Effortless devotion
had grit behind
that split my mind
dealt shit with grind
I quit to find
CALM
Externals—nah
Inner-turn-alls splay
Signal wires crossed
predestination sway
to self-care devotee
Placed myself first
Made myself free
Held tender-sweet affections
showered them over me

Getting Warm
welcome The World Warmth To Feelings welcome the world's warmth to feelings Toasty fire on the wood stove with a loved one welcome the world's warmth to feelings Electric or super warm blanket with hot chocolate welcome the world's warmth to feelings Laying in a warm bed watching favorite movie welcome the world's warmth to feelings sweet talk or loving conversation definitely warm the soul welcome the world's warmth to feelings Nothing like a hot shower relax muscles and warms you up welcome the world's warmth to feelings Some soup or chili is the ticket welcome the world's warmth to feelings If you have to be outside layer it up Getting warm is the feeling of worlds gift and feeling the love from others By: Kelly Vedder
