What will it look like?

To choose palm trees
Ocean water
Hot sandy beaches
Vapor wave inside me
And right beside the sea.

What will it look like?
To let my hair continue to grow
Strong and long
To finish inking my arm
To sit in my power.

What will it look like?
To fly out to the next place
To start anew
To kick up holographic dust.

What will it look like?
To keep seeing and seeing
What I want and deserve.

What will it look like?
To just go for it all.

What will it look like?
To truly release myself from the grip
I've created within myself.

What will it look like?
To let myself no matter how hard things get
To have such a strong ground and soft core
And to flourish
Despite all obstacles.

What will it look like?
To let people who didn't choose to stay go
Remembering you did the best you could
And that who you are will not always
Play well with others
And that your own ego tries to convince you otherwise
But you wouldn't want to be for everyone
No, never darling.

What will it look like?
To sleep at a decent hour
To consume coffee in the daylight outdoors
To be surrounded by a holographic buzz
To stop apologizing for greatness, ambition
And allow just really
Truly allow
Myself to stand into and within the earth of the desert
With ease
With abandon

With gratitude.
