  • Best friend

    Your new-ish house

    your dog sleeping on the rug

    my family and your family chatting comfortably

    your kitchen with your hot chocolate

    the fun spinny stools at the kitchen island

    that's one of my happy places

  • Acceptance

    When we see flaws in ourselves

    we withdraw from society

    curl in on ourselves

    trying to hide from our insecurities.

    The thing is

    people struggle to understand

    that their faults are a part of themselves
