Brialee Turner

The flame flickered out
As my breathe came in again,
I wished that
This year I would
Fall in love.

I fell in love with
Myself and starting to
Understand my mind
And what sparks
The wires of my mind.

And I fell in love with
The woman who
Makes life vibrant
And colorful and sparking
And bright.

And I fell in love with
My life, the experiences and
The people and the lessons
And the fact that I need to
Actually let my heart
Beat and my lungs breathe,
And my soul feel.
