My happy ending has yet to find me
and yet it seems I keep on trying
Feeling down and looking out
I searched for an answer to my quest
~
Do you believe in magic?
Is what I asked the moon-
She whispered back to me
How do you think I linger here?
~
The moon told me a secret
She said nobody else knew
I closed my eyes and listened as
She whispered across the stars
~
The rain is speaking quietly
To the fire in the storm
Try to listen carefully
As the truth is in the wind
~
It doesn’t matter what they take
Not even what they say about you
It only matters what you do
When you ask the fates for truth
~
The earth was made to know you
It holds the space for life
The spark of magic that you seek
Is within you as we speak.

Sometimes I write poetry that makes no sense to anyone else but me.
It just pours out of my head all in one go and needs no editing.
It’s like the Moon sent it to me, or the universe.
The beautiful thing about these poems is that they will speak to someone who reads it, not everyone, but someone will get something they need from it somewhere in the world.
Why else would I have made it? 🌙♥️

Letter to our Queer & Trans Youth
Hey, you. I thought I’d start this letter by telling you a little about myself, just so you know who you’re dealing with. I’m an emotional dad, father to three amazing kids who we met through the foster care system, and whose presence in our lives has really transformed my sense of responsibility to the communities that surround us. The connections we’ve made with one another, with our extended families, and with the communities where we live and look for belonging have catapulted us into this whirlwind of emotional tumult which, while not easy by any stretch of the measure, has also been remarkably healing. I realize ours is really only a one-sided chosen family, since our kids didn’t get to choose to live here, but I’d like to think that they did choose to let us love them, which allowed them to grow to love us. And I think that’s where I want to go with this letter- to a place where you can find belonging and healing- even if the pathway there may be peppered with some emotional tumult.
