You are the Sky
Happy Waffle Mar 2019
an open field. beautiful. endless.
eyes closed, you lie down on the soft grass, letting your mind soar.
you allow your brain to feel every feeling it can, unapologetically.
fear
self-critique
shame
inadequacy
fear once again
a constant, daunting f e a r
thinking
overthinking
silence
a confusing silence
a calm, yet utterly chaotic silence
and suddenly, the world stops. just for that moment.
just for you. to let you breathe in. to let you breathe in
love
compassion
kindness
acceptance
courage
a passion for bravely standing, existing,
and embracing every one of your flaws
and having the revolutionizing strength to
grow
heal
and love thyself
despite the obstacles that you see, that blur your visions
of dreaming big and chasing the sky
the sky, that is
beautiful. endless. ‎
as you open your eyes up to the expanse
of blue
you see the truest of you
the ability to endure unpredicted thunderstorms
and still bring a hopeful light to your little world
breathe out the flaws you define yourself by
because don’t you see?
you are the sky

— The End —
