I've come to realize looking into a mirror and expecting perfection is stupid. My eyebrows may not look the same, and my nose may curve upward and slightly to the left, i could point out all my flaws, but im not. Instead I'll look into the mirror and say, "my mouth is kind and my eyes are bright. I am a art form of cool lines and curves and blessed to have two feet to take me traveling onward."
I'm kind of realizing my body is my own and so I've signed rights to it and taken the tour of the nooks and crannies that detail my body. I've come to love my scars and revel in my imperfections. Loving myself for myself is perfection I think

she saw utterance in the stars
and legacies in snowflakes
her steady hand gripped the pencil
as the universe poured from her
she had the power of entire worlds
placed between her fingers and palm

The hours disappear instantly like blown out
flames off weary candles.
But time is no match for such raging hearts.

We would still hold up the receding
indigo ceiling above us.
We would prop up the sullen moon to stave
off the dawning day.
We will clutch the dwindling stars
and hug them close to our chests.

Because we know the words too well.
Words we simply couldn't cage except to say that...

We are not yet ready to leave
but we look forward to
diving headlong into
the inevitable restart.


Just so the day could grant us a
slate brand new.
Just so that come night,
we could begin all over again.

You know when your heart hurts, but you know that if you fix it will hurt in an entirely diffrent way? Loving you hurts
It hurts
It hurts
