Thank you, Universe, for cheering me on Even when I was weird, loud, or gone. For the nights I mooned buses and laughed at the sky— You didn’t flinch. You just winked back, sly.
Thanks for the crows, the number 137, For the *** that pointed its way to heaven. For storms that shook when I shouted my name, For silence that answered and didn’t shame.
Thank you for loving my sacred mess, For seeing my soul through the holes in my flesh. For letting me ask, “Is this ego or fate?” And whispering, “Nope—it’s just great.”
Thank you for signs, for thunder, for tears, For not letting me shrink to the shape of my fears. You clapped from the void when I danced in the dark— Even naked, confused, or missing my spark.
So this is my thank-you, my middle-finger prayer: To the weirdos, the watchers, the stars who still care. And to you, great cosmos, wild and wide— Thanks for riding with me on this ***-baring ride.
