Description live your truth
magpie

spread your wings

I know I am no
bright
and shiny thing

no piece
worth collecting

likewise I
do not begrudge you
the
sky

in your
shadow

the sun is
yours
for the taking

That link is blocked in the US, but I found one on youtube with

English subs. I can see the resemblance, particularly in the chorus.


Thank you for sharing it. <3

Echoing what everyone else knows and has expressed, you are the shiniest.

☺️ Thank you. This really isn’t meant to be a poem about me or any perceived shortcomings, but you are all so very kind.

Thanks again. <3

Thanks very much.


I hope this poem isn't coming across as despondent

or self-deprecating, because it's not meant to be that at all.

Giving (and feeling) without expectations is one of the purest things you can do in life. But the sun is also yours for the taking too

PermanentlyExhausted beat me to it. SHANE. You were the brightest fucking shining thing at the end of a year of darkness. You are, still. Consider yourself collected.Β  Β

Another one to save forever in the folder.

I've already told you how much this (and you) are appreciated,

but please repeat it to yourself about a trillion more times.

Thank you.

meant in the best way possible

perhaps it's best to give and feel without expectations
somewhere i heard once that "unmet expectations is what ends most relationships" or something like that
maybe it's best this way

also your work, as always
(this is ever unchanging)

Oh, I’d say it’s definitely best, at least for me.
