“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you,” declares the LORD, “and will bring you back from captivity. I will gather you from all the nations and places where I have banished you,” declares the LORD, “and will bring you back to the place from which I carried you into exile.”

Jeremiah 29:11-14


you were already out of reach before I could even grasp my emotions
a dead end,
but why do i still wander in
my heart is a drifting, spinning force
a free spirit I can’t seem to reign in.

you
wildly creative, adventurous and everything in between
unashamedly yourself
what I see as lacking in myself,
you seem to fill in
is it strange that I imagined that something could have happened
maybe.
maybe something.

standing here
trapped in your gravity but wanting to be free
pleading with my own heart to let go
and forget the things that aren’t mine.
