Tear off your skin,
the one other people built you,
because the flowers you’ve planted
are sprouting from your bones
and they are so much more beautiful
than the translucent paper
stretched across your limbs

Take the leash off of your tongue
it’s not meant to be chained
you could start wars
you could heal nations
if you just parted your lips
and spoke

Build your own house
you don’t need anyone’s shelter
so grab a ladder and a hammer
and climb into the stars
and nail a few into a home
because that’s where you belong
you are celestial and blazing
and eternal

Forge your own happiness
fashion it out of your strengths
and your flaws too
that way it will be sturdy
constant like the sky
even if sometimes it’s a bit clouded over
