don't leave just yet
i wish i could sit with you and show you the beauty of this world despite its mess. we could watch the falling leaves and i could explain how they are a metaphor for hope, renewal, restoration. i could trace the edges of the leaf, trace the clouds in the sky. but what i really wish i could do is trace your hand and show you your beauty despite your mess. show you that you too can be a symbol for hope, renewal, restoration. don't leave just yet. it might be chaos but there is harmony in nature and i believe that one day you will find it in yourself.
