february

sometimes
when you feel just

blah


you remember the way you felt when you tossed the covers aside that morning.
and that feels good.
it feels better.
i want to live the
fresh
zest
sustenance 
each blah,
i want to savor the sunshine and the breeze and a friend to talk to who is listening.
i want to draw with chalk on the sidewalk for no reason and take my time.  i want to love what i do and who i have become and accept the things people compliment me on.
i want to work so hard on myself that i never stop
but stop
to stop
and see
this moment.
hope
opportunities,
grace.

pull back those covers, there is so much more.

desperation

there is nothing
so
refreshing
as true
desperation.

for you
for truth
love
forgiveness
grace
peace
moving on
moving forward.

i am getting over this stuck
rut
place of similarity
of over
year
over
a
lifetime
of
wrongness.
done shoving a square peg into
a round hole.  like a frustrated toddler with a difficult puzzle piece.  
i am giving the pieces back to you father.
the pieces of my puzzleheart.
i am 
i am
desperate for this breath of fresh breath that you have given me
i take it with joy!
home at myself, home at you, home at heaven's window.
your love, the greatest risk of all gave me this hope
anew.
an old.
love is coming.
i will wait for it.
you have made me to wait for it, created me for this struggle.  i pull in.
desperate.  loving your freshness, your life.  
love.
