#52 You Are Loved

courtesy sunshizzle





You are loved.

Many people don't believe this,
maybe because they never heard it
but I wager you've seen it in actions
you never took any notice of.

A smile in the morning,
a hot meal prepared in the evening,
a quick hug and peck on
the cheek...
the constant chatter
from your child
who wants you to
know every detail
about their day
just because
you matter..
You are loved.

Do you know this?
Just for a moment,
take time
to reflect on small actions
you take so easily for granted.

A short text
that asks
What's up with you today?
That person who sits by your side silently
even though you tell them to go away
That friend
who calls to talk
and when it’s your turn
really listens
because to them,
it’s important...
all that you have to say.

That someone who tries to explain
even though they really
don't have to
just to show that
it’s important for them to know
that you want to understand them too.
Spontaneous jokers
that leave you breathless
while laughing,
someone who leaves work
because you don't feel well
and brings those menthol drops
you hate
to help with that coughing...


You are loved.
Don't ever forget this.
When the afternoon shadows seem darker
and the air seems more chilled than usual.

You may not have heard
the words,
but somehow, in
someway you have felt love's touch.
Someone has shown you
You've just never noticed them;
or never even listened with your heart
that much
Love lightly knocks
on different doors
to all of which you hold the keys
but if you never use them
you'll never notice the
way love speaks...
So today;
just for this moment
think of the actions
you’ve been shown
and take notice
that
you are loved...
But do you love in return?

#3 the. real. deal



courtesy: Evan Williams

He was the real deal.
Flawed
and all
his stubborn ways were a sore
but he always remained true to
what he felt for her
lovely mind
was the loveliest he'd ever met
ever meet
and he insisted on showing
that he knew this secret
by displaying his love
like that song by Sia
she had on blast everyday
 like that song
his love
was
stuck on repeat...
He felt the words
she didn't speak 
in angry silence,
gave her his voice
when she lost her speech
had stayed when
she pushed him to leave
her fears pressing
defiant
against his chest
unable to process
that he could love her
like he did
and no one else...
loved her
but there was no one else
that was
her.
He was the real deal
standing in her reflection
yet she couldn't see past
the smeared
grime
of her past
and the man
she couldn't forget
a reminder to
never forgive
him if and when
he did
what he never did do
to her what
they had done
but she couldn't see
him in her reflection
because
none of the faces
she saw had
his love
written on...
He was the real deal
and it took some time
but now she knows this
she finally found
her perfect exorcist of
devils 
that preyed
on her daily
after he taught her
how to pray
daily
she learnt to let
go and let
herself live
not from her fears or agonies
but from this love
that taught her to recognize
her own beauty,
full soul agape
from all she could be
only he understood
what she now saw
because its what 
he had seen
the real deal...
but he had become lost
amongst the warped crevices
of her broken mind
so he did not get to witness
the joy she found
when she realised
he had been
standing there
under all the grime
in her mirror
reflecting devotion
all along
but the last push
had really been 
the last one
and he gently accepted loss
and decided to become
what those faces
should have always been
.Gone.
