Somewhere along the journey
He grew tired of
Explaining to
People why they should pick him,
Why he was good enough.
And everyone fell away
Except the ones who were meant to stay;
Love.

Just Words
I learned a long time ago I am my own validation.
Only I know what is happening to me
And only I know
How I feel,
That this is my reality.
The rest is just words
And I am choosing to save my breath for
Breathing and laughing rather than explaining.

Explain
There is such peace
And freedom
In releasing the need to explain and define
Yourself to others.
If they do not see you
Then they are not ready for your magic,
(Just as you may not see them)
And that is okay.
Just keep standing tall
And love all.

She Sees Herself
No one has really ever known her.
Seen her.
It is because she seldom speaks up.
She is so tired of
Trying to be heard above the noise.
She does not share her stories anymore
So others just see her smile.
They feel her hugs.
They think she is the quiet girl,
The frail one
Because she is kind.
She is learning that she does not have to explain to anyone.
She used to try but her lips stop her now.
And her heart.
Someday she will meet someone who truly sees her.
Until then she sees herself and that is enough.
