there is no perfect poem
no perfect man
with perfect pen
to draw together perfect words
and yet I keep on writing
through my faults
with perfect hope
the folly of a perfect fool
there is no perfect poem
no perfect man
with perfect pen
to draw together perfect words
and yet I keep on writing
through my faults
with perfect hope
the folly of a perfect fool

Sometimes everything has to be enscribed across the heavens so you can find the one line already written inside you. Sometimes it takes a great sky to find that small, bright, and indescribable wedge of freedom in your own heart. David Whyte

All you touch and all you see / is all your life will ever be
