Fly

Standard

I would lift you up

As high as i could

My love

But we both know 

You will only fall,

Return to it all,

Everything

You are running away from

Here on the ground

If you do not build up strength in your own way,

In your own time.

The might of

Your own wings must come about within

Your soul.

To get there

You have to fly yourself,

But

Not by yourself.

I am learning too.

We all are.

mind

Standard

her mind was quite broken you see.

for so long the road to healing has been most tedious.

she has had to learn to allow herself grace

and tenderness unapologetically

she has had to learn she does not need to justify this to

anyone

for even she was unaware that those wounds were too painful to touch

that even her skin was deeply bruised

with heart and mind

and this takes time

giving herself space to grow new strength

unspoken

and nurturing her own roots

and spirit

which ultimately remain

unbroken

love and tenderness for oneself grow freely when welcomed

and cared for unconditionally

Home

Standard

I’m throwing myself off this ledge

I’m going to do my best to fly

And if I crash

It’s nothing worse than I’ve already felt inside.

I’m going to get back up and climb to the top

Cuts and bruises on my hands

I’ll stand proud and strong and close my eyes

Not knowing where I’ll land.

Because I’ve let go of all my fear

I’ve found a strength I’ve never known

I thought I was going crazy

But I’m only heading home.
