“Welcome to Self-Love Island”

Isolating herself from the influence of others 

So she’s able to deeply discover

Who she truly is at her core 

No inspiration from lover nor friend 

Just a solo mission 

Exploring deep within 

The things she loves

The things she adores 

Her dents and cracks 

Her scars and sores 

Learning to listen 

From a space of understanding

Flying away from old ways

Praying for a safe landing 

Remove negativity 

Cleanse her soul 

Accepting all parts of her

Young and old 

Warm and cold

Admitting where she’s hurt others 

Observing how she’s hurt herself 

Accepting things not on her path 

And leaving it for someone else 

If she could stand in the ocean

Stop fighting the waves

She would float naturally 

To where she’s supposed to be today

Learning to ride the tide 

Without wondering why 

Accepting the sun as well as the stars
