the muse…

…all of these feelings just keep
becoming poems about you

– butterflies rising

exit gracefully.
heal and grow.
don’t look back.

– butterflies rising

exit gracefully.
heal and grow.
don’t look back.

– butterflies rising

“she’s not coming back.”

a 4-word story for the boy
who mistakenly thought she’d never
realize her worth and walk away

– butterflies rising

“i’m not coming back.”

a 4-word story for the one who
mistakenly thought i’d never realize
my worth and walk away

– butterflies rising

…i can get a little reckless
when my heart is restless

– butterflies rising

and maybe,
sometimes i back up
just a little,
just to breathe…
to steady in me.
and maybe, sometimes,
my fingers will untangle
just a little,
just to feel…
how to be mine, all mine.
and maybe,
i can get a little reckless
when my heart is restless,
but it’s still always yours,
all yours.
