what is bee-a-u-tee-ful?


my fingers when they’re cold.
the feeling of my breath filling up my lungs & the feeling of my ribcage expanding. 
softness. 
being observant & kind. 
being honest. 
all the curves of my body in all of their places. 
my nose & my ears that never seem to fail me. 
my voice, & my voice when it cracks– it’s more honest that way. 
my own energy, radiating; sometimes sad & quiet but always there & present. 
my shoulder caps, my arms, the sun on my arm, my neck. 
the soft part of skin between my collar bones that acts like a sort of cave or place to rest, place to rest your head. 
determination & accepting defeat. 
mostly just being really fucking determined. 
keep on going & stop when you need to sleep. repeat.
