Acceptance

Original Submission by Dikela Khuse a.k.a romeo

May you be accepting like a babies hug with open-ended palms

To the cards that God has dealt you with

Because there will always be beauty in the magic of your own perception.

So if I never see you again,

Romanticise your own life.

Gift yourself the fortune to experience a love that bathes your heart.

Fall in love with the broken fragments of yourself without having to piece them back together.

May the sun caress your skin,as your soul sighs in comfort.

Familiarize yourself with songs that the ground and ocean's sing

As they are the lyrics of your breath.

Poem.
