Love,
So simple, yet so misunderstood
Love,
Do what I say and what I want and give me what I need from you
Love,
Is full of big expectations of others and from others
Love,
And then red and blue make purple, because that is what is meant to be
Love,
So I cry and I get your attention
Love,
Like in the movies, let’s become someone else but us
Love,
And I squeeze myself so I can get to be number one, for you
Love,
Is never enough, we always want more
Love,
But what if instead…
Love,
You do what you say and what you want and give yourself what you need from you
Love,
With no expectations, just free, freeing others and yourself
Love,
No attention needed, so I cry just because I need to cry
Love,
For real, and become more you than ever
Love,
And I give myself the time I need to rest, so I can be my number one for me
And then…
Love,
Would be enough, enough for me and you, no craving needed
Love.
About the Creator
Helena Vasquez
I use written word as a cathartic tool in my life to disempower emotions and get clarity; hoping people can feel relieve and a sense of an AHA! in relation to their very own lives after they read my words.
Enjoy reading!

*** I'm keen to republish the interviews I did for my series with Vocal creators. It's been a few years and I thought it might be nice to revisit these wonderful conversations. I'll be releasing them one at a time for a few weeks/months.
