Them

I want to learn to love like them. My boys.
With their open hearts, big smiles, and even sloppy kisses.
I want to smile just to smile.
Laugh just to laugh.
Not care what another might think.
Be comfortable in my own skin.
I want to cry when I need to cry. 

See life with a sense of newness.
Learn to need someone.
Try new things.

I want to live my life like my boys.
To play hard.
To run full force, just to run.

I want to hold my head up high.
To be proud of what I accomplish.
To have no shame.
To have no sense of insecurity. 

I want to snuggle and know its not weakness.
To dance.
To sing off key.
To be full of smiles, laughter, and joy.

I want to learn to love my self the way my boys love me.
