I love myself
I am loved by others
I can do cool & important things
I am a holy creation
I am capable
To face whatever is next
If I love myself
I will love others in return
Praise be to God
For making me.

It’s time to go
But I long to stay
Why must we go back
Towards obligations
Waiting for me like
Mercenaries in the night.
I know it is what must be
Rhythm and responsibility
If I were to stay
I would fade away as a mist
You have things for us to do.
Give me
Courage to keep going.

I used to hold my thumb
Just beneath your nose
To feel your soft, warm breath
Going in
Going out.
Place my palm on your belly
Watch it moving subtly up
Then down again.
I would shoot up in the night
Perform this routine
With you right next to me.
Now I gently turn the knob
Open the old, creaking door
Knowing the noise won’t wake you.
I do this most every night
Watch your peaceful face
So big in your big bed.
Analyze your flushed, full cheeks
See the sheet rise, then lower
With your every breath.
You may never know
Just how precious you are
To me.
It is a quiet & brief moment
Thank you, God
Thank you.

Today I long to wear only green
Accentuating bright, olive eyes
To don backless shirts
Revealing glorious sharp shoulders
Turn my head at a right angle
Showing the long line of my neck
To drink & be merry
Gifting the world a boisterous laugh
I desire deep conversation
Bringing questions many fear to ask
God teaches me here
I am fearfully & wonderfully made
God is not blessed
By self depreciation
I am His cherished creation.
