The butterflies rising poem ‘sometimes this world feels like the heaviest place that we could ever know and it aches just to breathe here’ is a full poem to her 2018 micropoem ‘all of these beautiful things sunlight, goodness, stars, you’.
sometimes
this world feels
like the heaviest place
that we could ever know,
and it aches just to breathe here.
but then i look around,
and there are all of these
beautiful things… sunlight,
goodness, stars… you.
– butterflies rising
The poems are both written about how even in this heavy world, there is such beauty here to be in awe of and to be grateful for.
