i keep

and feeling,
and loving too much,
but isn’t feeling it all
existence

there is this stunning breathing rhythm in a woman learning to love herself…

there is this stunning breathing rhythm in a woman learning to love herself

there is this
stunning breathing rhythm
in a woman learning to love herself

this slow rise as she feels her way into
every inch of her skin like honey,
and this soft fall as she settles into grace

this is the breath i seek

the nashville skyline…

staring out at the nashville skyline, and wondering where you are

this is
aching… and
this is hope.
staring out at the
nashville skyline,
and wondering
where you are,
and if your skyline is just
as beautiful,
and does it hold all these
promises of us too

on your own is where your wildflowers grow, there’s no one else here to block their sun, but no one else can water them but you

wildflowers grow,
there’s no one else here to
block their sun,
but no one else can water
them but you
