You are a key

It is such a simplicity

you are a key to yourself

and nobody else has it,

no other heart holds the lock.


So when you try to mangle that lock

 twist it

turn it

mold it to some other

a burn of such hurt

creases a lovely face.


Life holds thorns

but never let them pierce your rose

for it bleeds, bleeds, and bleeds.


Love your blooms

live that growth

and giggle at the small things.




Author's Note:

Never lose yourself. You are an ORIGINAL. No AI can ever replace you, so make your claim and prove the stakes of the world that can lose you; a glow that can shine brighter than you think.

love always, phelie.


"If you ever want to love someone, love yourself unconditionally first."
