I kept wishing on falling stars
Like they were genies
Waiting to grant me three wishes
When all I really needed
Was just the one
To be able to

Perpetually sleep.

You’re a whole person
All on your own
Much before they came along
And long after they’re gone.

I wish I could have
Captured the moment
Your silent words
Lay on my parted lips

If my truth
Ever stings
A little
Know that
Lying to you
Would kill me

Let’s hold each other
Like a key holds lyrics
In a rhythmic movement
Like the flowing river
Like the wind holds your sweet smell
Like we held our hearts
Before we found comfort
As they fit within
Our jagged edges

Do you think romantic relationships are all about maturity? I used to. I thought relationships are about growing up and giving up parts of yourself that make you childish. I thought, child like behaviour has to be out grown. It’s not true. A healthy romantic relationship is about being yourself and allowing yourself to be a child comfortably when you need to or simply want to. It also helps you deal with your childhood issues and reinvent them in ways that help you create better outcomes of scenarios that didn’t bring you happiness before. It has to be an understanding between you and your partner to take turns sometimes or be child like together.

“Forget it, it’s in the past!”

How often have we said this to those around us or even to ourselves? How many times have we been successful in forgetting it? I’d say never really. We think fooling the brain into thinking it never happened is an easy way out when really embracing and accepting the past is the only way out. Our past is ours, it has contributed to making us who we are today. Without accepting that, we cannot move forward.

One of the most important things I had to do while adulting, was accepting the conflict. The conflict of who I have become with who I want to be. Accepting that has been an ongoing journey. Accepting that it’s okay to not be okay, that I can want to change myself and that it’s not a bad thing. In fact, that’s the one thing I am truly in control of. Changing myself does not have anything to do with weakness and allowing myself to accept a mistake makes me more human, more real, kinder even.

If we changed everything about ourselves today
Each aspect that irritates the other
Every habit that needs rethinking
Things we want to change about ourselves
All put together,
If things changed overnight,
Would we recognise each other
Or our own reflections?

If we changed everything about ourselves today
What would we do for the rest of our lives?

I focused on the handwriting.

When it was the unsaid
That really mattered.
