I GAVE HER WINGS

I may have given you wings, but you gave my life true direction. Helping you grow has awakened new worlds within me. You challenged me to be better — to breathe with a softer heart and think with a stronger mind. You showed me what unconditional love truly means. If you ever find yourself questioning where you belong, know that you will always have an infinite home within me. Your wings are not mine to keep, but I'll forever hold them close. May my heart be the safest place you fall. May my love remind you all the reasons you can fly.

SHE TAUGHT ME HOW TO FLY

You provide a sacred love, a love that provides courage and comfort all at once. A solid ground that I continue to rise upon. My wings were built from your heart and are entwined with your enlivening strength and magic. And when you told me I could fly, it was impossible to doubt, because I have seen all that grows from being wrapped in your light. Guided by your love, I’m able to move to a place of expansion — holding on to your teachings and carrying pieces of you wherever I go. This is how I know I can reach great heights —  only through our hearts do we get the chance to meet the sky.

You gave my heart a place to land. You gave my heart something to hold — I am because of you.

Everyone needs their person — you know, the one who has been there through it all. The one who has been there through the laughs, cries and everything in between. The one that takes bad days and turns them into better nights. The one that helps put back the pieces. The one that always reminds us of who we are and the love we deserve. The one who is down for any adventure, no matter how ridiculous it may seem. You see, some people come into our lives to make it better — to make the music louder, the days brighter, and the happiness longer. Thank you for not judging me when I did something really stupid, for laughing until the sun comes up and for always being there. You will always be my ride or die, through thick and thin, friend for life.
