A Poem For Jo

I been through so many journeys in this lifetime 

The journey to self love has been my favorite. 

During that time I discovered me and everything that makes me smile 

Where your past self meets your higher self for a cup a tea. 

You two agree that the life before wasn’t yours to keep. 

When you look at your past self, give them a hug and thank them for getting to this point. 

Self love is loving your flaws and embracing your unique soul.
