7-15-16 Just A Short Reminder

 •just a short reminder• 

Fill your mind with facts instead of opinions

Wear makeup because you want to not because you have to

Cover your body because you respect yourself not because you're insecure 

Twist and turn on roller coasters 

Jump and flip on trampolines 

Dip and dive in pools and lakes

Climb every kind of tree 

Collect sea shells from every ocean

Don't be afraid to get your clothes dirty 

You can always buy a new dress

But you can't buy opportunities 

Look for shapes in the clouds 

Memorize your lovers face 

Write letters 

Sing a new song 

You're beautiful when you're you

I really will never know  no cymbals no shells but i know the feeling of this drum  it doesn’t stop until the song ends  and it’s only the beginning

3-10-23 Despite It All

 i’m wrapped up  and here I am living despite the suffocation  I don’t deserve this  and here I am being loved despite the hardness of my heart  I forget how to walk  and here I am walking on the waters before me and ground that shakes  I’ve turned away  and here you are standing before me /despite it all/
