How much longer?

I’ve gotten to thinking that the people that oppose same sex relationships have never experienced love 
They never experienced finding someone to brighten their day with a smile, someone that is understanding and speaks wonders to their soul
These people have been missing out on the joy of life and of love 

Their lack of such mixed with some other things has blinded them to the freedom of love 
Maybe…I don’t know, but it could be why they aren’t able to be happy to hear of another person experiencing such bliss 
To find a partner that makes their heart sing 

I read it all the time, how people have found their soulmates, their best friends… 
And I think to myself–well how beautiful is that 
And when you share such news with the world its because you want to some how have them feel at least a little bit of that love that you’re feeling 

But some people just can’t take it because they don’t know what it is 
They have closed themselves off to the love that is real and they have a rather warped view of things 
Their ego gets the best of them and it’s like a maze, no a labyrinth of things that don’t make sense and preconceived notions that lack love 

Take for instance people that follow things hardcore without room for error when they read holy texts
They forget that the golden rule clearly states to ‘love your neighbor’ –and to simplify things, ‘love your neighbor as you love yourself’
But they only repeat what they want 
They like to play games and guilt trip other people for things that make no sense 

It’s annoying and I’m totally over it 
I’m hoping that soon enough they will be over it too and finally open the door to love especially after hearing them preach so much…

How much longer though?

Self to Love

Sometimes she thought about all she wanted as a kid 
To have someone hold her hand 
To have someone accept her perspective 
Understanding that difference is beautiful 
That she will forever be beautiful 

But the world worked quite differently 
It wasn’t allowed to pick out the cards most liked 
It allowed to learn from the best and worst cards dealt 
To take in everything possible before picking another card 
Before making another move…

Something she sometimes lost sight of 
Because she just didn’t know what it was about 
She felt lost 
Like Alice down the rabbit hole 
She didn’t know where she was going or what she was supposed to look for 

There were no signs indicating what to do 
It was something she had to figure out on her own 
In her own time 
Even if it meant going around in circles until the lines became straight 
A door would open up and she would realize that she had to go around it a few times to see it 
It’s all part of the process 

The healing that she very much needed

Thoughts

She wondered, what did she do?
What did she miss?
What game was he playing?
One day it’s I’d love to see you too 
The next day is silent and blank 
Like in between takes of a silent movie 

With a white question mark to show 
In the middle of the screen 
Searching her face for answers she cannot provide 

And so she didn’t 
She was tired of questioning something she would never know the answer to 
She continued going forward 
Occasionally wondering what if 
What could have been 
What could she have changed 
What was it that she did?

And then, something changed 
She grew tired of questioning 
She grew tired of waiting 
And so she moved on by herself 
With out looking back 
With out a question 
She ventured out on her own 

Without thinking of another
She only thought of herself 
Of what would be good for her 
Of what could help her grow 
Of what could help learn 

It was all she had left 
And it was a lot 
To learn to be alone and not just be content 
But to be happy with such 
She found herself 
And she loved herself 

Somehow all it took was a little bit of losing herself…

Just 2

There they were, 2 girls in a coffee shop 
Trying to figure out their lives while drinking a coffee and a hot chocolate 
With 2 half eaten muffins on plastic plates 
Could it be more cliché?
Maybe…

But they talked about everything and nothing at the same time 
Such as how sometimes it’s best to be alone 
If those around you aren’t on the same wavelength 
Well it just means you have to keep on swimming 

They also talked about vibrators and soap when she gifted her friend a 
Portable charger with an Ayurvedic soap 
It was small, pink and pretty 
So the inevitable hiccup giggles came out 
A little soap for the prés a V hahaha 

It was about the jokes that made light of those life experiences 
That could sometimes be too much to handle 
Like the fact that after so much time she still didn’t know where she stood 
She wasn’t sure where she was going 
She wasn’t as lost as she was freshman year of college in a brand new campus 
Because this time she knew what she didn’t want 
But she still had a long way to go to find her way 

The home situation wasn’t that great either 
Not because she was misunderstood, but because no one tried to understand 
To speak her language was an ineffable thought 
Why would anyone dare to make an effort to know something that didn’t involve them?
We only live in a world with billions of people 
To learn more about them to be able to communicate better?
Well now, who does that?

No one at home
No one at home cared to see beyond their 2 hands 
Beyond their world and their cloud 
And that was the problem 
She would never be able to go forward when those around her 
Would constantly work to pull her back…

It was time

To let go without turning back

What did he know

The reason as to why she kept herself 
It was simple 
She just didn’t feel getting judged by a stranger 
A stranger who barely knew her on the surface
Yet would have plenty to say about her 
And what she ‘should’ be doing 

The reason as to why she preferred her friends 
It was that 
They knew her well 
They knew her struggles and how far she had come 
They knew all about the progress she had made 
They knew all about the process

But someone from the outside
Well they wouldn’t know much 
And she wasn’t going to tell them either 

But then he came along 
And she made it quite clear 
She wasn’t there to be judged 
She didn’t care to validate her being 
To a stranger of 24 hours or 24 days 

When he came along 
She made an attempt to push him away 
To keep him away 
But he just wouldn’t go 

And then he did it 
The very thing she had told him not to do 
He made assumptions 
He thought he knew her 
He said what he did 
He judged her 

Validating her adamant reason 
As to why she kept to herself 

He knew not of her struggles
He knew not of her triumphs 
He knew nothing of the path she had made 
Becoming a better version of herself 

A work in progress 

And he nothing of it...

But how???

He was on a roll 
Asking her questions 
Making her question 
What things are 
How should they be 

Who is to say what’s really right?
Who is to say what really is the key to happiness?

And so she thought 
To herself, not aloud 
Not with him 

She thought about how great money is 
It can buy a lot of things 
But she didn’t really care for things 
What she really lived for was those moments 
Those moments that like in that ever so famous cliché 
Takes your breath away 

Alas, it was true 
At least her truth 
She cared not to be wealthy in money 
It would be nice, but not a priority 

She just wanted to be happy 
She just wanted to be free
She knew very well that she could be broke 
Broke but happy 

Broken and glued together and sewn back in so many places
But still happy 
Because it wasn’t all that bad
There were moments
Moments life gave her that were just as beautiful 
As all the hurt she had once experienced 

But what about him?
How could she tell this to him?
How could she make him feel?
How could she help him enjoy 
The feeling of the wind zipping past his face
While he ran on the field…

How could she teach him to love early mornings 
The kind in which the sky is seen 
With clouds of pink 
Like neon cotton candy across the sky 

How could she teach him to adore 
Those loving whispers 
The ones made each night 
Right before she said goodnight 

How?
