Desiderata

Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. 

Because today you're brillant, bold and beautiful.
And so today, I shall appreciate you.
The day is good, the night is peaceful.
And so I shall thank you.

I apologise for all the times I forgot,
For my undertakings and regret.
For all the wrong I've done,
I pour my heart out to you.

I love you,
you're great with no pinch of doubt.
I thank you for loving me, every second, every day,
even when I clothed shyness, ugliness and distaste.

I make a pact to love, cherish, adore and sing praises to you.
Not today, not tomorrow but for the rest of my life.
And so, it begins today.

A new beginning, where options lie.
But its you and me and everyone else.
We all need something to believe in.
Somewhere, somehow.

Someone.



Love,
D.
