For you,
Young Queen
…
"Thank you for your sincerity and love
I write this thinking it sounds like something I could say to my future daughter
I’ve got a list of women in mind whenever I think of experiences I’ll pull from in the future for her
Looks like you’ve become one of them
Thank you for being the muse
and allowing me to be a part of your life."
…
Gifted,
in the way saviors grant miracles.
Although they are often tested,
they have always been critical.
Invested in not only their lives
but the futures of others as well.
Like a gardener,
they carefully planted these seeds
in the hopes that one day
they’d be able to grow and bask in the light.
These seeds were sown so that they might breathe life
and their gifted, tender hands provided the nourishment
that helped you blossom into the flower you are today
A Rose
Sun-Kissed
her only wish?
That the sun may shine longer
on these painful days when we forget
the majesty of her rays
Gleaming hope onto those who might need the light today
Little does she know,
her heart is something special like a prism
able to reflect those rays that she’s collected
and share a little light with others.
Radiant outside and in
I just pray that she loves her skin
although the world may try to convince her otherwise.
I hope that when she looks in the mirror
she admires her little features,
just as much as the ones that others may compliment
From the curls of her hair
to the shape of her nose,
the glimmer of her brown eyes,
to her cute little cheeks.
I hope she sees how special she is
As much as she loves to give her heart to others
I hope she remembers to keep just a little more of it to herself
because just as the weather can be severe and harsh on our crops
this world can be not only harmful
but dangerous to us
and although that is the case
I hope she never forgets
that we are built for this.
like the rose from the concrete
we exist as a reminder
that anything is possible
and to never doubt our resilience or ability.
In the end,
I hope that you look back at this and remember to believe in yourself
because I BELIEVE IN YOU.
