Letting go is an art

I literally forgot why I even existed,
why I bothered loving this cruel world,
made reasons to live despite the struggles,
and fell in love with someone whom I can't ever have.

Pieces of me left in the streams of tears.
No longer be able to find them, I cried.
Then I saw a pan with small pieces of gold.
I started to collect gold until my tears faded away.

I melted the pieces of gold and shaped them
To cover the missing pieces of me.
I then looked at my reflection in the stream.
I am broken but more beautiful than ever with shimmers of gold.

A cat's paw on top of my chest,
Is a gentle reminder of love and rest.
Kneading paws on my heart.
Knowing we'll never part.

A cat's paw on top of my chest
Gives me reason not to stand up.
I won't move till they wake up.
They are reasting in their nest.

A cat's paw on top of my chest,
A bond that will last for years.
Until one of us eternally rest.
Having you calms my fears.
Two of my cats love to sleep on top of me.

I listen to the same songs
The same playlists
The same sounds
The same feelings
On repeat over
And over again

I dipped my fingers into the ocean sweet,
As the ripples washed my sandy feet
A wave splashed about into a playful mist
That brushed my cheeks and salts my lips
The fresh, crisp air fills my joyous lungs,  
My skin lightly wrapped in golden sun,
I watch dolphins chase boats all day long,
As they guess where next - the fish fly from.  
The esplanade emanates the waft of chips.
Parents treat their loving children with.
Each step more satisfying than a fizzing drink
A sunset divine, with a spectral light.
A privilege to experience this beautiful life.

"Give me the strength to live one day,
as if it summarized the entirety of my life".
To love, to give, to build, to be proud, to be awed, to be humbled, to be grateful, to be thrilled, to be terrified, to be courageous, to be silent,  to be LOUD, to be unapologetic, to be myself.
All I know
Is how
I feel

And sometimes I
Wish I
Knew nothing

The way you glance at me and smile above your coffee cup.

I feel your love, and smile back.
