I Carry You With Me

I carry your heart in my heart
Your words linger in my soul
Our shared moments tucked
Away neatly in the folds of my
Very essence. Very being.
Knowing you
Feeling you
Loving you
Breathing you
Sharing time and tales with you
Has changed me
Inspired me
Made me grow
Helped me thrive
I carry you with me
Always and forever

The Side You Show

Don't show me the side you want me to see. Don't play the version you think you should be. Just honor yourself and be who you are. Flawed and broken; my shining star.

Lingering

Lingering in the forefront of my mind
Tucked in the sleeve of my soul
Pulsing through my hot veins
In each heartbeat and foot step
Each deep breath and misstep
Every tear drop and lip curl
Hair twirl, side glance and smirk
Is a piece of you I carry with me
Forever present in all I do
I vow to keep and carry you

For all those in my life I've lost
You are with me. Always. Always.

Dreamlike State

In a dreamlike state, I wonder and wait
Stir in my mind, sit and debate
Lovely sounds and voices are near
Works spoken and fallen hang in my ear
Strongly present as if a true vision
Real or not is the hardest decision

This very...

I live and love fully today. I wish I could say I feel this alive and awake everyday; but that is not the case. Days like today are the majority though, which is more important. This very moment is perfect. A culmination of trials, tribulations and triumphs. How very beautiful a web of intricate circumstances. Colors, scents and memories of many sorts. Just beautiful. Lovely. Broken, mended and brand new pieces. A unique day. This very day...

Following Your Dreams

It's not always the easiest thing
To listen to the voice in your head
The one that wants and wishes
Dreams big, thinks large and
Wants for things beyond now

It's so much easier to stay put
In your current shoes
Same car, same house, same job
Listen to your family and friends
That tell you change is hard
That its' scary and you might fail

To follow your dreams
Follow your inner light
Your strongest desire
Will yield such great joy
Even watching someone
Follow theirs, is thrilling.
Intoxicating, even

For you never really fail
If you give it your all
You may not succeed at
The goal you had in mind
But the Universe will gift you
Great happiness, serenity, joy
If you follow your dreams
Passionately, humbly and purely
Honestly, lovingly and steadily

Follow on, my friends. Follow on!
