You’ve breathed life into the darkest passages, illuminating every part of your world. Words slip from your lips in a symphony that lulls listeners into a euphoric state. Art is the passion that’s kept you safe during the lowest points of your life. Through paint and text, you’ve released tension and created a universe of healing. You express all that you desire to receive, comforting the injured in the way that you needed for so long. Amanda, a force that expunges all your inner doubts, a support system that is unwavering no matter the circumstances. Loyal and determined, you have fought tooth and nail for everyone you love. Forgiveness is something many of us have yet to learn, but you have proceeded to encourage a forgiving nature amongst those who’ve caused you the most harm. Your words cut like a knife, there is more to you than love. A storm boils within you and you are merciless to liars and thieves. I have seen you build castles and destroy empires in your fury. In all of your glory, you are a flawed creature that is worthy of being loved. Learn to love yourself above all else.
