just // 9:41 pm
just be yourself
no one expects anything more or less
(and fact is, they shouldn't)
but
sometimes, you're not enough to everyone
you're spread thin, he says
it's like butter on toast, it's never enough
Don't forget this please, because you can be better and more.
priorities, girl
when you're scared and alone
just know that I'm already home

to face your monsters // 6:49 am
those dreams where you venture deep into the dark where you know your most terrible parts and the darkest things the nasty and the most grotesque
shakes you
(you are forced to acknowledge those parts of you are real too)
and then there is a painter who holds your hand
and teaches you how to write poetry with your mind
and his hand and yours make a poem that's not very poignant
the poem paints pictures of the rain and the water and the leaves and the sun
but it was mostly just about ungratefulness
so you should face things you fear most and the lessons they teach you in your dreams
but the painter's warm hands still linger through the day
but there is sun and water and work to be see and done and felt
and that is the real
and hopefully you can shake off the bad
(even though you know it's all still there)
