For me

For me,

Life is a beautiful mess.

yes a mess can be beautiful,

like making cookies, flour on the tip of your daughter's nose. 

For me,

I try to look on the not messy side of things first.

because i know,

I will eventually get to the strings attached to them, I just need time to breathe. 

For me,

happiness doesn't come easy.

I had to fight like war,

but the more i fought the stronger life saw me.

For me,

I was put on this earth to show my power,

not with my power of fists,

but with my power of love. 

For me,

I will be happy.

  • Winters death

    She starts to lay her head to fire. I see has her voice dies, and her fingers start to thaw. Her yawn irks the birds sending them to rainbow spirals, directing them to the skies choir.
