let it be a growing season, of change… of turning… of shedding…

this is a growing season, of change, of turning, of shedding

In October…

let it be a growing season,
of change… of turning… of shedding,
of letting things fall away and fall apart,
and come undone and be uncovered…
let a new version of you
be discovered

this is a growing season, of change, of turning, of shedding

this is a growing season,
of change, of turning, of shedding,
of letting things fall away,
and fall apart, and come undone,
and be uncovered

and then a space of surrender,
and being, just being.

and the reflections here are temporary,
so take them in and honor them,
and be honest with them, and own them…
but then forgive them,
and don’t stay in them

let it all go… let yourself bloom

self-sovereignty…

become a more beautiful, whole, confident version of you

don’t look for your
peace in getting back at them,
or trying to make them see your worth
and what they lost in you…

go more into yourself.
become a more beautiful, whole,
confident version of you…
one that doesn’t need anything
from them to feel free.

the exhale… i stood there in front of you…

all of it made sense now, and none of it mattered anymore.

the exhale…

i stood there
in front of you,
and i thought of everything
that had ever broken me,
i thought of everything
that had ever shattered my heart,
and in that moment when i looked at you,
i thought of how maybe i’ll tell you someday.
but for now, i just exhaled.

because all of it made sense now,
and none of it mattered
anymore.
