Gratitude
I’m grateful for everything for the light and dark and many shades in between. for everything I’ve lost and found again. everything I lost and learned to live without.

How to love a woman (3/3)
if you’re going to love me
you need to understand
that I love me,
and I love me too much
to watch myself suffer.

when you hurt

if it’s too heavy for you alone.
How to love a woman (1/3)
will you love the parts of me that I find hard to love?
I want you to be mesmerized by my strength,
dazzled by my mind,
hypnotized by my movement
The Present 3/3
I live for the hardships and nerves,
pushes and plans and small victories
everything is happening
in its perfect, perfect way
The Present 1/3

and the future is arriving
not in dreams or hopes
but the divine details
before your eyes
Maybe
more than skewed and odd pieces
haphazardly arranged
trying to fit together
trying to make sense
Notes
Your greatest strength is A peaceful mind, Energized body And joy in what you do. Never compromise those things. Some days Are easier than others. Enjoy each one And don’t forget the other.
Decomposition
Revelations, realizations
plans and dreams
messily thrown across
the stained and crumbling pages
