Dear You (Dear Me)

This has been forming in my heart for a while now and today I simply couldn't put it off any longer.  It demanded to be written, to be shared. 

Dear You,

you, the one reading these words

you, with the ancient, wanting heart

you, wondering if you'll ever

get it right

i invite you to pause

for a moment

and listen to the

space

between

these

words

to the space where

softness rests and

hunger fades

to the space that

so gently

asks you to

stop

the thoughts

that doubt your worth

to stop the voices

that compare

and leave you feeling

less

there is no less

there are no shadows or shoulds

no pretty or good

no bad or broken

no wrong or right

in Love

there is only this breath

and that which breaths it

there is only you

and your giggling

fully blossomed

self

ready

ready right now

to shine

it's newborn

ancient

just right

Light
