Good Vibes
              Good Vibes

             Good vibes aren't only pastel colours             But you're smiling underneath your raincoat,
             And dainty books of poems                         as you see through the blizzard
             Not pearls and laces in aesthetic feed            Cause there's always home
             Neither a few cups of jasmine tea                 A warm meal waiting inside
             The essence and core are reliability
             And dusted with freedom to cry without
             judgementality                                    The home is a person or persons
                                                               That you can always come back to
             You might be a goth, an all black advocate        That you can always say to them
             But you can still wipe your friend's tears        'I can count on you'
             You can still hold them in your arms
             Listen to their pain in silence                   The meal is their words, comforting as dew
             Till they sleep, now feeling much, much better    Don't care if theirs as harsh as thunders
                                                               Or as soft as butterfly wings
             You can be a frantic overachiever                 Their hugs, their nagging
             With tons of class to catch                       Carves a small smile of relief
             But you can still send some texts to those you care  Over your face, then was stroked with tears,
             Offer some major to minor help                    Now is glowing radiantly
             College applications advice,
             Notes for their debate with parents about choices of  Find your own good vibes
             course,                                           Your home and meal
             Therapy session booking,                          The internet may cloud your quest
             It's gathering sleepy friends after the party     Because self-care is not just from Lush stores
             To catch the cab home                             Or at the counter of French cafes and bakeries
             By that one motherly friend, exhausted but amused  It's not just honey gel face masks
                                                               Or sparkling water in a tall glass
             Good vibes isn't swimming in rainbows and         In the frozen time of the self care Instagram feeds
             diamonds
             Because life doesn't work like that               Because healing is a war
             Because you're trying to heal your head           And good vibes are the aid
             Healing is painful                                The weapons of war must be good
             Healing is a long storm                           But, they don't have to be pretty
             Having a source of good vibes is more like
             Walking through the storm
