silently it killed me
knowing your mind
and knowing you could not be mine
i wonder if you remember my lips
as they gently kissed your cheeks
i must admit i remember your words
as they flowed from your beautiful lips
love
Be love
I love because I am loved.
I’m loved more than words could ever tell and more than I can understand.
That’s why I choose to be love,
because darkness needs light,
and tears need laughter.
I love because I know how it feels to feel unworthy.
I love because Love is all I truly have
and Love is all you truly need.
there she found
beauty she never knew before
the kind of beauty that could only be found
in the love of our Father
You and I and some rockin lullaby
let’s leave the world behind
forget about our tragedies
forget about our loses
let’s leave the world behind
just me and you
and a drink for two
lets leave the world behind
with the wind carrying our hair
with the waves pulling us closer together
lets leave the world behind
forget about tomorrow
forget about our yesterdays
lets leave the world behind
because right now is all we have
and all we ever will have
A little deeper
I believe that there is beauty in this world that is far deeper than our eyes alone will ever be able to perceive.
I believe that, like the ocean, there is so much more colour, so many unseen characters, and so much depth to each and every person that you meet.
The ocean has the most beautiful pearls, just like each and every one of us have an incredible amount of love lurking within us.
You were created so magnificently, and so was every single person that surrounds you.
We each have beauty within us that is far more beautiful than any ocean pearls, just dig a little deeper, I promise you will find it.
Something beautiful.
You are the instrumental beginning to my favourite song.
You are the sunsets reflection on the clear ocean.
You are the colour on the horizon just before daylight hits.
You are the ocean waves that I can never seem to follow.
You are the rising sun that I can’t seem to get my eyes off.
I wanted to create something beautiful, so I wrote about you.
Be the light.
No matter what kind of darkness may lurk within you, always remember to deliver nothing but kindness to all.
She.
She is incredibly loveable, yet so unattainable.
She is unbelievably fierce, yet so fragile.
She is frightfully mysterious, yet so apparent.
She is so predictable in her own unpredictability.
Self love.
If you were to walk up to yourself on the street blindfolded, making you incapable of seeing your height, the colour of your hair, the way your eyebrows wince when you speak, or the shape of your eyebrows. And if you were to hold a conversation with yourself, would you think you were beautiful? You, stripped down to your rawest form of beauty. Would you hear the words that you speak, and consider yourself a beautiful person? The books you read, the thoughts you think, the love that is within you does not appear on your skin. Your looks do not deserve to have the ability to determine your beauty. Next time, when you question your beauty, ask yourself the following questions; If the whole world were blind, would I still be beautiful? If the whole world were blind, would I be even more beautiful than you ever thought I could be?
Finding beauty
I want you to know your worth. Understand that you are beautiful. You’re not beautiful for something as shallow as your looks, but you are beautiful for your ability to make me smile. You are beautiful for the way you give, without ever expecting anything in return. You are beautiful for the way you love, for the way you think, for the way you are. But most of all, you are beautiful because you are you, your mere presence enlightens darkness. You are every sunset and every sunrise combined into one. Not every person takes their time to appreciate your beauty, but the ones who do know that you are beautiful beyond measure. I hope that some days you take some time out to appreciate all that you are.
