born from the same seed of love

hold space in your heart for longing
when you’re snuggled against your warm, soft children

let pieces of pain
creep into your moments of joy and celebration

accept the bitter taste of missing someone
as you embrace the ones that are here

there is no dividing line anymore
between the bad feelings and the good

welcome the wildness of your despair
and the depths of your burdened gratitude

they are both equal players on this human experience
they are both born from the same seed
of love.
