heavy & overwhelmed heart flowing of words.

We're all in need of healing & redemption. Be still, there is a healing.

Set aside religion, church, business, etc. Tonight was nothing of that. Tonight what was I have been longing for. What stirs my heart. Tonight was strictly nothing but LOVE.

Gathering of friends, family, & new people. Different people & different ages, all coming together to share one common longing in everyone's heart. We're all in need of healing. All of us. Coming together in prayer not even informed of what's going on in someones life or their struggles but seeing a group of people being able to come together in peace... THAT MOVES ME.
It moves me to my core.
The simplicity of a hug. It's all around. They don't even realize the impact of their hand on my shoulder. An underlying matter.
It's reassuring. To remember that there is goodness left in this beautifully broken world.
It's not about putting your faith in the hands of your peers. Placing your faith in the hands of God, for he knows all. He knows how to love. & that will shine through your love for others.
Do more than exist.

The walls of my heart are glass,
& its your breath steaming up the windows,
your fingers writing poetry on my organs strung with lights
you are tracing me, you are shaping me
every word you write sounds like love
every word you whisper rhymes with free.

She did it anyway,

The best thing I've ever been told, which was a few weeks ago: "set it free."
& it's never been easier till now.
How beautiful is that.
Also, pay attention to your heart. It carries your instincts. & those are smart.

Stop counting every little detail & analyzing it in every way possible so you know how much sorrow to bring with you the next day. Just go ahead & run around in circles chasing your tail.

I'm not ready. Lessons are still being learned. My favorite part is that I realize that.

"People are often unreasonable & self-centered.
forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives.
be kind anyway.
If you are honest, people might cheat you.
be honest anyway.
If you find happiness, people may be jealous.
be happy anyway. (& share it with them)
The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow.
do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have & it may never be enough.
give your best anyway."


Love the people around you.
:)


Set it free.

.

comfortable.

one thing i can tell you is you've got to be free.
all the details you can find only caught between the syllables & breaths.
i recognize the smell of your skin like a sailor knows the sea.
feelings that dig their roots into your skin, can no longer be hidden in your veins, it shines right through those eyes.
on the threshold of something so sweet.
you have a way of opening my heart to places i don't want to unfold but when you do there is nothing like it.
let love in.
is there ever a perfect time?
it feels like a million exclamation points in my heart & one big question mark constantly on my mind.
i have a sea of flames in my stomach and i want to believe in this, in me, in you the way your eyes set on fire when you look at me and remember why the world spins and atoms collide because of fate.
serendipity.

i've never heard silence scream so loudly.

the promise of a new beginning.
the one who always says goodbye but never knows how to leave.
do not let your soul perish in lonely frustration for the life you deserve and have never been able to reach. the world you desire can be won. it exists, it is real, it is possible, it is yours. touch the core of this world & make it smile.
you want to live in the now? this is our moment. we'll never step foot here again for this moment has already passed. & again. & again.
eat your words. there's ink on the corner of your mouth.
all we have is now.

wake up, the world needs your soul.
awake my soul.
we're all stories in the end.

I've never seen tables turn the way these tables have turned.
