Boxed


When I see you again, I'm going to give you a box. It'll be a box decorated with a rose. 

In the box will be a number of things, like: 

- all the things I wanted to say to you but didn't

- all the voice notes that I sent but weren't listened to

- the poems written for you that you didn't understand

- my photographs that you didn't open or save

- the cards that you didn't keep

- the handwritten letters that you didn't read

- the conversations that we didn't have because you didn't call

- the laughter that was lost

- the memories never made

I'll give these all to you. It'll be my gift to you. Packed in a box. Tamed and tidy. Years of containment. Years of longing. Years of love.

Never

The writing was on the wall. It just took me a very long time to read it, comprehend it.... That we were never . We were never meant to be.

Frankie

 It's strange how much a four legged furry family member brings you warmth. Yesterday, I asked my doggo to sit next to me, and she did. I told her "Frankie, Frankie... I'm sad Frankie. I'm really sad". She looked at me, like really looked at me. Her eyes showed me she knows. I kept petting her and she flopped her head into my lap. Dogs bring such comfort. It's amazing. They are so full of unconditional love. They can't say it to us but they are there, listening and loving.

Own your Ocean

Do not worry about your tears.  They are your ocean. A release. Full of emotion. A swell, a tide, salty and sweet.  You are a deeply feeling woman and that is why you cry.  It's because you feel. Think about it.  You're a piscean. A fish. Water. Tears.  You are in your element.  Own your ocean.
