To those who need inspiration and positive affirmations in their lives
Dance, be emotive
Take the hand of a goddess.
Skip through the day,
Caressed by a silken bodice.
Waltz naked ‘round the floor
Never waste the night.
Float on your midnight dreams
As though a bird in full flight
Be as you are
You are loved as such
Seemingly cooled by ocean waters
Then warmed by the suns touch
Hold your lover close
Swing from the chandelier
Let nothing intervene
The time for happiness is here

sometimes, like tonight
i dream that my bed is a cocoon
and that when my alarm clock goes off
i'll be a butterfly
and be free of my
larvae
ways.
