As we age,
weather beaten,
new beauty appears.

Beauty from the story told from our rust,
manifesting outside growth,
marks and breaks.

A piece of art,  
increasing in value.

No longer a block of material,
innocent to the world.
Increasing our worth,
with each lesson learnt and running after our true thirst.

learn to forgive
not because they deserve chances

it's because you deserve peace
a peace of mind

learn to love yourself
incase when the time comes
that no one's gonna love you
right and sincerely
or when they left you
alone
you have yourself

that's not being selfish

it's self care that comes from love
always remember that

If food is created to eat
And money to buy

Then i hope god created you to be mine
You belong to me

I loved you like a Moon
You loved me like a star

-but

why is it that we're so many?
loving you had consequences
Ericka Mar 2020
If you always try your best
Then you'll never have to wonder
About what you could have done
If you'd summoned all your thunder

-And

If your best
Was not good
As you hoped it will be,
You still could say,
"I gave today
All that i had in me"
Keep trying

I read about some love today.
I could only smile.
Closed my eyes
to that good feeling,
gald that yearning's still alive.

I read about some love today.
Only shed a single tear.
This isn't love you just read about,
This is love that you must feel.
love......
