JUST TRY

I said over and over how holding hands would soothe me.

Instead some pass by pretending they never knew me.

I keep love alive within me regardless of how careless some pretend to be.

In the end I am very much in love with me.

It will spillover for all else to see.

It is surely possible to be your whole self.

Not letting anyone or anything eat away at your being.

In my fullness, the ever winding balance of grief and joy...

I embrace those around me so much more tightly than before.

I hope to not ever walk out of a single door so effortlessly slamming it behind me.

Every face I have seen is a lesson in self.

I feel at ease in my thoughts that I simply could not have done more.

In fact I did the most.
