i was born with a heart too big to fit inside my chest and a soul bigger than my body so i have chosen to leave pieces of my heart in the places my feet have known in the people i have loved in the words i have read in the beauty my eyes have seen and my soul- i have scattered it like seeds and i have left parts of it in songs, in poetry, in the laughter of children, in the arms that have held me and the hearts that have loved me
