TO MORE DEPTHS.

That, to remain heart and body open takes an iron will.

TO MORE DEPTHS.

It takes an incredibly strong woman to be soft. May you recognize that. And treat her as such. Something to be revered.....

And when they tell you-

Woman, be soft

Surrender

Trust

Submit, even

May they remember the ferocity

It takes to be so deconstructed

The way you have teared at your skin and stared monsters,

eye-to-eye

That you are no wallflower

No feinting maiden

Rather, something to be

revered

Something belonging to the

wild.
