something more…

but this… this is something more,
it’s some sort of holy thing, a sacred thing
…this love.

Moonglow…

where the light falls
and the beautiful stays
when the stars settle in…
come with me.

– butterflies rising

when i look at you,
the way all my senses shift,
the way my soul sways…
it’s how i know.

– butterflies rising

and your heart was placed inside with all your magic buried in it

the universe
burst stars open
and let the pieces fall
and they settled into a shape
and it was given your name
and your heart was placed inside
with all your magic buried in it
with moondust on the edges
and all your flowers planted with it
and this is you…
this is all inside of you.
so how could anyone ever look at you
and not be breathtakingly fascinated
by the wonder of it all…
it’s in the way your perfect atoms
find themselves falling into place as the
beautiful universe that you are.

my soul just wants to be closer to yours

– butterflies rising

you have
imprinted on me,
leaving traces of you here,
leaving light in my pathways,
it has shifted my soul,
and this life won’t be the same…

i will not be the same

– butterflies rising

i want to drip myself
in wild creativity and glow

– butterflies rising

i want…
to search. and stretch.
and grow. and glow.
and drip myself in
wild creativity,
and burn and breathe at once
in this skin. in these lungs.
wings untethered,
under the moon,
into the sky,
and to dream big and bigger
and biggest,
and to feel free in here…
inside my anxious chest.
to just. feel. free.
and to have the universe
say… yes, you are worthy of all this.
