Etoile

There are so many things

You share with others

Your favorite color purple

Your favorite shape a star

But the things that remind me of you most

Are so deep and so far

Shared when you feel comfortable and safe

When we both can recharge

These things come out when you smile

And when you lie

When you laugh

Or even when life gets scary

And you want to cry

The strength in you most people see

Is only a fraction of what youve shown me

When you can be silly

Then in one second be real

This is just one of the ten million ways

Your strength is revealed

So save it if you choose

Only show people of worthy

To know your heart truly

Dont ever underestimate

Your own inner beauty

Each day you learn

And make more mistakes

Knowing you have

Proves your greatest strength

Never being that girl

Who secretly aches

The one who sits hoping

The dreams you have

You make
