A shoulder, the one you cry into
A hand, the one you hold
A knee, the one you lean on
A spine, the one that makes you strong
A smile, the lips you kiss
A voice, the one you miss
A soul, the kind that goes to heaven above
A heart, the one that heals and makes you feel loved
Everybody who saw her fell in love with her soul
She was so young yet her words so old
She contemplated life and after and people and the world
If you heard her speak she had a quick wit
You felt like a better person being around her
You felt like you learned something important
She fell in love with everybody who had a beautiful soul
But she falls too hard far too quickly
And she is blind to other's view of her
Maybe if someone would have told her she wouldn't have left so soon

You have a heart made of beautiful gold
and a soul of stardust that'll never grow old.
There are sweet galaxies within your eyes
and your scars are constellations better than the sky's.
You're a walking universe so wonderful and sublime;
someone who'll remain important across all space and time.

people may scoff at your interests,
tell you it's a stupid,
waste of time.

you're not popular;
the popular kids play those games
those games you're not interested in.

but it doesn't matter
your interest makes you happy

it saved your life,
when you felt like falling into the pit of depression,
it was there,
almost lovingly.

they made their comeback,
and now it's time
for you to make yours.

and if you fall,
it'll always be there to save you,
like it always had.

because nothing is more important,
than your happiness.
I've been gone for 5 months; I'm sorry.
Isn't there something that you enjoy, but no one else appreciates? They laugh, tell you it's a waste of time, and tell you to play their game of lies instead.
But don't listen to them; if that thing makes you happy, stick with it.
Nothing is more important than your happiness.

Just remember that
Although you may feel insignificant
So do the stars
But look at how together
Those scattered moondusts
Light up the night sky
So beautifully

such a forgetful person that I am
forgetting important things
I never forget about you though
but I just forget that you never care

I've realized
I've always
been everyone's
second choice

once their
number one
leaves, they
start putting
me first.

actually, sometimes
I'm not
even a
second choice

I'm the
last resort.

but for once
I was the
first choice without
being a second
one at all.

Thank you.
Thank you
for making
me feel
important.

You are so important.
You are the concrete built to keep cars from traipsing off highways.
You are the talking down of man when jumping off bridge becomes salvation.
You are the last kiss in hospital rooms
You are the goodbye in airports.
You are exit wounds that go straight through,
You would never lodge yourself somewhere unwanted.
You are the sun after a night almost decisioned as last.
You are the mantra I repeat every morning feeding me to love myself.
You are the reason that today will not fall to the right of the dash sign on gravestone.
You are diaries filled with prayers to God
that I was too scared to voice for fear that he would not recognize me.
You are every foot forward when I was scared my blackness was too big to enter into classroom conversations.
You are wild eyes when everyone is too in trend to take off their cool.
You are naked heart when cold has caused frost bite of these  hands.
Body yearning to be touched but too scared to be honest.
You are the silent
"You are here"
when depression floods me with "you are nothing"
You are the
"This will pass"
when anxieties infiltrate my home without knocking.
You are the silent "I am here"
When I grow tired
with hurt from people
I would lie down what ever blessings God has on back order for me.
You are not the absence of fear but the courage of being scared and to keep moving anyways.
You are hello's too long overdue
from girl too often overlooked.
You are the seeing of Queen over seductress.
You are the man, not loyal to being loyal but, fiercely protecting what is human,
what is steady,
what foundations you have built upon.
You are the calm found in chaos by girl too enthralled by rain to run inside.
You are secrets whispered to the moon
with the ulterior motive of being heard by the stars.
You are everything.
You are so important.


-Indigo Morrison
I never deemed myself as someone important, never thought of myself as someone worthy of acknowledgement from the world. I knew I wasn't the brightest star or the prettiest sky. I always thought of myself as the one hidden beneah the clouds. It was I who was always a shadow, a beautiful darkness that not everyone will come to know. There was nothing that amazing about me to those who couldn't truly see me, and yet I still manage to take comfort that only those who are perceptive and worthy enough will be able to see the true beauty that shines from within myself. It's exhilarating to know that I was found from the people who actually saw me as who I am, and not just the fabrication of the brightness shining from the moon, hiding its very, lonely dark side.

The present moment in time belongs to you.
You have got it’s ownership, utilize it to the best of your ability.

If there is something that is much more important,
even more than the topmost priority on the list of priorities,
then that something is in the present moment of time.

If this means even if you have to take the right direction, start with the present moment of time.

Moment by moment each moment in time passes by when a search is made for one perfect moment in time.

It’s all in the present
Everything belongs to the present
Memories when they get recalled,
it’s the past that gets revealed in the present.
When time is spent in ascertaining the future,
it’s the future that belongs to the present.
It's all in the present.

All said and done,
all in all,
it’s all in the present.
Everything belongs to the present.

A conscious mind not only knows the person inside very well, but looks at the outside world in much more detail.

Hence it’s always important to keep in mind,
all you have got to deal with is the present,
much more importantly,
the present moment in time is very important.

So just stop worrying about the future,
live in the present,
definitely at some point in time in present life will smile upon you.
