Your heart was meant to find mine.
Together we will start a new lifetime
in this little house I made a home.
Motherhood
Some days you will feel inadequate.
You will question whether you are good enough.
You will lack confidence.
You will wonder how you are supposed to
raise two little boys into two amazing men.
You will feel the weight pressed on your shoulders.
You will doubt your abilities.
But, know this.
It will pass.
Every mom questions her sanity.
But, you got this.
Momma, you got this.
You
I trust you.
I support you.
I know you.
I love you.
You See Me
You told me once you couldn’t read people’s expressions, but you’ve somehow managed to learn mine.
Just You
Every quiet moment.
Every loud one.
I want to share them all with you.
hope(full)
When forever becomes a thing again.
Loyalty is a verb. Love is a verb. I can’t remember where I heard that, but it’s true. My heart is so full right now. It is crazy to think it has been two years since I started a new life all on my own. If you would have asked me then where I saw myself in the future, I’m not sure it would be here. I was so jaded and blinded by betrayal. I found parts of myself that had been missing for years, but also lost parts of me that had been there all along. I feel like I have been blessed with a real partner. Someone who appreciates the things I do. Someone who adores my body. Someone who can communicate at a high level. Someone who doesn’t shut down and bottle things up. I have found a man who sees me and loves me for exactly who I am. I am grateful for him and this new life I never expected.
So my heart stopped and I nervously laughed
I thought about all the ways
things could change when I finally
told you I loved you.
I thought about all the ways
things could change when you finally
met my children.
But, I never once thought about the ways
things could change if
they said they loved you.
help me
I am a powerful woman
and I hide all this insecurity
under my strength.
Maybe I do want that Prince sometimes
I want someone who will
put me first sometimes.
I pour all of my heart into everyone else.
I lose myself often.
Just show me love
with your hands
and your time.
Make me feel like there is nothing
else in this world but me.
I want to hear all the ways
I am amazing.
I want to be showered
with affection.
But I give too much,
take too little,
and I don’t know how to stop.
