As-Is
Take advantage of these little breaks where you are away from your family, friends and work. They will come less often in your life. Learn to breathe in your own soul, know yourself.
Dream alone, think alone, look at the night alone and wake up to the sun alone. Know what it is like to live inside your own skin, where your spirit lives. Know it is fine and so are you.
And when the night gets cold and you curl up with thoughts racing through your head, rest them knowing that I love you, just the way you are;
As-is, like an old red car with lots of dents inside and out, high mileage and all. I miss your no car smell. My little shiny thing.
