Homecoming

gentle affirmations hug my curves like a form-fitting dress

comforting, assuring

it is an unfamiliar language

but reminds me of a home i once knew

with each exchange I rediscover the beauty of surrender

soaring beyond constructed limitations

reunited with the infinite wisdom that lives within this body

and the utter perfection of this experience

such weightlessness feels like a guilty pleasure

sinful in its rebellion against a world defined by struggle and lack

to write a new narrative is as foreign as writing this piece

but i show up

because Glennon Doyle says, “we can do hard things.”

and home feels a little more familiar

this mini-letter was first created as an unrestricted outlet for my feelings and i’ve never felt a stronger calling to that, or to the expression of that through different mediums. thank you for bearing witness to this evolution & i look forward to what unfolds.
