a soft spirit in a hard world…

a soft spirit
in a hard world.

we are
not halves of
each other,
we come here to
love the whole of
one another

the person you are meant
to be with will be fascinated by you…

completely and breathtakingly
fascinated by you.

– butterflies rising

you are beauty…
it radiates from the depths of your soul
to the tips of your toes

– butterflies rising

i am safe.
i am worthy.
i am loved.

– butterflies rising

show me
all your wildfires…
i want to know your wildfires

present.
patient.
peaceful.

– butterflies rising

help me trust that
there’s a beautiful purpose
in this broken heart

– butterflies rising

i hope
you never
let the ones
who are
sleepwalking
hold you back
in your
own awakening

Journey Companions…

please let
everyone on my journey
be kind and good to my heart and soul,
and please let anyone who isn’t
easily pass through.

– butterflies rising

what is
beautiful in me
and what is tender
in me

it is always.

no matter how
hard you tried to make
me feel hard to love

there are
all these beautiful
and tender things in me…
always.
