A Psalm for Us

“write about love. write about new life.
write about better days. write about how,
if there’s a will, there will always be

“people crave beautiful things,
people crave beautiful beings,
and that’s why people crave you

we have to believe in ourselves. we have to love our entire journey. even the tragedies. we have to let things come and pass the way they are supposed to. we have to let go of the past in order to elevate. to move forward. we all have to recognize where in our lives we are the most toxic to ourselves and find a way to plant something infinite there.

someone once told me, “nothing deserves an everyday funeral.” so with time i’ve realized we all learn in our own timing. we all let go when we’re meant to.

i’m still learning how to become “one” with myself. i’m still learning how to stand alone. i’m still learning how to be reasonably comfortable in the thick of silence. i’m trying to find the peace amongst the voices, in my head, that often distract me. i’m trying to find myself.

we have to let go of the past in order to elevate. to move forward. we all have to recognize where in our lives we are the most toxic to ourselves and find a way to plant something infinite there.

“people crave beautiful things,
people crave beautiful beings,
and that’s why people crave you.”

peace amongst the voices, in my head, that often distract me.

i caught myself being a lot more afraid. a lot more frightened to open up. a lot more frightened to be vulnerable. a lot more cautious of hurting people

learn about all the things that fulfill me and everything that, mostly, leaves me empty
