我们轻轻的唱,去任何地方

the weight of the world
is love.
under the burden
of solitude,
under the burden 
of dissatisfaction
the weight,
the weight we carry
is love. 
|---------------------------------------------------------|
who can deny?
in dreams
it touches
the body,
in thought 
constructs
a miracle,
in imagination
anguishes 
till born
in human -
looks out of the heart
burning with purity - 

- song, allen ginsberg

you weigh me down, only in all the good ways.
your shoulder is almost as sturdy as the Rock that holds us both.

to be both

i want to be both of everything good - to fall headfirst in love (with you& yet not let my grades slide, to settle down young & yet fiercely carve out a career at the same time, to be a young mum & a kickass career woman in the future -

& why should they be mutually exclusive?
i want to have my cake & eat it, & with God i think i can.
i can, i can, i can.

你是我的关键词

这是第一次,让我见识爱情可以慷慨又自私,
有一种踏实,是你心中有我名字。

finalmente

cuando pienso en ti, mi corazón está lleno,
porque Tú, sólo porque Tú

how do i aptly describe this joy
of finally walking right with You,
of knowing that i am able to feel
unmitigated, uncoloured joy - freed
from the irrational fear of false hopes,
insecurities stemming
from knowing whatever i put my hand to
will not be blessed if i do not
seek You first, in my pursuit;
precisely bc
i do not need to hide from man,
when i do not need to hide from You, God.

the steadfastness of my heart & soul,
anchored in the ineffaceable faith
that You will bless what we have
& how we love, both You and each other -
when we uplift each other with prayer,
when we come together to honour You,
to anchor ourselves in all that You are.

the sheer freedom of knowing
that in our hearts we plan our course,
but You establish our steps -
both as a collective & as individuals.
that if You will,
nothing will be able to stand against
nor prevail against
us.

i am learning the blessing
of having our separate, busy lives -
yet having my heart bursting with fullness,
even in the hours spent apart,
knowing for sure that
our covenant
consists of no games.

there is only one rule:
to uplift.
