Messages from the Heart

This must be what all the books and movies are about. 

The incessant wanderings in my mind,

No matter what, can't get him out of my head. 

The way my heart feels empty without seeing him,

Even just a glimpse of him.

My every emotion dependent upon him,

My happiness is his happiness.

His sadness is my sadness.

The way our souls have become so irrevocably intertwined that we finish each other's sentences.

He truly sees the bits of me that I'm ashamed to let anyone else see.

The gory, raw pieces of me.

I feel at peace when he's around.

Just knowing he's near, makes my soul feel safe and sound.

Loving him enough to ignore the screaming flaws, ingrained in us all.

His love enough to break every wall.

This must be what all the books and movies are about. 

Learning Curves

I have learned to find beauty in the simplicity of everyday things,
I have learned to finally open my mind and spread my wings.
I have learned to laugh, even when I am unsure of the right words to say.
I have learned to prance around without care,
I have learned that it's okay to share.
I have learned to love and let my feelings fly free,
I have learned what it means to truly embrace glee.
I have learned to cry over other's lies,
I have learned to take a deep breath and have a slice of pie.
I have learned to relax,
I have learned that it's okay to not be exact.
I have learned to rejoice even when I feel I have no voice.
I have learned to embrace my faults even when it's hard,
I have learned that no one can ever become too marred.

This year has been wrapped in teachings, so much so that I constantly feel I'm reaping. And under the umbrella of grace, this year has helped me find His face.
