There’s something
There’s something about you. When you came along and sent me a message I was in a place where I asked for a sign. I’d put a question out to the universe wondering if I would ever be valued.

A message
My heart does this thing… It flutters with excitement A feeling that halts my breath and puts a smile on my lips. There’s a small sound coming from my phone, your name on the screen.

Mix Tape
I made you a mix tape. A playlist of random music. Songs which are meant to help explain how I feel. Lyrics about you and what could be.

Vulnerability
When I say “I love you,” I don’t do so lightly. Sharing my past experiences, my thoughts and feelings does not come easy.

You and me
At first glance you felt somehow familiar. The first time I heard your voice I wanted more. From simple beginnings to a purpose driven life.

An absolute fucking outrage
You may not love where you live, apartment, trailer, shack… but it’s still a house, because it’s your home. It’s impossible to say the word Vegemite without sounding a little bit Australian.

I wish
A wish is a hope given to the universe. A little spark floating into the night sky. A sparkle like a wink from a bright light as if the stars understand.

The Duchess
She lounged in the warm water. The bubbles created a blanket over her skin. Soft French music drifting through the air. Breathing deeply to find peace as she soaked.

Dangerous
Hope is a dangerous thing. A hopeful thought brings a moment of peace. But should that thought linger it brings forth expectation.

Safe
A shiny clean kitchen floor. So slick I can skate in my socks, pretending I’m graceful. An abandoned goat shed with a rickety wooden ladder.

A heart too bold
It’s easy to be kind to others, it costs nothing. Turning that kindness inward is difficult and expensive. Many people like her, she’s kind.

A blossom
A flower takes time to bloom. Its roots have to grow deep, strengthened in the soil. The right mixture of sunshine and water deepen the green of the leaves.
