Love

You laugh and dance 

even if there's no music

as there's music on your soul. 

You dream and wish upon the stars

even when others don't. 

You do not give up on yourself

even when you are alone,

as love overflows your spirit.

You never change who you are

as long as it makes you feel content  

and your joy kisses your beautiful heart.

You savor each day completely 

as if it was the last,

as if it tasted like chocolate.

You love yourself completely 

even when no one sees you,

as you need only your acceptance.

You shine as bright as the sun

even when it's dark,

as darkness helps you 

remember you're light.

You accept your flaws

and let go of the past,

as you know regret is pointless.

You learn from mistakes

and move on with a lighter step.

You smile to yourself 

standing in front of a mirror,

as you see who you are 

and cherish it.

You bring your arms around yourself

and whisper sweet things

as tears fall from your eyes

dampening your lashes.

I love you, I Iove you.

Oh, how your soul has waited

to hear those words from your lips.

You feel peace 

there is a distinct new emotion

of belonging.

Now you have remembered 

you are love itself

in it's original form.
