Hey
Babe..
Ill be ok
Its just the baby in me..
Bittersweet gratitude
To be here standing..
With everything I’ve learned
Every river crossed..
Its just the baby in me..
She feels seen..
She knows her story
Wasn’t in vain..
All her secrets are safe
She just wanted something
Safe and warm..
Little did she know her heart will take her home.
Don’t worry babe
Ill be ok..
Just holding the hand
Of the baby in me..

The way we love in life..
In our own mode...
The way we love those
Who can do nothing for us.
That is the reflection
Of who we are..
Showing kindness in every matter..
To every soul we cross paths with:
The delivery man..
The shopkeeper..
The cleaning hands..
The passerby..
How we speak to others..
Is a reflection of our own character.
For every interaction is a mirror

Love me deeply
Love me true
Ohhh
Just the skin of you
All of your words..
Honest in the dark..
Im counting my steps
To your heart.
Love me deeply
love me true
Ohhh
Oh what I would give..
To live under your skin..
Warm as amber
Safe in your dream.
Like sweet vanilla
Love me deeply
love me true
Ohhh

Thank you for
Giving me the space
To be loved
To be soft
When my soul took on quiet warrior
You loved me like a princess
The chance for my body
To escape the years
Thank you for being
The one to catch my fall
Nothing but softness
In my heart..

There comes a correlation
Of moments
When you realize that you
Don’t need human acknowledgement to
Feel what you feel,
See the beauty you see,
Appreciate the joys and pangs
Your heart has discovered and endured.
None of this existence needs
To be acknowledged or validated.
The lack of connection and inquiry from others
Doesn’t make your reality any less.
It doesn’t erase what is felt,
Or your Truths.

I’m forever and eternally grateful for our shared life and bond. Buddies in the womb, in tuned to a heartbeat and a mother’s quietest wish. The shoulder we leant from time to time… Only as natural as sharing space in the womb. The way I feel your heart and soul without a single word, no land or ocean to keep your truth from my heart. Somewhere during creation we shared blood,muscle and thought. What a miracle. You’re not just my sister. You have always been a part of me. A thought, an idea, and forever my confidant. The road got twisted and bent along the way, many twists and turns.. A Truth not always seeing the light of day but we share the unspoken knowledge of our journey that led us to stand as we are today. Outside of you, me… Only Great Spirit, Allah knows how true are my words and the weight behind them. I’m thankful for what words lack in describing. I love you sister!
