Autumn Love

There are just some feelings
That I forever wish to hide
Inside a magic bottle
For all of space and time… -t.r.p.

My Mind is a…

Her mind was a dangerous place to be,
At least it could be,
She’d climb up in it
And sit for hours
Among the clutter and the breeze,
Her view,
Much more than the eye could see.
Some days the wind blew hard
against the walls,
And she thought for sure
It would all come down.
Other days
it seemed like her only bit of safety,
Where she’d sit
among her little treasures and the trees,
And she could be whatever she wanted to be
In her rocket ship castle pirate ship…
She wasn’t good at letting people in there,
But she never met to hide the entrance,
She just kept it quiet,
And few ever really asked,
But the ones who did
Could some days find the secret word,
That even she didn’t know where she hid,
And she could share a piece of her, in her magic, little, mixed up world, of sometimes nightmares, but mostly beautiful possibilities.

Nothing profound…

Just a beautiful thought for a beautiful person…

Just a little reminder…

I don’t know who all needs to hear this today,

but I want you to know that you don’t have to accomplish everything,

it isn’t your job to be everything for everyone,

you aren’t responsible for the happiness of others,

and your worth isn’t in how much you do or don’t do with your day,

your week,

your month,

or even this year,

everyone is feeling stranded,

lost,

and like their entire world is upside down,

stop comparing your world to that of someone else’s,

because I promise theirs is just as messed up as yours,

even if you can’t see it.

You are loved,

you are seen,

you’ve got this,

because someone a lot bigger than you is in control.

So embrace the chaos,

embrace the unknowns,

keep walking,

and breathing,

till you find where you’re going.

-t.r.p.

Just Wait…

I can’t believe how long it’s been since I’ve sat down to write, I mean really write…Normally writing is a way of surviving life for me, but recently it has been what has suffered since the craziness of life has swept me away.
