Soften
Soften
Soften
Breathe in
And
Out
Soften
Soften
Soften
Release
Release the tension
With each breath
Breathe in
And out
And heal within
Make space for something new
New feelings
Uncertainty
And hope
There is no need to break to heal
Give it love
It will dissipate
Let yourself feel again
Know that the story is written by you
And decide to only invite in
Delight
Your joy
Love
Is trapped within your cells
Soften
Soften
Let in the light
the spoken word
I conceive these pieces with the beat of my heart,
then birth them with the fire of my voice.
