i think
it’s been his soul
passing through the others…
leaving traces of him,
of these memories we’ve yet to live,
leaving breadcrumbs to him
in the ones who were
just lessons,
it’s been breadcrumbs to home…
all of it guiding me as i grow.

those flowers in your chest,

i’ve never needed
for a dress or a ring,
but a hand held,
a promise kept,
a heartbeat felt,
a soul seen…
those are the things of
my everything

freedom of religion
honors your freedom to your religion,
but it also honors…
the freedom from your religion,
and the freedom of other religions,
the freedom of spirituality that isn’t
found through or bound by religion,
and the freedom from any religion at all.
it’s the freedom to believe what
resonates as truth for you and brings
peace to your soul.

at flowers… like she’s just this beautiful

music is my gospel,
empathy and kindness are my witness,
creativity and love are my worship

i think it’s a good thing,
how we can search desperately to
find reasons for how cruel people can
be to others, and still never find any
understanding of it…
it means we’re just not capable of the
same cruelty within ourselves… and i think
that’s a really good thing.
