Life, love..

There is a whole universe of light and love out there..... 

We can't even begin to describe, understand, or experience the greatness of it...

BUT you can get a taste of it. 

Keep your heart and mind open ..

And you will.

A.S.

Real love

Anyone can do flowers and spirits. However pleasurable, that's not at the root of love.

Love not only makes you dream and sigh, it rattles your bones.

Real love can shake you, break you and make you brand new.

Real love finds you..

You don't find the answers till you're fast forward looking backwards in awe of the whirlwind your soul journeyed.

A.S.

Content?

We need to live in a world content and happy in our own skin. The only way that'll happen is when we stop worrying about other people and focus on working on ourselves. Try to work on being the best version of yourself. Let's not add to the noise of anger,sarcasm,hate,jealousy and selfish insecurities that take so much headspace and clog our streets.

Father's day

Happy father's day
To the man I wanted to know,
But only saw fragments of.
Some troublesome, some good..
I still loved you.

Happy father's day
To the man who wanted to,
But didn't follow through.

Happy father's day
Not because you understand me,
But I understand your path is one only you can walk.

Happy father's day
Even though you didn't raise me..
You still praise me.

I love you too

Gems

What gems are those that accept you with all your intricacies and flaws. 

That accept you for all that you are, rather than for all the things you aren't. 

After all, we're all diamonds in the rough.. 

What gems are those that have seen many shades of you..

Many phases of you, and still accept You. 

Gems are those that have never turned away.. 

Gems are those that see you as the mirror that you are.

Sister

There's nothing like a bond with your sister, especially one who was there with you from the start of conception, to experiencing our first moments at birth, and walking through life attached at the hip. There's nothing like a sister who knows your soul just as her own... A kindred soul, more than a mirror, she makes you feel whole.

All I ever wanted

All I ever wanted was something stable, something secure.
Someone I could be sure of..

A love as real as knowing my own soul.
Someone that really was there to share..

Not to simply take all that they could..
Someone willing to be more than a shadow in my life.

Someone I could stand with.

In the center of it all..

Her story

The person you think you see, is more than you know..
More than you could ever believe.
She has seen darkness and has felt pain.
She doesn't smile in vain..

She is not naive as she may seem..
She sought and chose her happiness.
Unbeknownst to you, her every smile had been fought for.
Despite the darkness that tried to grip her,
She ultimately found her freedom.

Nothing can take this newfound reality away from her.

And nobody but the Creator alone.. 

Will ever truly know..
Her story.

Shadows

We can't cling to the shadows of our pasts, and we can't live in the future of what isn't promised us.. We are standing here now, we have made the journey thus far... Let us embrace ourselves now. Take a deep breath and smile.

Life is bittersweet

Feeling quite reflectful... The more you learn, the more you realize the less you know. The older you grow, the more your soul wants to know. Life is bittersweet... You can not have light or darkness without the other.. Embrace them both and make your choices.

I hope to forever be thankful...ameen.

A.S.

Thankful

Thankful for those I love in life,in touch or not,near or far. Never so far but a thought away and nestled in my heart.

Stil have me

One day when I am gone..
The moment I leave this fleshy capsule..
You'll feel the physical ache deep in your heart, that of which physical loss brings our earthly being.
But in my heart of hearts, I do hope.

I hope you will remember me for what I am.

I am more than flesh and bones...
I live beyond this place we call home.
I live in my soul, I am thought, I am energy...
We are by His grace, transcendent

When this body tires of me,
It will be the only thing to leave.

You'll still have me.

Genuine love

They may throw pebbles, 

And they may throw stones.

They may judge based on their lie, on little they know.

They may try to dismiss our reality, based off their own.

Smoke and mirrors.

It matters not.

We have endured together and continue on this path.

We will always grow and only we truly know.

This love is not a show, its genuine and real..

And because we remember, and because its true..

We persevere.

A.S.
