little lion: Favorites

I am the sun
in my eye,

seeing bright smiles
of beautiful people:

solar flair of hope,
wide spread in an instance:

a reflection of light,
from the great above;

A moon child.

aftermath

going home isn’t always
returning to a place.
sometimes
it is returning to yourself.

i spend my days
pouring myself into the cups of others

only to find that
when it’s time for myself
to take a sip

all that’s left
in my cup
is the remainder of a girl
who gave too much

self care is extremely important. most days I fight my depression by putting smiles onto others faces, but forgetting about my once bright smile.
