we rise, we fly…

we rise we thrive and we fly

we may have
these fragile hearts,
and when we crumble,
ever do we crumble,
but unlike those who break us…

we heal
we grow
we become full
we rise
we thrive
and we fly

if i could help every woman feel beautiful, and teach every little girl…

if i could help every woman feel beautiful, and teach every little girl how to love herself, that would be my superpower

if i could help
every woman feel beautiful,
and teach every little girl how to love herself,
that would be my superpower.

directions…

a southern girl with a gypsy soul

Directions…

a southern girl
with a gypsy soul, she took
a journey west to help her grow,
and then she chased the eastern sun
to give her faith,
and she let the northern lights
guide her way
…home.

i’m just too in love with love for anything less…

feel my infinity in the beating of your chest

i’m just
too in love with love
for anything less
than that heart racing,
soul craving,
lose my breath,
and feel my infinity
in the beating of your chest
kind of love

desperate…

anything beautiful that can't be crushed by something cruel

so achingly
desperate to believe
in myself, in life,
and in anything beautiful that can’t
be crushed by something cruel
