Unapologetically You
Be yourself when voices say to bend,To blur your edges, twist, pretend,The world may ask you to conform,But you were made to break the norm! Your laugh, your dreams, the way you stand,The truths your heart alone has planned,These are not flaws to hide away,They are your light, your truest way! Let others chase what…

Unmasked
They are learning not to hide their face,Nor shrink themselves to fit a space,For years the world taught them to bend,To mute their truth, to just pretend! But masks grow heavy, hard to bear,They dim the light that once burned there,A practiced grin, a careful pose,Cannot soothe the ache that slowly grows! And now they…

Sugar Beneath The Silence
They say my face is soft as spring,A calm the daylight loves to bring,But sweetness does not spill in tone,It lives in deeds the heart has sown! I do not paint my care in speech,Nor let my wanting overreach,Instead, I fold my love in small,Unspoken things that say it all! A hand that lingers, eyes…

Stay True
They will whisper soft of who to be,Of shapes to mould, of eyes to see,They will draw their maps upon your skin,And beg you to change the soul within! But stars don’t ask to shine bright,Nor rivers halt to please the night,A rose won’t trade her crimson hue,So why should you be less than you?…

A Love To Go Around
Love is not a cup that drains,But a river, wide and kind,Flowing softly through the hearts,Of all who dare to find! It is not kept in secret vaults,Nor locked behind a name,It multiplies with every smile,A spark becomes a flame! Share it with the weary soul,The stranger passing by,The child whose eyes still hold the…

Smiles With Daggers
They smile with sugar, their voices are sweet,A mask of gentleness on everyone they meet,But turn your back, the daggers are drawn,Their gratitude fades like dew at dawn! They feast on favours, they take what you give,Yet curse your name while they quietly live,They will cheer in your light, until you get a sudden call,Pretending…

The Strength Of Humble Steps
The tallest tree may catch the breeze,Yet bends before the storm with ease,A gentle root that grips the ground,The weather tempests safe and sound! A boastful song may fill the air,But fades when silence lingers there,While softer voices are calm and true,Leave deeper marks in all they do! No crown is earned by pride alone,Nor…
-
Perfectly Imperfect
They are the crack in polished stone,The note that trembles, not quite a tone,They stumble where the road is clear,Yet find new paths when none appear! Their edges fray, their colours blur,A patchwork soul of all they were,Not flawless, yet in every scar,A map of where their triumphs are! Perfection’s mask is sharp and thin,It…

Always Be You
The world may whisper what you should be,A shadow, a copy, a faded decree,But stars don’t compete for who shines the most,Each one is endless, each one is its own! Your laughter, your silence, your unsteady song,The edges that feel like they don’t quite belong,They are colours that paint the sky only you know,A canvas…
