its been more than a day
yet it feels longer than that
re-thought
re-touched
re-done
everything still reminds me of you
and i know its bad
when the music doesn't help

The stars are out tonight
I gaze at them from my yard
My hair spread out on the grass
My mind races
Focused on how far away these glittering lights are
An entire universe is out there
But it was not made for me
I am small
But can a light still burn inside me?
Especially if I feel so dark?
I like to think we are all stars
And astronomers at the same time
Searching for our place in the galaxy
Will you be a star with me?
With you I no longer feel dimmed
Can you let me illuminate your world?
I’ve been pulled in by your gravity
There’s no way to leave your orbit now
Even if I wanted to

its not the clothes on a persons back,
its not the way they look,
the color of their skin,
or the amount of makeup on their face.
it is the music they like,
the passion they have,
its what makes them smile,
and how they choose to love
that defines a person.
the body is not something
to judge, but something
to love.

i swear i saw
all the water
in the world when
i saw you cry
for the first time

let love grow
let it bloom
let it expand, multiply,
and thrive.
you receive what you give.
so give a lot.
please, fan the flames
that burn the brightest.
you can be incredible
you can give and receive love.
but only if you let yourself.
prove that you can do and become
anything.
you can thrive in your own
asperations,
but only if you are
willing to work for it.
to work for one thing,
love.

i drink tea in the shower
i listen to classical music
the water plays games
with my eyes
nose
my mouth
but my ears
they are consumed
with the sound of the piano
the violin the cello
don't be envious
you can have this too
i promise
