I know what Real feels like.
When it’s real there are no games.
No shame to be ourselves.
No limits to our desires and dreams, not even our own self-destruction.
  
🖤
I see you…
Your eyes tell me everything I need to know.
Yah…..That fall looks pretty steep.
As I Inch closer to the edge every time we meet.
Adrenaline exceeds.
So I step back about 10 feet.
Yah….That fear, it gets me too.
Losing myself for a moment, as I dance in the darkness of my own shame.
Becoming Self-destructive in my own way.
But I’ve played this game before.
As I convince myself that this can only be fleeting.

Bc….if you have lost a love….
a love so deep that the world stopped spinning.

I guess,
The game can seem tolerable for a while.
But only for a while.

And when I’m ready….

I’ll jump, if you jump….

Hoping that it’s you.
on the Edge.
waiting for me.

Don’t let your anger defeat you.

You’re better than that.

I’m everywhere, can’t you see.
In every light that surrounds you.
Even the night’s sky has stars.

I was always so sure of a pure Soul.
But we’re all tainted in some way.
Born sinners.
Our Shadows linger In the dark.
Close your eyes;
Getting Lost in this paradox.
As we Learn to live
Live In the freedom of all things.
All things Loved and created. 🖤

There is beauty in it.
I promise.
You don’t have to seek it out or search for it.
For it lies in the simplicity of things.
It Lives in Love.
And it breathes in you. 🖤

Dear Daughter,

Always be Weird and eccentric.
Always be unique and different.
Light up the world with all your greatest passions.
And understand that relationships Are sacred.

For your signature is forever written.
In the sands of time
this world has given.
Always reminding you.
That there’s no one else like you.

Understand that,
You can change things.
Things bigger than ourselves.

Be in the moment.
As it is.
And listen for the answers.
God will give.

🖤

This line states nothing.
This statement says nothing.
To feel nothing.
Lost in no thought
No time
No worries.
Just this peaceful sound
Of Silence.
Among These Melancholy Trees
that speak nothing.
Because the wind speaks whispers and my heart feels empty.
But these trees stand sturdy and that’s why I sit with them.
