I Dig Your Soul

What you have in common is your key

What you do not is your acceptance

And what you like or do not like is your tolerance

And what you are not knowing of yet is your growth

Anyone can have sex, however can anyone have a relationship

A partnership

We all know how to meet

Yet do we all know how to stay

How to stand still in compromise when things do not go our way

When we are scared to have the love of another

And we want to run away just because we do not know what else to do

A relationship is our growing ground

And in the best case scenario

In safety

To grow and still be loved

It is a very hard thing to do when you are in argument

and then rekindle the parts where we like being vulnerable

And we open ourselves to loving in the freedom of how see love

rather than what love is supposed to look like

We can decide that, we can choose to stay and fight

Fight for an us

For a place to stay

for what love can mean if we let it

It is our acceptance of us,

Of each of us

And then the bigger us

It is the compromise that we miss when we are alone

And the promise we feel when we are together

Our lives are meant for many things

And one big one is getting along

With ourselves

And then with others

That is both the meat and the potatoes

It is the meal

It is the balance

It is not having to choose one or the other

It is living in love as you know it, learn it, breath it, look for it and become it

Our love already exists in us

Postponing it because we are waiting for lightning to strike

Rather than a partnership

A look rather than a person

Stuff instead of love first

Then we have found every way around love and not in it

In it, as we find over time is the only way to go

And we would give everything to know it

So know it

We would give everything to meet someone

So let yourself

Without judgment

Warmth does not have a look

Truth does not have a price tag

And love does not have one definition

Fill your plate

With all your thoughts in real life

And real life exceeding your dreams

That is when you know you found life in life

And life in heart

Warmth in soul

And balance that extends itself to your home, your relationships, your work

What does it look like when we have hope

We walk faster

We talk more

We involve others

We try new things

We wear different colors

And we insist on trying until we succeed

 

We sing to songs

We listen to others

It is not so important that we are “right”

 

We need less sleep

We don’t over eat

We exercise

And we say good morning

 

We listen to “happy” music

We dance while we are walking

We see someone who is having a bad day and we say we are sorry

We help someone who needs it

And we accept help when we need it

 

Hope is the promise of our souls capacity

Hope is the reason we remember why we are alive

Hope is the person who reminds us

That Hope is always nearby

 

Hope reminds us that love is available

As hope is the purpose of our actions

Whatever it is that we hope for,

We are in hope when we feel promise

Promise of ourselves in our highest honor

Honor of actions and what they may mean

 

Hope is the rainbow after the rain

The cool drink on a hot day

The right words as you needed them

The smell of something baking while you are asleep

The bath where you actually sit in the water

The moment you walk by someone you haven’t seen in years

The check that comes in the mail you didn’t expect it

The willingness to understand if something doesn’t work out

 

Hope is the basis, the reason

That we have an incentive to grow on

To say I’ll try

To change directions

And to know ourselves well enough to say no when we are stretching ourselves too thin

Hope is not being scared when the check is not in the mail

Someone we thought was right for us isn’t and we understand why

And the love of self enough to know all of these things are simply a part of life

 

Hope is alive as we are alive

Hope is the possibilities of our hearts

Given a forum to test, push and pull the best of ourselves

And find the depth in which we can be
