Today I am grateful for:
- Ghosting
- Knowing what's good for you
- End of the people pleaser culture
- Standing up for myself
- Saying no
- Establishing boundaries
- Speaking up for myself
Feeling things out slower than slow
Rhythm and music
Please don’t let me go
Deeper and deeper and deeper we go
Hold onto my skin and pull yourself in
Discover where I begin and see where I end
Tell me again if your head starts to spin
Ask me again and over we'll begin
Deeper and deeper and deeper we go
Marking out rhythms
Writing go get ‘ems
Spinning ideas
Watering our thoughts like Sophia shaped chias
Building more future than they do in IKEA
You break down my limiting beliefs like a 2004 kia
I know that I’m loved
I know that I’m liked
I know that you do want to take a bite
I know that I’m capable
I know I’m enough
You take what I ask for and tell me not to bluff
I know I drive you crazy
I know I drive you wild
I find if I keep digging I'll uncover my inner child
You help me find balance
You help me find grace
You pick up my heart and take me to outer space
Oh god am I falling?
Could it be true?
Is it so easy to fall into you?
To know I’ll be caught
To know I’ll be held
To know I don’t need to be saved by some bell
To know that there’s someone to get me though hell
And actually all is well
Actually all is well
Actually all is well
And if my love was a product it really would sell
And its up to me to respect my time
To take care of my dime
To know I am supported
To know I am secure
To know I don’t need to live in a blur
And if god were the moon I could listen to her
And learn to take care of my power
And start to take care of my truth by the hour
There is so much I’m learning and so much I'm feeling
So, thank you, thank you, for all that I'm earning
You for your eyes
You for the way you hug me goodbye
You for your leg
You for your thighs
You for the faces I want to memorize
You for your wisdom
You for your truth
You for that time in the photo booth
You for the kitchen
You for the crocs
You for making me feel like there are no clocks
You for your kisses
You for your highs
You for the way you make me sigh
You for the cuddles
You for the sand
You for the way you sink into my hands
You for the shimmy
You for the rest
You for always making me feel my best
You for the jokes
You for the laughs
You for that one pair of pants
You for the hiddles
You for the batch
You for thinking I’m a nice catch
You for the sunshine
You for the rain
You even though you drove me insane
You for the remix
You for the prom
You because I really miss your mom
You for the photos
You for the cats
You because you still have my hat
You for the tickles
You for the touch
You because you don’t ask for very much
You for my problems
You for my cane
You for tell me you love me again
You for the tension
You for the gain
You for the water still in my lane
You for the playtime
You for the sax
You for your strength like Ajax
So many options
No need to choose
Because I still want you, you, and you
Like Sundays without the y’s
Like lawyers without the lies
Like farewell parties without goodbyes
Like babies without the cries
Like lilies without the white
Like hold me and tuck me in and kiss me goodnight
Like untie my fingers and melt into my light
Like get over here and come take a bite
Like holding onto you with all of my might
Like trying to defy gravity
Like how is it I'm so happy
So brand new you'd think you were made in japan
I’ll to take you to new unforgettable land
Oops, did I open the door marked romance?
A second glance
A happenstance
How did my glasses get so askance?
Guess I’ll give it another chance
And yes, I'll happily take that dance
And when you told me to come close, I knew I would miss you
My yoga teacher says your issues lie beneath your tissues,
but you got me untied like a new pair of tennis shoes
and I keep wondering if I’m getting too close to you,
but everything you’re giving me is making me feel like dreams do come true,
so I’ll just let it be and melt deeper into you.
