L.O.V.E. Notes: Hide-and-Seek

I used to think
the best way to 
see someone 
was at a distance
but I was wrong
you don't need 
to see anyone
except your own
reflection
people show you 
what they want
you to see
and sometimes
you see 
what they
don't want you 
to know
it doesn't matter
trust me
but I do wonder
what are we hiding
from ourselves
if anything
and what do we see
when we look
at our own reflection
it should be greatness

Poder Curativo

Tenemos poder
pero por alguna razón 
vivimos en temor 
la pregunta es
tenemos miedo de fallar
o tener éxito
cuántos años te has dicho
que no eres suficiente 
en mi caso
demasiados 
yo entiendo el daño
que hacen las palabras 
especialmente 
cuando son tuyas 
tenemos que ser mejor
más amables con
nosotros mismos
a veces pensamos lo peor
y esos pensamientos
nos traicionan
porque tenemos poder
la pregunta es
qué vamos a hacer
con ese poder
espero que podamos curar
por una vez
la responsabilidad 
es nuestra 
y de nadie más

L.O.V.E. Notes: Mindset

At some point
those lessons learned
have to mean something
potential must be realized 
otherwise what's the point
I know about potential
and the biggest mistake
you can ever make 
is believing that time
has run out on realizing
that potential 
as long as you're here
breathing 
you're capable 
so ask yourself
what more could you ask for
at some point
those lessons learned
have to mean something
I hope it means
you finally believe
in your ability 
to be your best self
no matter the stakes
because if you don't
potential will only be
something you know about
never something you reach
