I wish I could show you when you are lonely or in darkness,
the astonishing light of your own being.
~Hafiz of Persia


spent
empty
fearful
unsure why..
you dont care about the "why"
you never have

you dont take pity on me
you say what needs to be said
what i need to hear
grab my hand
lift my heart
gently cradle it
and
remind me of the truth
and even when
the lessons
are tough
life is so beautiful

you love with out resistance
and care unyielding
regardless of how messy
my head and heart get

because of you
my tank is filling
i am emerging
and doing my best not
be hospitable to fear
to let go of the
perfectly hypothetical
what if's

i am reminded that
i am
the illustrator
and
author
of my story


thank you
for taking the time
investing the energy
for knowing me
knowing my heart
seeing past the surface
to the deepest parts
♥ & soul
and loving me anyway

you are my forever friend
i am honored beyond words
to have you in my life
