She was someone that most people just didn’t understand...not for their lack of trying.
She was always kind and smiling, but she never really let her guard down.
Her eyes spoke volumes about who she truly was, but most never bothered to look past her walls to uncover her depths.
Truthfully, she protected who she was with ferocity, saving her real beauty for her special ones..the people that knew her on a different level, an intimate level..
The people she loved were much like her- old souls with empathetic spirits that could read others in ways that intimidated some.
They possessed a wisdom beyond their years and a love deeper than the worldly version of superficiality.
Like them, she needed more than shallow love and mediocre passion.
If she couldn’t give her all to someone or something, she walked away- she didn’t know how to do anything halfway- including love.
She knew she wasn’t for everyone, as there would always be the people that wanted to love her but didn’t know how.
Those were the ones that tried to love her on their terms without truly trying to unravel her mystery and engage her mind.
That was normal, she supposed, so she thought nothing of it.
The world was full of ordinary people leading nice lives with average dreams..
She vowed never to walk that path..it just wasn’t for her.
Her soul yearned for the most intimate relationships and the contentment of deep love- both for herself and others- and she relentlessly pursued the happiness in what mattered most to her.
She didn’t try to be different, she just was.
Her soul was distinctively rich and her mind was wired uniquely.
Honestly, she couldn’t tell you the “why” she was so soulfully passionate, only that her heart and soul wouldn’t let her be any other way.
She would shy away from the spotlight and reveled in the brilliant allure of the stars..
But you’d often find her soaking in a beautiful sunrise or losing herself in the dying rays of a hued sunset.
She knew who she was, even if she couldn’t really explain it sometimes.
She was an old soul, caught between a strong mind and a fragile heart..
And most of all, she was beautiful,
She was unforgettable and
She was truly happy..just the way she was.
