Only You

Everywhere I go.

Everything I see.

Everything I do.

I see “you” only.

You light the path, when darkness falls upon this earth.

You shelter me from the rain and cold, providing me warmth.

You give me hope, when all is lost.

Only you, can color my world with sunshine and rainbows.

Only you , are the one that gives me meaning in life.

Love

What is love?

It is a universal emotion, without conditions determined by society.

It comes in many forms.

Whatever form you choose, may define your lifelong happiness.

I choose “self-love” first.

“Self-love” can unleash your true inner self and project external potential.

True love is when you love yourself enough to not rely on someone else to love you.

Worthiness belongs to “you”.

Long Road Ahead

I count the days of each season of Winter, Spring, Summer, and Autumn.

It reminds me of the maple tree that changes its colorful hues of green, red, orange and yellow.

It is a long road ahead, but still, I tread on with anticipation of undiscovered places of wonder.

Each step forward, there are roadblocks and detours that I must take.

Why do I take such a path, you might ask?

I want to travel to a destination that I could call my own sanctuary.

A special place that I seek, that surrounds me with green pastures and blue lakes undisturbed by humans.

It is a long road ahead, but still, I tread on with hope and kindness to this earth.

With Or Without You

So many times, I ask myself, “Why do I love you?”

I love you, for all the things you were then and now.

I love you, for all the good and bad.

I love you, when you were young and even now older.

I love you, when you are here and even when you are not.

I love you, for all the wonders of life you taught me.

I love you, for your empathetic nature and your gentle smile.

I love you, for all the sacrifices that made me the woman I am today.

With or without you here, I still love you.

I love you mom, because you are my forever superhero.
