you look so hard
into
your own heart
using
other people’s eyes
are you lovable?
are you beautiful?
are you special?
are you good?
are you a good person?
do you deserve happiness?
so much time
energy
so much of your own
heart
but you never
stop
you never
look up
& out
to see what is in their
hearts
& to wonder
are they lovable?
special, beautiful, & good?
do they
deserve
your happiness?
navel gazing

I don’t know which strikes me more, the poem or the art. Both are lovely.

i consider the writing part of the art 🙂 also, handwriting can convey a lot of emotion all on it’s own.
