you cannot love yourself and apologize for
who you are at the same time… and you don’t need to say
“i’m sorry” for the way your perfect atoms find
themselves falling into place as the beautiful
universe that you are.
– butterflies rising
The butterflies rising poem ‘you cannot love yourself and apologize for who you are’ is also the longer version of her quote ‘the way your perfect atoms find themselves falling’. Both the poem and quote are published in her poetry book ‘she’s flowers and fire.’ This poem was something that butterflies rising wrote as comfort and inspiration for anyone who has ever let others make them feel unworthy or ashamed of being who they are. She hopes that the poem feels like a little permission to put those feelings down.
