That isn't love - Ali Trotta

Unless you can get over yourself enough to see the damage your selfishness will cause, then all the other goodness I see in you means nothing.

You cannot claim to love people and then pit their lives against your wants. That isn't love. It's bullshit.

--- Ali Trotta

Tiny Poem

A poem today, written just for me by the always brilliant Ali Trotta. Poetry will save us.

You watched the sun rise, a riot

of colors, bleeding softly

into the sky, bright as ink

swimming through water,

growing brighter

and more miraculous,

until everything crested,

and the day began,

stuffed full of such ordinary

hope.
