beautiful stardust: when you love wildly, your heart can break so. intensely…

passionate pain is brutal pain... but it's powerful pain too.

beautiful stardust…

when you love wildly,
your heart can break so. intensely.
and passionate pain is brutal pain…
but it’s powerful pain too.

it stirs us in our soul places. and even when it
feels like it burns right through us and tears us apart,
it can be a catalyst if we let it.
we can pour it into things like music and art
and poetry… or turn it into growth and change
and inspiration and all these other beautiful things
that we can become and can spill
out into the world.

when you love intensely,
your heart can break so. intensely.so keep loving deep…
and keep your heart wilder than wild…
and breathe it all out as beautiful stardust.

a wild heart burning…

somewhere else out there is a wild heart burning

a wild heart burning…

you stay still
waiting for a cold heart to
warm towards you,
while somewhere else out there
is a wild heart burning,
so untamed, and so unafraid to light up
everything in you

i’m here… wanting to know the shape of you: the remix…

how do i take you in, but keep me too... how do i breathe love and wholeness all at once.

i’m here… wanting
to know the shape of you,
without having to lose my own,
but just not yet knowing how…

how do i take you in, but keep me too.

how do i breathe love
and wholeness all at once.

light up your own…

there is nothing about the way another woman unfolds into her own space that takes away from the way you can unfold into yours.

there is nothing about the way another woman unfolds into her own space that takes away from the way you can unfold into yours. you don’t need to try to dim any other woman’s brightness or put out any other woman’s fire; you only need to look inside and light up your own.
