Words In A Journal (Happy Birthday)

words can’t describe how
complicated
i am
so honest about my feelings
incapable of silence
dishonest sometimes, too

incredible, not perfect
wild smart blind... kinda cute...

craving chocolate and love
peace, comfort, light
independent, yet needy

white orchids and poppies

vulnerable, moody, open, passionate, private,
dramatic
stubborn
very, very

reaching... shyly, boldly
all heart and soul.
