Tu m’as montrée qui tu es La chose la plus généreuse que tu n’as jamais pu me donner Comme ça J’ai su que je n’avais aucun autre choix Autre que partir.

give me your heart ❤
Don’t call me pretty Don’t fall in love with the color of my eyes Don’t tell me I have nice hips Don’t compliment my hair I was never doubtful of anything but your sincerity Don’t tell me that you love me words give false hues to intentions Do show me all your shadows I’ll take shade in your candor Love my crooked teeth before my perfect lips Give me more than mirrors Don’t show me all your glory Don’t let my eyes make choices Don’t think I can’t work wonders Just know that I respect you Do show me how you suffer so I can strengthen for the burden Our souls are stronger than our vices Let me feel your love Do let your gaze forge valleys Know the color of my spirit Do tell me God is beautiful Do tell me I remind you Of something more than desire Do see me as a window and not a pretty picture.

Don't Call Me Pretty
I am free Free as a bee Free to be. Whoever I say Is me. I can be by myself I am strong. Stronger than the gust of wind trying to knock me down. Stronger than the comments of society that say I can't do it. Stronger than the fear within us all try to rip out our hearts and tear through us. Stronger than I ever needed to be, Because I wanted to be. I am content. Content with my life and the way I'm living it, which is probably different than yours. Content with my body so that when I walk by in the dress that I bought because it was on sale and cute as hell and you make comments, I smile and say it's great isn't it? Content with the family I have, and the friends I surround myself with. Content with the job I have, whether or not I have people who treat me like a dog because I'm a server. I'm content with my late night Netflix binges, and my early morning runs. I'm content with life. I'm mentally independent. Independent enough that I know at the end of the day I just need me. Independent enough to know that I can be there for myself. Independent enough that being there for others is a great joy and privilege. Independent enough that I can go eat at a restaurant alone. Independent enough that I can spend my own money on myself. I don't NEED anyone. If you're in my life, it's by choice. I WANT you there. So don't lose that privilege. I've gotten rid of people who didn't appreciate me and who left me out to dry. Don't think you're an exception. You wanna be in my life? Show me.

kikki obadoo bird in a kikii obabdoo tree just sitting there shooting the leaves, mocking all the trees all up in the air, no reason to run around town, and no reason to leave. I'm amazed at it's song. It has no burden or work to do. It does not toil or spin and yet is clothed in that finest cloak. happy happy happy, Like a second semester named sylvester the molester there is so much I could do. It's all a little fuzzy and I feel kinda dumb all of a sudden. I just think I know, which is silly. It's a good lesson in humility, but since I am not sufficient and you are please show me what it is in your word that I should know. That we should show ourselves. I love you God. I love you with all I am.
