Dysfunction I

There will be years spent

hoping desperately

for functionality

for normality

before you see

how this dysfunction

is the foundation of your perception

your purpose

your personality.

This necessity of dysfunction

in shattering stereotypes

and harboring

unconventional

original

desires out of life.

Love II

While parents were busy
teaching competition and hate
you were demonstrating
care, affection, love
for communities
not individuals, how you were
building instead of
destroying
how your lessons are for the
soul. How your
lifestyle harbors the strongest
homes; how the beauty of your
mind can withstand turmoil alone.
How everything you touch
might not turn into gold,
but rather,
into the very best that it can be.
How the way you heal and soothe
gives destruction hope.
