mrs, to the most premium Mr.
He is tremendous, and I am truly thankful.

You

remain patient with,
encourage and amaze,
mean the world,
complete and impress,
take care of,
surprise
and are home to,
me.
