mason jar.



it took quite some time,
I’ll admit that.
it took a vast amount of patience
in order for me to find myself.

I had looked in small corners,
crevices of folded journal paper,
between pencil shavings
falling on floors.

half-full.

I stopped looking at my words, instead,
focusing on the spaces between them.

half-empty.

the day I realized that I was enough
was the day I gave someone my heart
and they handed it back to me.

filled, to brim.
