Friday feels ni Tita
GOALS:
to know the difference
between tying my laces
and tuning the string section
of my shoes, to make a symphony
of walking away from anything
that does not want my life to sing
β¦
to have a heart like a parachute
that always opens in time
β¦
to never strive to have
common sense. to know, really
know, how many senses
I would have to shut down
for my sense to be common.
β¦
to celebrate being a human scribble.
to celebrate having too many feelings
to fit inside the lines of my own skin
and to know THAT is the masterpiece.
β¦
to never believe I need rose-colored glasses
to see the beauty of this world. to refuse
to ignore the thornβs loving heart.
β¦
to remember how possible it is
to cry and sing at the top of my lungs
at the exact same time
β¦
to always be awed by the universe.
to have a goosebump collection
that could be its own meteor shower
β¦
to pay attention
to the bees who fall asleep
in flowers while gathering nectar
β¦
to never have my capacity
to love someone be impacted
by how capable they are
of loving me
β¦
to understand how often
darkness lights the way
