damp concrete sidewalks
dewy grass
dim streetlights
dark nights
it's oddly comforting

Mesmerized by your beauty
I am forever yours truly

they aren't dinners at the ritz
or diamonds on a timepiece

they are those evenings where one sits
and admires the beauty that is to live
where the damp summer breeze
caresses the skin
and ruffles the hair
where the birds vocalize the harmonies of the forest
where the waves tell the stories of the sea
where the lightning puts on a show for us all

the finer things of life.

Stop wishing to be normal, there's no such thing.
Instead, find your voice,
find where you stand in this world
hold your ground,
go after what you want.
And don't go out without a fight because you are worth fighting for.
