Loosen
Don’t prepare your anxieties
Spring it on them
The shot of bourbon
The meal
The comedy
The satire
Live your life
Dance
Make out
In the kitchen
Loosen
Breathe
You will live
And we all will die
Create
If you will
Create
Poetry
memory
Create
Or don’t
Don’t even record it
Just do
Just be
In the quietest way
Whatever way
And manner
You feel free
-E
Dear you
I know you feel like nothing
I know you feel like you’re overwhelmed
On your own
Feel it
You’re doing better than you think you are
Alnitak, is the brightest class 0 star in the sky ….found in Orion’s Belt…
1,262 light years from earth
Your light
Even overwhelmed
Even isolated
Is like this blue super giant
I know you think there are thousands just like you….
But this is you
Keep going
You’re doing better than you think you are
You’re unique
You matter
And when I look across the city
When I look across the room
When I look…
I always see you
I don’t know how not to…
-E
