I want to give you something.
So badly it hurts.
I wish I could tell you that the world is at your feet.
But you have to take the plunge.
You have to see it and seize it.
You have to be willing to be unsafe.
I wish I could give you my heart- not just because you already have it but because
You need its resilience, its unwavering hope, its blind courage.
Maybe with my heart in your hands you will have the strength to walk away from this gray, quiet life and spread your beautiful soul out upon the ground,
And grow.
And bloom.
And shatter this sky into colors with no names-
Colors I've seen swim in your eyes with the tears and the longing,
Colors I've felt slip from your fingertips and live in my skin when you touched it.
Oh, I want to give you my hope for you, and my faith that you will be
Incredible.
