"Joy" Lauren Walter

Joy is children.

Joy is soft grass.

Joy is hoodie sweatshirts.

Joy is handwritten letters.

Joy is trust.

Joy is butterflies

In your stomach.

Joy is country music.

Joy is untouched snow.

Joy is throwing your head back

In laughter.

Joy is freckles.

Joy is coffee cake

On Christmas morning.

Joy is memories of her.

Joy is sleepless nights.

Joy is faith.

Joy is deep water.

Joy is waking up

Realizing it wasn’t just a bad dream.

Joy is burned skin.

Joy is brittle bones.

Joy is strength.

Joy is broken promises.

Joy is disease.

Joy is scars.

Joy is overcoming.

Joy is unexpected.
