soak

Hannah Doherty

 

You’re ok 

You’re more than ok 

You’re ready to take on 

Whatever life throws your way

 

You’re a tree 

Rooted in peace 

And love 

And it surges 

Through every part of your body

As your branches reach out 

Your palms

Outstretched 

Toward the sky 

Soaking in the warmth 

And strength of the sun 

 

Let the hot rain 

Run down every 

Inch of your body 

Reminding you 

That each part of you 

Is important and special 

 

Close your eyes 

So you can see the stars better 

Pick one 

Dedicate yourself 

To its memory

You are a blazing ball

Of light

Among millions 

Small 

Yet brilliantly 

Bright
