i miss what it feels like to believe in sunrises…

i miss what it feels like to believe in sunrises. to wake up feeling like... today will be good

i miss what it
feels like to believe in sunrises.
to wake up feeling like… today will be good,
beautiful things will happen,
and nothing will hurt.
but the world just keeps breaking
my heart again and again
and again.

whenever i see someone talking about how small & controllable women need to be if they want to be loved

whenever i see someone talking about how small & controllable women need to be if they want to be loved, it just makes me want to write more poetry about how bright we get to be and be loved.

current mood… leaning into the feminine energy in my life…

current mood… leaning into the feminine energy in my life, within myself, in my soul, in my connections

current mood…
leaning into the feminine energy in my life,
within myself, in my soul, in my connections
with women & girls… my friendships.
and in nature… the way it’s in the flowers,
but also in the moon,
just anywhere i can feel it…
it’s where things are beautiful and soft,
but it’s where i’m protected, too.

what if you are on the verge of the most beautiful year…

what if you are on the verge of the most beautiful year

what if you are on the
verge of the most beautiful year…

dare the universe to show you how
beautiful it can get…
let things unfold, and let them be easy.
let there be dreams, and let them be real.
let it all grow. then let yourself trust it
and hold it… know that it’s yours,
and let it all stay.

they say you are gone. but i still feel you…

they say you are gone. but i still feel you… in signs and serendipities

they say you are gone.
but i still feel you… in signs and serendipities,
you are imprinted in song lyrics and visiting me
through butterflies… i am trying to understand the
texture of this world without you because they say
that you are gone, but i still feel you in energy,
and i’m sure that you’re still with me.

maybe it’s not such a bad thing… having to go through someone’s walls…

maybe it's not such a bad thing... having to go through someone's walls

maybe it’s not such a bad thing… having to go through someone’s walls. like… because once you get through, you know it’s because they really want you there. and that space isn’t for just anyone… no one else could be there but you.
